For the many that were skeptical about having the credits cards linked to their PSN actually being used, I've got some bad news for you. Recently, a PSN user stated that $12,500 had been taken out of his credit card which, ironically, was the same card linked to his PS3. The user by the alias of Progmetal said, "I’ve just noticed a transaction on my Credit Card I use for PSN for the amount of $12,500. Called as soon as I could and closed my card. Hmmmmm, sceptic.." He's also got a picture of his bank account showing us proof of the transaction.

The currency was in Norwegian Kroner's. The transaction called for 74,720 Norwegian Kroner’s, which equals $12,500. Also, after the money was taken, the overall balance of the account had dropped to zero, as shown in the provided image. So, has this happened to any of you? Luckily, I've been safe. I assumed that this wasn't going to happen and simply overlooked it. Well, now it seems as if that it is and was possible to have our hard earned money stolen by a bunch of illicit hackers.

"I was just wondering what the term meant and forgot it was still there in the search window."

Out of the 77 million or so PSN users the odds are that someone is going to get money stolen from their credit card. It happens everyday all around the world.
Until I see more reports of this then I refuse to believe us, especially since Sony have told us they are safe. They legally have to tell us if our CC info has been taken.
