How do I even handle this?

Got a notification from my bank that my credit card was charged $756.25 on Amazon. I'm here freaking out because I'm thinking someone defrauded me.

Nope..it's my kids! Took my card and went on a shopping spree 😑 I left my wallet on the countertop and forgot to take it up

They'd never do crap like this to their mom

There's a simple explanation for this, punishment.
No more privileges.
Parents that separate or divorce always seem to think its acceptable to molly coddle their kids, then the kids grow and learn how to wrap their parents around their finger. With behaviour like pitting the other against each other.
It's important to treat them no different than if you were together.
Sure you separated but you have joint parental responsibility to raising decent people in society.

I'd have an open discussion with the mother about it and come to an agreement. You need this person a ally not an enemy.

I've read some of your other posts. And I can only assume your daughter sees you as a bit of a soft touch after the perfume incident. (which wasn't your fault, but clearly had more to do with tone/body language)

You need a confidence shot!
Just my 2 cents.
Don't let them walk all over you.
