I'm sorry you went through this, it sounds really stressful. Because you didn't have an account with Google Cloud I'd treat this like any other fraudulent transaction: get your bank to reverse it. The process is called a chargeback, in my experience it works pretty well, you can see more info here: https://www.europe-consommateurs.eu/en/consumer-topics/finan... Call the credit card department of your bank, the number is often printed on the card and will be different to the bank's regular account helpline. Tell them your card was stolen, you've reported it stolen, you've tried to resolve things with the merchant (Google) but they haven't replied. Tell them you'd like to reverse the fraudulent charge. Someone from Visa or Mastercard will contact you a few days later to get a statement of what happened: make sure you tell them that you didn't have an account with google cloud before (your card details got stolen not your Google Cloud account got hacked) and that you make a good faith attempt to resolve things with them (show Visa the emails you sent Google). The bank should give your money back in a few days. |
