[QUOTE="Lil, post: 639338, member: 17309"] GM, I feel your pain. I have a former friend (no longer friends for very good reasons) who's 19 year old daughter was being put out of her boyfriend's parent's house. We had invited her and her boyfriend over for Thanksgiving 2012 and then in December she asked if I would buy her a plane ticket to her mom in Florida. As it was so close to Xmas the prices were crazy, so I told her she could stay with us until after new year and I bought her a plane ticket for January 6 (and one for her DOG!) and got a pet carrier for her to put it under her seat on the plane. Next thing I know her boyfriend is there too. They lived with us for a couple weeks, through Xmas, where we bought them both gifts. Xmas day, we want to watch a DVD and realize most of our DVD's are missing. And our CD's. Dozens of items. They, of course, were shocked! Why, it HAD to be one of my son's friends! How horrible that anyone would come into our home and steal from us! (Yes. Seriously.) I, of course, had no proof it was them. I really didn't want to believe it. At that point, we didn't realize our son was a difficult child...although some of his friends were questionable. She was leaving in a week. We let it drop. January 3, a man comes to our door, claims to be a friend of the boyfriend, shoulders his way past my son who answered the door and goes to our basement where they were staying. I hear a noise from the basement that sounds exactly like a taser! I get to the stairs just in time to see the boyfriend being frog-marched out the door and the girl standing there with her mouth open! I asked if it was a bondsman. Apparently. She tells me she's going to her dad's, runs out the door. I get on-line and look them up...I can't find a thing on the boy except a seatbelt violation. The doorbell rings. This time it's the police. They're looking for the girl! Turns out she had THREE bad check felony warrants! While I'm telling the cops EVERYTHING (including that I'm a lawyer and a state employee and I will fully cooperate in every way) she comes home, sees the police, guns the car, they give chase, she abandons the car and tries to hide, they catch her.

Not only were we out all these things, but also the price of a plane ticket and she took the darn dog carrier ($50) so I couldn't even return that to the store! AND she had the nerve to call me from jail and try to con me into posting her $50,000 BAIL! So...long story anything but short, I totally understand how you feel about this girl right now.
