Question by Jon Ragland: Is illegal to lie on a credit card application?
Is illegal to lie on a credit card application about your job or career title and how much money you actually make at this phony job? I am planning to file bankruptcy. I am actually unemployed and was when I filed out the card application and then upon receiving and activating it I maxed it out in a matter of 5 months. Can I be prosecuted in criminal court for this? Will my bankruptcy be denied?
