Credit card has overdraft function, but improper use and large overdraft amount may constitute a criminal offence. When handling and using credit cards, credit card holders should pay attention to overdraft limit, repayment period, amount owed and repayment settlement order (generally, after receiving repayment, banks should pay off bank fees such as handling fees, late fees and interest first, and then pay off the principal if there is any surplus). Try to pay off the principal and expenses when repaying, otherwise it may be calculated according to compound interest. Cardholders should keep the reserved contact information unblocked, so as to grasp the bank collection situation, and repay within 3 months after the bank collection twice at the latest, otherwise they may be investigated for criminal responsibility. Article 196 of the Criminal Law stipulates that under any of the following circumstances, whoever cheats a large amount of credit cards shall be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not more than five years or criminal detention and fined not less than 20,000 yuan but not more than 200,000 yuan; If the amount is huge or there are other serious circumstances, he shall be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not less than five years but not more than ten years, and shall also be fined not less than 50,000 yuan but not more than 500,000 yuan; If the amount is especially huge or there are other particularly serious circumstances, he shall be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not less than 10 years or life imprisonment, and shall also be fined not less than 50,000 yuan but not more than 500,000 yuan, or his property shall be confiscated: (1) using a forged credit card or using a credit card fraudulently obtained with false identification; (2) Using an invalid credit card; (3) Fraudulent use of another person's credit card; (4) malicious overdraft. The term "malicious overdraft" as mentioned in the preceding paragraph refers to the behavior that the cardholder overdraws beyond the prescribed limit or time limit for the purpose of illegal possession, and refuses to return it after being urged by the issuing bank. Whoever steals a credit card and uses it shall be convicted and punished in accordance with the provisions of Article 264 of this Law.
