LOL This is ridiculous. Uh, oh yeah; it's also pretty illegal.

My ex did this on a car she got out of the divorce that was cosigned by me.  Multiple 30 day lates, when I asked her why she said, "because I know it will hurt your credit score".  

 

Thankfully for me she totaled the car a few months later, her insurance paid the car off and stopped the bleeding on my report....

I'd like to think that there's a special place in heck for those who did this. I didn't do it to my ex; he didn't do it to me. There's no excuse for that, even if the ex was a monstrous abuser. (Not saying that you were, of course!)

 

Newly divorced: take the high road and move on.

People going through a divorce are, more often than not, usually under a great deal of emotional stress. 

 

I still, however, don't see where you can mess someone over by adding them as an AU without messing yourself up, too.  I guess the person out for revenge just wasn't creative enough.  Smiley Happy
