Don't trust friends!!!! - Page 2

That is most unfortunate.
I wouldn't say we should not trust any of our friends, but when it comes to issues related to personal identities, I would not want anybody other than my family members to handle them.

Unfortunately it's true, in the end you can only trust yourself.

Yeah, but sometimes you gotta trust someone. I mean there are times when you have to depend on some or the other person. Cant help it, only be careful in future.

To be honest, I don't trust anyone. I had a housekeeper who "borrowed" my car without my consent. When I called her the c---- word she returned it. About an hour later I realized my wallet was missing and called police.

I wouldn't put myself in a situation to even have to wonder if someone's going to take my information. I keep my wallet with me and I don't let people have access to my email.

Heh I have done background check to all of my friends that I trust a lil bit, and I have even found out some interesting things...

Once a friend photocopied my NIC and bought a mobile connection using it and used it to call innocent people and harass them. I only knew it after I got a termination letter from mobile company for the connection I never bought...

One time I had my friend make a copy of my driver's license, only to find out that she had saved it to her computer. I didn't find out about it until a few company's started calling me months later that my account was past due. When I figured out what was going on I went to the Post Office and did a change of address form , with my name from her address to mine.

That ***** had bought a $5,000 dollar HP printer, had five cell phones in my name and accounts set up to buy paper and ink for "my" printer.

Needless to say, that has been one of hardest things to overcome..try explaining that one to bill collectors. It was bad enough having to turn her in to the police for fraud.

She has since moved and has a website for pet grooming..I keep constant tabs on her but it doesn't do me any good. You can get a judgement but that doesn't mean that they are going to pay you. UGH!

For one thing I don't believe she was your friend. She was just someone you knew. A true friend would never do that. Sometimes people will latch on to you if they know that you have something.
