I have 4 charges per day since October 12th. $2.99 each the first day and $4.99 each the following days. I never authorized this. I have never even entered payment information into any google device or account. I reposted as fraud and got a new debit card and still got charges the next day.

Charged my card 29 times back to back. Never heard of it before…funny how “35 users reported it as trusted”. Yeah okay. Luckily my bank caught it immediately and I’ll be getting my money back and my card was canceled ASAP. Get a job and stop scamming people, I actually hope someone scams you a hundred times harder than you’ve scammed everyone here. And during a pandemic, you should be ashamed of yourself. Pathetic, trashy, lowlife

.99 charged `11 times and $2.99 charged once before the bank locked my card. What a surprise to find out when I went to pay for my daughter's $160 hair colors and style that my card was blocked for fraud!!!! Currently waiting on new card as of this morning. It will be 7-10 days and my rent will now be late due to the BS Scam from Singapore!! Only thing I can figure is the fraudulent clothing site/company - NoraCora - sold my info. Was supposed to be from CA/United States only, come to find out the couple of !$^# items received came from China and are tagged as MISLOOK which makes since since items look NOTHING like images and descriptions!!! I still haven't received half of the items and can't reach a real customer service. Their tracking system also appears to be fake and may be where even more scammers got my information!

My bank notified me of suspicious activity on my card. I immediately checked and blocked my card, still they were able to get over 200$ worth of $2.99 fraudulent charges. I got a new card, and am waiting for bank to “investigate” these charges before they will consider returning to me these charges. Since I’ve rarely used my card, used just for emergencies, I have NO idea how this even happened.

I have had several different ones through Google that my bank stopped except for all the ones through gardena. They made 5 charges to my account of $1.05 each late last night while I was sleeping. Now my card is locked and it is the only way I have to eat at work. So, no thanks Google. Give me my money back and stop charging me for stuff that I never purchased. I looked in to my paid subscriptions and all that stuff and there was nothing. No more lies. Give us our money back.

I was charged 35+ times. On Nov 8, 2021. I caught mine while it was pending. I got very lucky. I tried with PayPal to deny the charges. I also contacted the bank and put a stop payment on anything coming from PayPal! PayPal replied to all 35 charges with: Update on your case We received the case(s) you filed on November 9, 2021. We have reviewed this transaction(s) and are denying your case(s). This decision was made because this transaction was not unauthorized. If you'd like a copy of the documentation we used in the investigation of your case, send a letter including the Case ID to the following address: PayPal, Inc. Attn: Unauthorized Account Access Appeal P.O. Box 45950 Omaha, NE 68145-0950 United States We're sorry for any problems you may have experienced with the transaction(s). Since I put a stop payment on transactions and removed my debit card from PayPal. Nothing would go through to them. They sent me this: A recent transaction with your bank account ending in **** didn't go through. As a result, we have removed this bank account from your PayPal account. To re-add this bank account to your PayPal account, please confirm with your bank that all information is correct. Alternatively, you can add another bank account. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause. Um no, PayPal won’t be getting my busy nor will they be getting my new bank information. They can come after me for the $38.00 in fraudulent charges and try and prove in court I authorized the charges! I got lucky. This sucks. I will be keeping an eye on all my accounts. I didn’t even have a card on file with google. But I do use PayPal for payments. That ends today. When it comes time for a lawsuit I would more than gladly be a part of it!

L. From Canada on November 13, 2021

I was charged many times for a small amount. The charges happened rapidly with several attempts in one minute over a 4 hour period which led those small charges to become a large sum. My bank called, froze my accounts and I went in and got a new card. The bank and I looked thru all the transactions, and the bank reported the fraud. However, I'm beginning to doubt if it was even Google, or an affiliate. I've gone thru my Google Account. There were several cards linked to my account yet only one card was affected. Why only one? There is only one place where that one card alone is linked which is PayPal. I suspect it happened there after I made an online purchase. However, all the purchases on PayPal history are purchases I made myself. No suspicious activity so I could be wrong. I have run several protection scans on every forum or app where any of my bank accounts are linked, nothing has come up. Ran scans on apps, and nothing. Was not signed in to any suspicious devices, all recognized and verified. No subscriptions that would have taken a fee. Changed all my passwords. I've yet to check iTunes which is next after I write this. I canceled my card, received a new one and the bank will refund the stolen money. Either way, the purchases cannot continue since the card is longer connected to my bank account. And I will no longer link a card connected to a bank account to any PayPal, iTunes or Google accounts. Reloadable gift cards it is. As mentioned, I suspect it isn't actually Google responsible for the purchases. I think whomever is doing it is posing as Google since it is already incredibly difficult to reach customer service, report frauds or receive a restitution(s) through their organization.
