What is the name of your state? PA
In 2000, I was in a car accident, not my fault, and my car was totaled. My grandparents lent me their car and offered to buy a new one for me. They wanted me to have something new, less problems they said. They told me since they didnt need the money,(they were well off at that time) that anything I gave them monthly would be put into a CD to earn interest. They said that I should be saving money and it would teach me responsibility, I agreed and paid them a total of almost $4000 over 2 years. I knew it was going into the account because she would show me deposits made and interest earned on the bank statements. I recently had to quit my job because of health reasons, had no income and let them know of this. They said it was ok and that I didnt have to give them any money. After I got married, it seemed as though the sh*t hit the fan and she sent me nasty letters saying she was going to make me sell the car if I didnt repay her. There is nothing to pay! She told me that the money from the account is gone, they took it out, and I confirmed that w/the bank. They are taking me to court over this. Can they change their mind in the middle of the agreement like that? This was a gift! They've also lost alot of their retirement money recently because it was in stocks. I think they are just looking anywhere they can for some money!
