IS THERE A STATUE OF LIMITATIONS ON THIS SORT OF THING AND DO I HAVE ANY LEGAL RECOURSE?
I went to Baltimore Pike Check Cashing to pay my water bill. I was at the counter waiting for my receipts when a woman walked in, picked up a paper and asked me if it were mine. I answered "yes" which was morally wrong--it wasn't my item BUT i DIDN'T STEAL ANYTING.
A few mins. after I was back at work, my daughter called me to say a strange woman came to our door. She told my daughter that I had her lost item. She gave my daughter her phone number and stated if she didn't hear from me she would be back with the police.I immediately left work, and went back to return to the item. Police had just arrived. I walked in, returned the item. No questions asked.
I called BCC y day to speak to the owner. I was told he was not available. I called again. The woman who answered said she was the manager and she knew what I was calling about. I asked her to name the clerks working on 9/29 at approx. 1:30 p.m. because one of those clerks gave a STRANGER my home address WITHOUT MY PERMISSION!! The manager replied "the woman must have followed you". This is untrue, I never went home! I spoke to the owner who also denied that any of his clerks gave out my home address to this woman and that the police must have given it to her.
I spoke to the police officer who had been called AFTER the woman left my home. He stated that he DID NOT GIVE THE WOMAN MY ADDRESS. He said the woman showed a paper the clerk had written my address on. He said he told them that providing that information was ill advised.
This stranger could have come to my home with A GUN! I am distressed that these clerks had total disregard for my privacy and my safety. They could have easily obtained my phone number by calling 411 OR they could have contacted the police BEFORE handing over my home address to a COMPLETE STRANGER!!! This woman may still have my address! I am really concerned about the safety of my family.
