Today, while at the mall, a lady dropped her credit card while in line to buy something. I came over, picked it up and gave it to her just for her to shove it in my hand and scream, "She's stealing my wallet! My wallet!" The police came. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I saw a woman drop her wallet in the grocery store. Being a good citizen, I sprinted after her to return it. She heard me running, panicked and took off. I ended up chasing her through three aisles saying, “Wait! I have your wallet!” Security got involved. FML
Today, I went to the store, but after I'd selected my items, I saw that I'd forgotten my wallet. When I tried to explain to the cashier, he thought that I was trying to steal and called the cops. My roommate had to come to the store to save me. FML
Today, I was walking down the street, when a little old lady bumped into me and fell over. I helped her up and she thanked me for being "such a nice young man". It was only an hour later as I was in line at the store that I realized she'd pickpocketed my wallet. FML
Today, while at work, a woman left her credit card at my register. I tried to return it before she left. Seeing her getting into her car, I jogged after her and yelled, "Wait." She ran over my foot. FML
Today, I had gone to the store and bought a new wallet. 5 minutes later a security guard asks for my receipt. Turns out I had dropped my receipt. Some guy had picked it up and pretended I had stole his wallet. The guard confiscated my wallet because the guy had "his" receipt to prove it. FML
Today, at work, an old lady came through my line to buy some groceries. She told me she lost her purse and was a little short. It was busy, so I pulled out my little purse and gave her the money she needed. A few minutes later she returned with my boss, insisting that my purse was hers. FML
Today, while bagging my groceries at a store, a lady came over to me, took a good look at the food I'd bought, picked out an item and put it in her bag. When I confronted her, she called security on me and told them I wanted to steal her stuff. I got thrown out and she walked away with a smirk. FML
Today, my aunt and I went shopping. When we got to the store, she said she forgot her wallet, and I told her I would buy some things for her. When we were at the checkout, I was a dollar short. She said, "Oh, I'll get it!" and pulled out her wallet. FML
Today, I went to the store to buy some groceries. Several hours later I realize that I can't find my wallet. After looking all over my house and then the store parking lot, I had my credit cards cancelled. On the drive home, I feel something under me. It was my wallet. FML
Today, after shopping alone at a grocery store, I was taking my groceries back to my car when a kid grabbed one of my bags and ran. Deciding not to risk leaving the rest of my groceries stranded, I didn't chase him. Later, I realized that was the bag my credit card was in. FML

I'd adVisa you to tell the police the truth. They can't charge you with any crime after they Discover what she did. I'm sure you'll be Amexonerated.

Wallet looks like you just got trolled. I hope the police understood OP.

Sucks right when you want to share a little kindness only to have it shoved right down your throat.

Hopefully there's CCTV so they can see what really happened.

The moral of the story: If you find a credit card, buy yourself a tank of gas and then toss it out in an empty field. People suck these days, so you can either swim against the tide and try to be decent, or go with the flow and be a sucky person.

Or you can buy a couple of t.v's, game systems, a horse, then toss it out.

#20, you might have a confrontation with a human if you try to buy those things with a cancelled credit card. You need to up your sucky person skills.

A tank of gas, perdix? That'll cause them to go broke. That stuff is expensive.

What a nutjob. Seriously can't people just appreciate the good intentions? Hopefully there are witnesses to catch this lair.

Are you people new to FML? Seriously. If there's on thing I've learned here it's to never help out my fellow man and only look out for myself. Well, I kinda did that already, but FML has reinforced that belief.

FML is a very biased place to come for reinforcing beliefs like that, considering that there is, by definition, not going to be any stories of nice things happening to people.

Next time do the smart thing and just take it. Use their ID to find their living place and duct tape it to their door. It's like being a cross between Robin Hood and Santa, and if you wouldn't take that opportunity I wouldn't even spit in your direction.
