Someone used my credit card and now refuses to pay

[laurlynlee]

Please help me!

I worked as a customer service associate at Circuit City and I became friends with one of the managers who did not get approved for a Circuit City card and since they have nice financing deals he asked to use my card and so I let him. He had been making relatively regular payments until a few months ago when he just stopped all together. I don't know what to do, or what I even can do. I can't afford to pay for his stuff. He still has the TV and laptop that he bought but now he will not answer any of my calls or email and he won't make a payment. I've left messages but no response. If it comes to it would I have a good enough chance of winning in like a small claims court? Is there anything in the manager thing? Like I felt like I didn't have a choice or my job was on the line or something? Can I report the items stolen since apparently they're mine now since I have to pay for it? I really do not know ANYTHING about legal stuff and I really need help!

Is this manager still working at Circuit City? You've got a problem, unfortunately, since you voluntarily paid for these items. You can't report them stolen since they weren't stolen. But you may want to tell the manager that you'll have no choice but to report what happened to the company and they can decide what to do (I might do that if I needed leverage.) Perhaps that will jolt him into attending to this important matter. If he doesn't budge then this is a small claims case. I wish you luck.
