Man Called Out For Using Girlfriend’s Credit Card On Jewelry For His Mistress

There are a lot of ways a person can show their love for a significant other, such as small gifts or thoughtful experiences.

But in a video that's gone viral, TikTok users are applauding how a small business owner clapped back against a customer who not only cheated on his girlfriend, but used her own credit card to shower his mistress in gifts.

From bouquets of flowers to chocolates or romantic dinners, everyone has their own way of showing their significant other how much they love them.

How about an engraved gold necklace? You'd probably think that's one of the most romantic gifts your partner could give you, and you'd be right — as long as it's actually your name engraved on it.

Throughout the TikTok, Liv doesn't speak, but she lip-syncs to the song "She Knows" by J. Cole. A woman emails Liv and claims that she received an email and credit card charge for an order of three jewelry pieces.

But, she didn't order anything and the order is going to her boyfriends' house. Worse still, the name on the necklace isn't hers. The email signs off with, "Please help me out, Ashley".

Liv then realizes that the jewelry allegedly purchased by Ashley wasn't purchased by her at all. In fact, it was her boyfriend who ordered the jewelry, but not as a gift for Ashley, but instead for a mystery woman named "Diamond".

And to add insult to injury, the boyfriend made the purchase using the girlfriends' own credit card.

Liv then explains that the boyfriend failed to notice that his girlfriend Ashley received the order confirmation instead, immediately raising alarm bells.

He also ordered two additional pieces of jewelry, including a gold butterfly necklace and for himself, an anklet with his initial "N". The video then ends with Liv packing up the three pieces of jewelry in individual boxes and then placing them in a large box for shipping.

But that's not where our story ends. While it's made glaringly obvious that the boyfriend is cheating on Ashley with a woman named Diamond, it's also made clear that he stole her credit card to fraudulently pay for the purchase.

Liv then posts a follow-up TikTok which illustrates how she makes amends to Ashley and claps back against her cheating boyfriend.

Liv then begins making a slight amendment to the boyfriends' order and explains how he is "not getting away [with] this". On the other side of the original gold "Diamond" necklace, Liv engraves the name "Ashley". Not only is she shipping him the new and improved necklace, but it also includes a note.
