    I was once a dumb kid. My thought process at the time was that may parents simply wouldn’t notice the transaction on the account because they rarely checked.

    Thankfully, I didn’t go through with it, but knowing what I know now, they definitely would have noticed a strange transaction, even for a small dollar amount.

    It wasn’t even because I had no money - I was being paid an allowance and could typically afford the things I wanted to buy. I just wanted to buy stuff online and I didn’t have a bank account or debit/credit card to process the transaction.
