What is the name of your state? Florida
Does anyone know how Mastercard settles on a fraud case?
A family friend (no longer) used my father's credit cards and ran up a bill of $5,000. To successfully get the money back, he was told by the company to press charges with the police.
What happens if my father drops the charges? (friend is agreeing to pay the bill off, we're sure he will and don't wish to prosecute)
Or if the unauthorized use was traced to this family friend but he doesn't cooperate and drags this into court... we don't want that.
We just want Mastercard to settle this, but they told my father to press charges.
We would rather this friend get help (they have mental problems) and NOT go to prison. Our father is being uncooperative and is worried about Mastercard's policies. He wants to get this over with....and since the report was filed he cannot accept payment from the family friend. He seems to think this is too far along.
Any legal advice would be greatly appreciated!
