That's criminal law question, not a divorce question. If it was a joint card, in theory your wife had the right to reopen her account, but I question whether she had a right to open your account. The account agreement should be reviewed. Do you have anything in writing with the co. cancelling the account? If so write them and them that she had no right to open your account and that she committed a fraud.
