I swear this affidavit is true and understand that making a false sworn statement is subject to federal and/or state statutes and may be punishable by fines and/or imprisonment. Thank you for your help.The misconduct by American Express XXXX card out in the XXXX XXXX is quite frankly disgusting they have done nothing and have continuously let the fraud get bigger and bigger with no help instead of helping you out they slap you with a fake violation totally disrespectful group of people out in the XXXX XXXX we are now asking help within the corporate office of Utah The Fair Credit Billing Act was passed in XXXX as an amendment to the Truth in Lending Act. True to its name, the billing act 's primary goal is to establish consumers ' rights when goofs occur on the bill unauthorized charges, fraudulent charges, math errors, billing addressing mistakes and the like. The Federal Trade Commission website lays out those rights in detail. For this matter, nobody signs any contract with the Attachment of the false Charges. The Federal Trade Commission ( FTC ) is the nations consumer protection agency. The FTC works to prevent fraudulent, deceptive and unfair business practices in the marketplace. 
In addition, the Fair Credit Billing Act says that youll never be liable for unauthorized charges made while your card was in your possession. In other words, if the unauthorized charges were made with your credit card account information rather than your credit card, you wont be held liable if you still have physical possession of your credit card. See Per the Federal Reserve Board 's Regulation E, Electronic Fund Transfer Act.Electronic Fund Transfer Act The Electronic Fund Transfer Act is XXXX federal legislation that establishes the liabilities and rights of consumers whose funds are electronically transferred. Consumer protections include a mandate that all transaction fees for ATMs be displayed prominently on the machine and a prohibition on fees not properly disclosed. Consumer liability for unauthorized transfers due to card or PIN number theft or card loss is capped at {$50.00} if the customer notifies his bank within two business days. One thing that isn't clear to me is how someone got access to the card if no one is using it and it wasn't held by an employee. In your situation, I'd want to get to the bottom of this, so it doesn't happen again. The Electronic Fund Transfer Act allows banks and other financial institutions to place their own, voluntary caps on liability for unauthorized credit card charges and use of ATM and debit cards.
