Good day all, My account is connected with PS4 in order to purchase games. Anyways here is my story. I left my PS4 at my step mother and it was in its box with my other stuff. My 8 years old stepbrother found it and used it with out my premision. How I found out is that I have PS4 app on my phone and it shows if you play a game, receives messages, etc. Anyways, I visit them once every week and when I visited them, before I arrive my stepbrother put it back like nothing happened. I didn't say anything and waited for his confession. Guess what.. he didn't confess. So later when i left almost for a week, I received a text from my bank that a purchase has been made through PayPal PlayStation store: $70... I WENT crazy!!!! HOW!! HOW the **bleep** did he do it. If you want to make a purchase you need to enter a **bleep** password!! How did he do it!!! I right away canceled my credit card from PayPal and called dad and told him. Funny part is my dad starting yelling at my stepbrother while on the phone. Again my brother is only 8 years old. My question to the pro. How did he do it!!!!!??? ... View more
