The agreement you had with your parents is unenforceable at law even if you fully complied. If they go to the police, you will probably be charged with felony theft - credit card fraud - etc. Consult a local lawyer before you decide to "test" them. HMS

If you want to get your money back, I recommend that you contact a local attorney to review your facts and damages. Then you can have a detailed discussion about your rights, remedies, risks, strengths and weaknesses of your case, the law, timeline, etc.

In my jurisdiction he would lose his ability to be a notary; if he's a licenced paralegal or lawyer there would be sanctions from the law society; depending on the context and extent there could be criminal charges for breach of duty or fraud.
