What is the crime of borrowing someone else’s credit card?

Borrowing someone else’s credit card may constitute credit card fraud.

Credit cards can only be used by the cardholder and cannot be rented or lent to others. If you lend your credit card to others, it is a crime of obstructing credit card management. If the credit card is lent to others, any liability incurred will be borne by the cardholder personally. If you lend your credit card to others and report a problem if something goes wrong, the public security organs may not accept it, so it is best not to lend your credit card to others. Credit card fraud is a crime of embezzlement, and you may face different penalties depending on the amount of the fraud. Generally speaking, if the amount of fraud is below a certain amount, you may be sentenced to criminal detention, control or fines; if the amount of fraud is larger, you may be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment. At the same time, if the theft is particularly serious, you may be considered part of a criminal group and face more severe penalties. Therefore, credit card fraud is a serious offense and may be severely punished by law.

The risks of borrowing a credit card from others are as follows:

1. Overdue credit card;

2. Failure to repay the debt;

3. Frozen by the bank. If the bank discovers that the cardholder has borrowed the card from someone else, the credit card will be frozen. The cardholder needs to retrieve the credit card and contact the bank's customer service to unfreeze it. If the cardholder borrows the card from someone else repeatedly, the cardholder may need to go to a bank branch to restore the card. Use;

4. Risk of being stolen. Once the credit card is lost or stolen while being loaned to others, all losses must be borne by the cardholder according to relevant insurance compensation clauses, and the cardholder cannot enjoy compensation from the bank.

To sum up, we should call on everyone to abide by the law, cherish the rights and interests of using credit cards, and jointly maintain social integrity and order.
