to the asshole that stole my wallet from the women’s locker room at dalplex on monday night (between 7-9pm) and then spent $800+ on my mastercard- eff you. i hope you bought something REEEAALLY eff-ing important with that $800 dollars, soooo important that you NEEDED to go into someone else’s backpack and steal a drivers’ license, debit card, credit card, and $60 cash that wasn’t yours. i hope you choke when you are cashing in MY juice-eh card for 1 free juice after MY 10 purchases. i had that wallet since grade 12.

Doesn’t MasterCard pay that back?The rest of the stuff lost sucks, but as long as you get the $800 back. Someone skimmed my debit card. I was pissed. Then the bank gave me the money back and I was cool. They could probablly use the $400.
that is what i was thinking, they lost 60 bucks, a wallet and will have to replace some id.THat sounds like a night out at the clubs downtown for a few every weekend.
I think the MC outcome depends on whether the $800 was charged before or after it was reported stolen. If he reported the theft after the charges hit, he may be SOL.
Why the fuck would you ever leave your wallet in a locker? Let this be a lesson learned, young one, take only what you need (drivers licence, money) and leave the rest of that shit home, especially the credit card..
floyd,mastercard has given back the money in many cases even if you didnt call just that second. They give you grace as in many cases, you dont know you are a victim at the time the stuff was purchases.
I feel your pain, I had my wallet stolen twice, and miraculously, gotten the wallet back. The first time nothing was taken, the second time my ID and debit card was gone. People are fucked. Having your wallet stolen is a horrible experience.
