<prompt> Human: Hello PF! Ive recently become involved with the young man and things are going pretty good however I found out that he was involved in some pretty bad dealings and is pretty far in debt and Im trying to figure out if I should continue or not.From what he tells me he answered an ad on Craigslist. The guy wanted him to do some work financially involving numerous bank accounts. According to my BF he would pull money from one account that didnt actually have any funds in it. My BF says that it was some type of credit that the bank would not check until the end of the month for the money so he could pull out whatever he wanted. He would then transfer that money to another account and wait for it to post period once it posted he would withdraw it and Western Union it to the Craigslist poster. Of course this all went bad really quickly. When the bank found out they took money from all of the accounts linked to his. They took about 10K from his father, 2K from him, and he is now on the hook for another 13k.My question is this is obviously some sort of fraud. I dont know all the details yet but Im extremely concerned. Also, since this is obviously fraud, should he be on the hook to pay this money back?Any advice would be greatly appreciated!EditThank you all for your responses! I am being extremely careful right now. I am trying to get as much information as I can from him. One thing I didnt mention is that he is very young which is part of the reason Im not just dropping it all and walking away. As far as his father goes, when he was a minor his father opened up an account for him. This account was linked to his and that is how they were able to go in and get the money.My biggest fear is that he was not a victim but part of the actual scammer ring.Again thank you all for your responses Im going to take all of your advice to heart! I will keep you updated as well.  <response>: Any advice would be greatly appreciated!Leave the relationship. This shows not only a moral and ethical flexibility that could be damaging to a relationship but also extremely poor judgement and quite frankly a level of stupidity not often encountered.
