This is what happens when low-tech normies don't know how to handle their pocket sized computer while also trying to let that pocket size computer babysit their kids.
If I could go back to say, 1998, and freeze media tech to what I had around that time I'd do it in a second. I believe that's around when I had DSL internet, a DVD player, and had not yet gotten a cell phone. I even get surprised when I'm around older people. I'm supposed to be the young guy who grew up in the world of computers and attached to this stuff right? Where's my phone? Oh I left it in the car oops, or it's just in my pocket and I ignore it. These older people? Can't put the damn things down ever. I was on a little mini-trip with one of them and we were away from cell service for about 4 hours. You'd have thought they were going to die. I don't get it.
Or her PayPal history where, I know shit is itemized.

She could go beg Sega to reverse the microtransactions on their end, but if that fails she could always tell Apple that the microtransactions are unauthorized and that they have to reverse them or get sued.
Any crowdfunding site like GoFundMe would happily host a crowdfund for a forced refund lawsuit.
There seriously needs to be laws that allow people to get forced refunds for microtransactions for reasons unrelated to this case.
She had 60 days to get her money back and she still couldn't do it? She should have been glad it wasn't Sony. If you actually do get fraudulent charges on Sony, they will only give you $250, IF they feel like it.
Jessica got no sympathy from a customer-service agent, even after confessing that she wouldn’t be able to pay her family’s mortgage. “They’re like, ‘There’s a setting, you should have known,’ ” she recalled.

Smart phones were a mistake.

It's because there's a lot of people who know how to work technology, but don't know how technology works.

Gotta pump those numbers up, kid.
