Are they legitmate charges to your clients? Were the clients billed?\n\nRemember there is lag time , look at your statements\nwhen you make a purchase, sometimes it doesnt show that it was processed until the next day, for several ones.\n\nOne of them is that the merchant forgot to batch out.\n\nDo you even know your only company policy?\n\nWhat didyou say to him or her when she submitted the receipts to your accountant?\n\nOr are you an employee looking for a way to get her fired or in trouble?\n\nWhy doesn't your company audit these transactions?\n\nWhy did your company accept the charges?

If you're asking if an employer pay interest on company credit cards that the employees use to purchase trips, supplies, lunches and whatever, then yes they do.\n\nIf you're asking if employers have to pay for things an employee buys and says are work related - that depends on company policy. Many times you have to submit a purchase order for approval BEFORE you make the purchase of office supplies, equipment, etc.\n\nIf you're asking if they have to pay for your clothing, shoes, car expenses, etc., the answer is - only if you have an employee contract that states that they will pay for them. So if you don't have an employee contract - don't buy an Armani suit.\n\nJust because a certain type of work requires a certain type of uniform doesn't mean that you'll be reimbursed either. I worked in doctor's offices and hospitals and was responsible for paying for my own uniforms.\n\nQuestions of a legal nature regarding employers and wages and reimbursements can usually be answered at the US Department of Labor and the State Department of Labor sites listed below.\n\nIf you're not in the US, then check with the appropriate Ministry, Bureau, or Department for your country.\n\nAdded: I've just read some of the answers and frankly I would not purchase anything for work on a personal credit card. Any legitimate business would be set up to give you an expense account or a company credit card.

Yes she will have to pay the dept.simply because her name is on the card..........my boss was going through a divorce and asked his lawyer if he was responsible for his wife's credit card depts the lawyer told him not if his name did not apear on any of her cards....if his name was on the card ...yes he would be responsible.

Credit card companies protect you against fraud if someone steals your credit card information.  I've had it happen, and both Mastercard and Visa were more than happy to cancel the charges and investigate the crime. \n\nShopping online is safer than giving your credit card to the waiter at a restaurant. They dissappear behind a wall for a minute with it and who knows what they do with it.  If they are honest: nothing... if they aren't:... you get the idea.\n\nShopping online is very convenient as long as you don't mind waiting for shipping.  I never buy electronics locally if I can avoid it because I always get a better deal online than anything available in this city.\n\nSome useful websites for shopping online:\nhttp://www.pricegrabber.com\nhttp://www.pricewatch.com\nhttp://www.dealtime.com\nhttp://www.ebay.com

Speak with an Attorney about this. Sometime some company don't have to abide by the POA, or they choice not too. \nGet an attorney involved, and I'm sure things will flows after that.  I do hope you are sending the company the copy of your POA, not the original!\n\nI think the company concern are who will be the person paying for all this credit card charges. Just to let you know, being given the condition of using her card, you are liable for all these charges.  Even though, your mom's name is on the card.  The company will be going after you for this.  I do hope you are aware of this.

It depends.\n\nIf your credit card provider is a national bank, it is likely that they are regulated by the Federal Trade Commission for consumer offerings.\n\nIf your credit card is a state chartered bank and you suspect a problem, you should contact your states attorney general.

Stopping the charge on your credit card isn't going to stop the creditor from coming after you. It just means they have to sue you for it.  \n\nThey will also be able to locate your credit report and place a report on it, even without a SSN.  They have other matching info, like phone number, address, and more.  \n\nThose gym/spa memberships are tightly worded, I wish people would read them more carefully before signing them.

I would ethier put a stop payment for that account, or close the account all together. The transaction will appear on your statement. I would check into this right away. After you close the account, I would advise you to seek a lawer. You can take legal action againts this company. Charging without permision is called fraud. You may be able to get some of the money back if not most of it. depending on your credit card company you may be able to do a chargeback, that reverses the transaction.

I did a search and nothing solid turned up aside from this site:  http://www.adamswells.com/~firstpres/fpc4.htm\n\nI suggest you contact your credit card company and inquire for more details.  If they aren't able to furnish any more details  about the business that charged you I suggest you dispute the charge (you have every right to).

It is handled - county by county. File in the county you do business in.  Also as for an arrest and a repayment plan for the offender.\n\nTexas also has jail time for this offense if over a certain amount and if the offender does it often.\n\nCall your county attorney and ask for the hot check division

This isn't your fault.  Your mother should have protected her credit card information better.  You're doing her a favor.  Teaching her a valuable life lesson.  She should know to trust no one.  \n\nIf that doesn't keep you from doing a couple of years in jail, quickly check yourself into a Twelve Step program for Shoppers Anonymous and hope you get a liberal judge who will place you on unsupervised probation when you get out of the program.\n\nWait - I'm getting a message from the beyond.  It's a little fuzzy, let me look into my crystal ball.  Oh, could this be an attempt at spam?  Are you getting paid everytime someone clicks on those three links you provided?  Yes, the vision is getting clearer.  Spam it is.

No, it is not.    There are some "minor" crimes involving prescription fraud, such as having prescriptions written to the name of an insured relative, rather than pay retail price.  Most cases of prescription fraud, however, involve drug use and drug abuse. \n\n"Although there has been some debate as to what qualifies as a white-collar crime, the term today generally encompasses a variety of nonviolent crimes usually committed in commercial situations for financial gain."

First off she can and will be held jointly responsible. Second she needs to talk with the bank and tell them that these checks were fraudently written. Next have her file a police report for the checks. She may want to speak with the prosecuting attorney before going to the cop shop because if she has a warrant they will arrest her and sort out the matter later.

Most likely, you are the potential victim of a con.  Notify your local law enforcement and/or your State's Attorney General unless you are certain you dealing with the bona fide representative of a financial institution authorized to engage in business in your state.  If you believe you are dealing with a bona fide financial representative, then you need to contact your personal attorney.  Only they are capable of answering this question correctly.

Depends on the company offering the card.  Check your cc info or call company rep and ask them.\n\nRival
