I had a monthly arrangement for an adult relationship after starting with coffee, but while I wasn’t looking, he opened my wallet, stole ¥10,000, and apparently also saw my My Number Card.

I didn’t realize it at the time, so I also gave him my bank account details and phone number, saying he could transfer the money. I’ve now left LINE, and he’s blocked on the site.
I hope nothing happens, but now that he’s found out this much about me, could I end up being involved in something dangerous? I know I brought this on myself, but I can’t stop worrying.

I can’t say for sure what will happen, but if anything does happen, please consult the club or the police.
In most cases, people who are being ignored usually don’t do anything further.
If a woman responds in any way, it gives them an opening, so I think ignoring them is the best option.

I’m Ayase Nana ♡
People keep asking me about how dangerous dating apps can be, so quit them already.
I’m pretty sure I’ve said over and over in my Q&A that apps are dangerous. And seriously, don’t put your My Number Card in your wallet. Bank cards and cash cards are a no-go too.
When Ayase Nana goes on a first date, I only bring the bare minimum amount of cash. What if someone takes it while you’re in the bath?
Your guard is way too low. Seriously, be more careful.
Why did you quit LINE? I really don’t get it.
You can’t turn back time, so please be more cautious.

You’re talking about apps, right? They really are scary. With apps, you’re completely on your own. Since there’s no screening or oversight in between, they’re convenient, but also a lawless free-for-all where people can do whatever they want.
Here’s my answer:
My Number → It doesn’t seem like they could do much with the number alone.
Bank account details → The number alone probably wouldn’t be enough to cause trouble.
Phone number → Maybe it could be sold to shady sales callers?
As Kazu mentioned, the risks above don’t seem to amount to much. The actual harm seems to be that you were① charged ¥10,000 and ② ghosted after the meeting.
Thanks for the publicity.
If you’re worried about risks like these, please consider joining Universe.

Knowing your My Number or bank account number wouldn’t really do them any good. If you’re worried, it may be a hassle, but I think you should just change your bank account. As for your My Number Card, if you say you lost your wallet and are worried it might be misused, they should be able to issue you a new number.
What do you mean by having withdrawn from LINE or by the site being blocked?
Even if they know your phone number, the worst they could probably do is make prank calls or post your number somewhere and cause you to receive prank calls. You could simply set your phone to reject calls from private numbers.
This doesn’t sound like it’s about Universe Club. I think you should stop using apps and switch to Universe Club, where you can consult with the staff.
