You face a max of 5 years in prison on each 3rd degree felony. However, often times people charged with these crimes who have no criminal record may be able to enter a diversion program and avoid a conviction. Contact a local attorney asap. If you need a referral please contact me.

It depends how the State of Florida filed (or will file) the charges against you. Credit card fraud can be a misdemeanor or a felony. In most cases it is a third degree felony. If charged as such, you would be looking at up to five (5) years in the Florida State Prison or up to five (5) years of probation, along with Fines, Court Costs and Restitution.
Because you have no prior record, you may be eligible for a diversion program. If you have any specific questions, please contact my office. I'd be more than happy to review your case with you. Good luck, Aaron J. Slavin, Esq. SLAVIN LAW FIRM, LLC

I agree. You should try to hire an attorney and see if he can get you into a diversion program. Otherwise, I would think the worst you are really looking at is probation.
