Can you confirm that all of these transactions were for the same amount, equal to your monthly payment when you were a subscriber? I get that they’re the bad guy, but I highly doubt they have intentionally developed systems to side-step blocks from payment processors. A compromised credit card is a much more likely explanation given your inability to provide the email address for the account and charges for multiple products.
- crazygringo 2y agoI too doubt it's to sidestep blocks, but it could very much be a case of normal fallbacks. E.g. if Adobe or a contractor uses one service to process payments, if that API fails they use another service, if that API fails they use another service. And it shows up as a slightly different name in each case, because it was a different person registering each service, and the names don't need to be consistent anyways. I set up categorization rules in my personal finance app Monarch and have discovered that exact names of charges vary quite a bit. Always the same two or three variations for a given company, but it might be six months of one, then six months of another, then back to the first...
