So my GF doesnt play my ps4 much, but she has an account with her paypal on it from when she bought Life is Strange. Woke up this morning and somebody charged like 120 bucks on her account for Spiderman and Need for Speed. What is the point of this even? We noticed the transaction immediately, they didn't even change her password. She got on and changed her password and removed her paypal
What is the point of doing this though? Surely most people notice they are missing money within a day or so and lock the account back down right? It seems like a wasted effort to be able to play a game for an hour or two before the account holder notices. Also how do people get in to PSN accts like this? She only uses this email + password for PSN and steam, steam account is uncompromised. If they got in by using her personal information and calling Sony Support, wouldn't her password be changed? Just trying to wrap my head around this, any insight would be much appreciated.
Sony support doesn't open for an hour, so she will call then then, will they refund these purchases? I think the only thing she ever bought was LiS, so if she has to do a chargeback and lose her acct it's whatever, but she would still rather not.
