    Default Accused Of Using A Stolen Credit Card

    i have been suspected of stealing a credit card and using it to made purchases of up to $1050. they have not charged me of anything as of now, but they say they most likey will. what kind of charges will i be receiving if they charge me and what sentences will i receive if they find me gulity? if i hired a lawyer will they help me lessen the sentence? i have no criminal records before this so hopefully i won't have to go to jail if they find me gulity.

    My 1st question to you is, was the credit card in your name?

    If not, then you can be charged under the Criminal Code of Canada.
    Here is a link to the Fraud Charges section.

    was it or was it not stolen and not yours? if not then YOU WILL BE FOUND GUILTY! And if that is the case you should be and pay the price for doing something like this. But yes a lawyer is always a great idea if you can afford one.
