Origin Users reporting unauthorized purchases on their account. So am I.

I've only ever activated through Origin, I've never purchased anything through them :) ME2 was a Steam copy, BF3 and BF4 were hard-copies.

 

I feel sorry for the people who have fallen victim to this :( Hopefully they get fully reimbursed and refunded :P

Just noticed this as well. A bunch of orders were put towards FIFA 15 Games... all with different CC Credentials (as I do not store my own, probably). Luckily, it seems like all the purchases they tried to do with other people's money were rejected. Phew.

Cheers,

Linus
