Today i received a message from my girlfriend mother asking me to give her this pin on this message “Um EUR 47,02 für Ihren Service 2x GTA 5 - Grand ... zu bezahlen, verwenden Sie bitte nachfolgende TAN. Geben Sie diese niemals an Dritte weiter. Die Eingabe löst eine Zahlung aus. TAN ...”



at fist i though it was her so o gave her the code.



now i asked her and i have the confirm she has been hacked. Now at this point i believe something will be charged on my account. How can we fix this?



Hello,



you havent been "hacked", someone used your number for paying and you gave him the code to proof the number.



The things you can do:



-dont give paying-codes to other people



-go to the police



Cause you authorized the payment you will be charged the amount of 47,02€ like it was written in the SMS.



Greets,



Katja




Only way to dont get charged will be to go to the police? How i did receive the message from o2?

No, you will be charged, no matter if you went to the police or not.

Someone used your number.




Thats weird that there isnt a chance to block ot since it will be on my next bill i believe. Specially if i report it 




It's not weird, you gave them the PIN and thereby authorised the transaction! In future: NEVER authorise a payment you don't recognise.




Well of course. I got tricked cos this person created a new profile under my girlfriend’s mother name. We learn from mistakes! Will be my phone number affected? Since this *i dont want say the word* person has it? I wont definitelly authorize anything that i dont recognize. But in case..




Even if you were to change your phone number (which would cost 30 Euros) it could in theory happen again at any time, so the thing to do is just be very careful - as I am sure you will be now.




Ok thanks! In any case if someone uses it i will receive a message, correct? And should i report it to someone?
