What does your bankruptcy lawyer say? I would need more information but if you haven't confirmed a plan, you would have to explain why you have money to pay for a trip and not to pay your creditors. There are ways after your plan gets confirmed to do it but ask your lawyer.

Can I file bankruptcy on accounts that I know are scams?

Answered by attorney Phong Thanh Tran (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Law Office of Pho Ethan Tran, PLLC
When you file for bankruptcy, you must disclose all your debts even the ones that you want to keep. However, it is up to the credit card company whether they will allow you to keep and use your account in the future. So, you should negotiate with them before you file. However, most banks will automatically close your account as soon as you file even if you are current on the payments due to the risks involved. Have you filed a police report about the scams.

Can I file bankruptcy on accounts that I know are scams?

Answered by attorney Loren Paul Zahn (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Zahn Law Office
You aren't required to list all creditors when filing for bankruptcy, but even if you don't, your credit will be negatively effected and you may lose your relationship with creditors who you don't attempt to discharge debt from. Rather than file for bankruptcy, perhaps you should consider suing in civil or even small claims court (if they amount you seek to recover is less than the statutory limit). This seems to make more sense than filing for bankruptcy.
