I'm with Larry. The mom talks like she had no control and that the banks are at fault. Her son defrauded them and others and her "only recourse" was to go to the victims ( banks ) and ask them to stop it from their end? The kid used fraudulent methods to scam and ripoff, there will never be 100% protection from that built into any system.
People want others to protect them from themselves? How about you ground your 14 year old and not LET him go eat and live lavishly? And punish him sternly for scamming ANYONE. He obviously has no morals or scruples and that ultimately is HER FAULT! Blaming others for her lack of parenting - ridiculous!
Is the suit her attempt to protect HIM from runining his "credit/rep" future? Or because she has
inherited some of the "fallout" from his rip-offs? Either way it is ultimately HER FAULT for letting him run amok and HIS for being a scumbag. They can both rot in jail AFAIC!
