E bills are very easy now. Mail never comes to the house, only to the email account. Parents would never see the statements that way.
Bye-Bye credit.

OK dude have you learned a lesson and are you ready to take responsibility for what you've done??? This just might work, but it won't be easy.
Go to your local police department and turn yourself in........you've actually stolen your parents identity and used it to gamble. Then have the attorneys notify the credit card companies and let the credit card companies come after you and not your parents......This just might work................have the balls to do this. It just might show your parents that your willing to take the sentence the court will hand out and that your sorry for your actions????...............just a thought but it just might work.

Geez, Boys, thats a bit harsh, don't you think? The easiest way out is to simply swallow both barrels and let someone else clean up the mess.
First, I don't beleive any of this jibberish. I reread some his previous posts and he's always bitching about his bets. He whines about virtually every bet he's made and how he's always getting screwed. There was a noticeable gap in his posting for about 3 months. Who knows what thats about.....then this. It's pretty farfetched to think this could happen, despite some previously posted ideas as to plausability. Until there is more tangable proof of his delimna, I'll prefer to take this as a amusing fable.
I looked at his post history as well Pain, and I thought it kinda supported that he wsa telling the truth, The first few posts he asks about where the bill goes with neteller account or what transaction specifics will be printed on the bill. Then the last 15 posts are just him bitching about plays, just seemed like he was getting more and more desperate, and its obvious he didnt have too many winners.ScreaminPain said:
come on guys...I hope the ones that are joking never go through the experience this poster may be going through....not great karma to kick a man while he is down or pour salt in the wounds.....yes it is his own stupidity for getting in this deep.....but gambling can be a disease..just like drinking...once you lose control you cannot regain it...it can take over your life and mind....there is no reason to beat him up about it..what he needs is some help and support....i was bailed out for more than your 25 dimes about 4 years ago....it was the hardest conversation i ever had to have with my parents......i actually contiplated suicide instead of talking to them about it....it is going to be hard....this may be your 3rd strike..but you still have hope if you are committed to stopping.....and a poster made a grat point about staying away from the forums, sports page espn etc..get a mountain bike and start a new hobby...you need to get away from sports for a long time...it will take you a while to pay off the debt...i have about 10 more months am i will be dept free..will taken me over 5 years to do it...it is possible....for the past 5 years i have basically worked to pay off my dept..no vacations...etc....its not easy..... but you can do it......dont take a dive off the deep end....the 1st start is going to GA and speaking with your parents..i know my dad went to GA with me as support...maybe you have a friend who can go with you??good luck in your journey.....
i think more people on this board may have gone through a similiar situation in the past but have to much pride to speak up about it...

c note..........this is his 3rd time, he will do it again. He stole his parents idenity.........he needs to go to the cops and turn himself in and let the cc company come after him not his parents. Stealing your parents idenity is lower then low my man.

Let me get this straight. You are an admitted addicted gambler, who recently lost 25K+? You are hanging around a sports gambling forum preaching to others to stay away from sports gambling forums?
Since you are here and not riding your mountain bike....You are either on a reformation crusade or maybe...just maybe gambling again?? Come on, you can tell us.
:mj07:
please dont get me wrong....i am not agreeing the way he used some one elses credit cards is right....not at all....i guess it goes to show you what people will do when desperate for money...just like a crack addict robbing someone for its next hit...some people can control there urges while some have lost complete control....
wilson,
i dont think there is a rule on me being able to post on forums and admitting my mistakes...my biggest down fall like many was having very very poor money management and chasing hard when I lost...i have learned my lesson on the value of money the hard way....i do enjoy some of the comic relief that is posted on this bored and watch the success of some great cappers...and my mishap was over 4 years ago...recent yes....probably to recent....but gambling consumed alot of my life (mood swings, checking scores every 2 seconds etc)..i probably was risking more than i should which made me paranoid...thats why i said get a hobby to get away from sports...when i won i was never satisfied and always pushed it to the next level...i can also thank fletcher for some of the great advice he gave me in the past to help me through the tough times...

Dude, I don't know if your story is BS or not, but if it isn't... like many said before you need to tell them now, the anticipation of what is going to happen (as bad as it may be) is generally worse then what actually happens.. GL to you...
