What would you do If your dad used your name to get a credit card and didn’t tell you?

My father took out a credit card in my name with an $800 credit limit. It is maxed out and over about 160dollars! I found out about it tonight only after having investigated my credit report online. He didnt’ tell me at all about the credit card. I live with him and my mother. They put a roof over my head and food on the table so I dont want to get him in trouble with the law but It makes me so angry he did this. He’s having a few debt problems himself and that’s why I am afraid he’s going to skip out on making payments and It will ruin my credit history. I dont even have a job to pay for this myself that just makes me even more worried !
I dont want my credit ruined before I even get started for the future.
What can I do about this situation?
