My friend asked me to go to the store with her one day, she asked me to use someone elses credit card for her to buy stuff, and i told her no way im not doing that, so she said fine i will. But i thought she was seriously kididng . Im kept telling her sure you will. She always says things and never does it. She asked me to drive to the store because she had no gas. We go in there and she starts buying really expensive stuff, to be safe I went far away from her cause I did not want anything to do with it if she was really commiting fraud. This happened six months ago and I can not stop thinking about it. I didnt report her cause I didnt really have proof she went through with i I didnt see her use the persons card cause I walked away. I hope she was just messing with me, but if she wasnt and she ends up getting caught, will I get in trouble cause I was there. I have never done anything wrong in my life, Im a college student who had a great future, and I cant stop thinking about this and I didnt even do anything. Needles to say just in case I do nto talk to this girl anymore.... but I need some advice. I didnt touch anything, I didnt sign anything, I dont have anything.

Mere knowledge isn't enough, but they might be able to build a case based upon an accomplice or accessory theory.

In Florida, If you have knowledge of a crime being committed and your not immediately reporting it to police, your an accessory.

However, if I am wrong, I would like to know the basis on which my statement would be corrected, because this is a key factor in winning my case.

Best of Luck though....

I do not live in florida, and like i said im not 100% percent sure it was done, after six months whats the likely hood of catching the person if it was done......

Virtually none. You did not watch her buy. The conversation between you two is not on tape, is it? You don't have to admit that it even took place. At most, you drove her to the store but minded your own business such as trying to shop for yourself, and not in the area where she was, and did not see what she was doing. And if, suppose, the police asked you why your ex-friend would lie about having told you about the credit card, the answer is easy. You don't really know, but she could have done that because she was mad at you for whatever reason. For not lending her money, for example.

I'm telling you that just in case, but it looks like nobody will ask you about that.

I very seriously doubt anything is going to come of this after 6 months. It looks like you most likely wouldn't be charged with anything anyway based on the info in your post.
