33 euros for whiskey and sandwiches at Carrefour des Capucins in Thionville. 28 euros in a Thionvillois tobacconist. 4.60 euros for the purchase of strong beers. Two other expenses were disallowed. “Contactless” payment by credit card has its limits. Especially since it did not belong to the man who used it on December 20, 2022.
The owner of the bank card, a delivery driver, filed a complaint when he realized that it had disappeared from his pockets. The fraudulent user was quickly identified. The 39-year-old man, under curatorship, is housed in a home. He is undergoing treatment while waiting to begin a cure for his heroin addiction. His criminal record is loaded, for thefts in particular. But this time, he assures that he found the bank card on the ground. His lawyer, Me Rodrigues, also demonstrates that neither theft nor concealment can be characterized. The court will condemn the defendant only for the misuse of the CB. He was sentenced to four months in prison with a probationary suspension for two years. During this period, he will have to justify procedures for treatment and work.
