Hi there angryandy,

 

As the payments were made by a family member they are not unauthorised payments. With cases like this we cannot reverse the funds from the merchant.

 

I understand your frustration however as your son has got access to your account details I can only suggest that you change your password & security questions and keep them safe going forward.
