If they dont repay, then contact the authorities. I am documenting everything, including a letter that I intend on giving to them tonight.<BR/><BR/>I just hope that the threat of police action doesnt come back to haunt me.<BR/><BR/>It was a poor decision to lend money, the adage is "neither a borrower nor a lender be" right? <BR/><BR/>Needless to say, i have learned my lesson.

So, they obviously think they can take advantage of you. If you disregard it and take no action, then they'll just tattoo "sucker" across your forehead and scheme for the next way they can get some more funds out of you.

We've been approached before, too - though so far only for the fundraising bit, and asking to whom the check should be made usually gets a "never mind" response.<BR/><BR/>I agree with everyone that you should move foreward contacting the police (I saw you posted to MPD-5D as well). My immediate reaction would be to go one step further and contact DCFS about the child being used as a pawn in this scheme...Again, that's really just my visceral response, and the possible legal implications stemming from check fraud may cause a fissure in the family.<BR/><BR/>We've also been navigating "getting the kids on our side," and I really liked <A HREF="http://www.inshaw.com/blog/2006/04/long-haul.html#comments" REL="nofollow">Mari's comments</A> on her own blog about what odd jobs you can have the boy do and what he can be paid for a legitimate job well done. At this point you know that what happened wasn't his fault, and there's still room to give him a safe space with some rewards he's obviously not receiving at home.jaimehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02066196339503671651noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21586244.post-1145908100561299252006-04-24T14:48:00.000-05:002006-04-24T14:48:00.000-05:00I agree with the Libertarian Republican's last sta...I agree with the Libertarian Republican's last statement regarding approaching the neighbors. But approach the subject in a way that allows the possible perps to save face and maybe "correct" the wrong on their own.

I would avoid a personal confrontation with your neighbor. If they ask for assistance tell them that your bank had questions about your account and that YOU are now having financial problems and may need a check from them.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21586244.post-1145900976432330172006-04-24T12:49:00.000-05:002006-04-24T12:49:00.000-05:00The answer is easy, but I don't have to live next ...The answer is easy, but I don't have to live next to your neighbors. You definitely should file a formal complaint with the police and ask them to seek restitution on your behalf. That is your bare minimum obligation as a citizen. <BR/><BR/>If you are adventurous, after you have filed your formal complaint, you should contact your neighbors and inquire as to whether they have had suspicious transactions. Then you should present this information to the police as well, hopefully with neighbors filling out affidavits. There should be zero tolerance for this activity.The Libertarian Republicanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12179334361807417305noreply@blogger.com
