You don’t think people would do that? Get their parent’s credit cards and buy shit without permission?
Like roblocks shit or something, sure. Not $200 of Bugs/Daffy Mpreg.
Haha my sister spent almost 500$ on the phone bill playing that dumb crane app where you actually operate a crane in Japan through your phone. And she did that shit 3 times just with 300 and then 400 the separate times.
At the same time she used her money to buy and sell characters, which included artwork of them. I have honestly no idea what that means but she wasted such money on this stupid shit.
I wonder how they thought this would go down. Were they just hoping that their mum wouldn’t notice a $200 charge? Were they going to say, “oh, can’t get refunds, guess I’ll pay you back over time” (ask for forgiveness instead of permission, basically)? What was the end game?
I’m going to assume a certain level of mental immaturity. Either still a child or in a child-like mental state.
I was once a dumb kid. My thought process at the time was that may parents simply wouldn’t notice the transaction on the account because they rarely checked.
Thankfully, I didn’t go through with it, but knowing what I know now, they definitely would have noticed a strange transaction, even for a small dollar amount.
It wasn’t even because I had no money - I was being paid an allowance and could typically afford the things I wanted to buy. I just wanted to buy stuff online and I didn’t have a bank account or debit/credit card to process the transaction.
