Dear LFTP: bilked after cosigning loans for a vanished man
- I cosigned loans for a man who bilked me and vanished; what legal recourse do I have?
A host reads a letter from a 40-year-old divorced woman who cosigned loans for a man who stopped paying, blocked her calls, moved, and turned out to have been engaged — now married — the whole time. The hosts respond with comic revenge fantasies (writing on his lawn in weed killer, subscribing him to teapot magazines, stealing a tire) before landing that she signed the paper and owns the debt — 'give them your tunic as well' — while criticizing the 'Secular' answer (report him to the loan company and police, talk to a lawyer) for hearing no personal responsibility.
