  • An Aussie couple who launched a skincare brand suffered an expensive mistake when they were getting ready to launch. Salvatori Agostino and Talia Jackson have a goal to become one of the most popular Australian-made skincare brands for men in the country.

An Australian couple faced a distressing situation when their 11-year-old son accidentally purchased $16,000 worth of in-game currency for the mobile game "Call of Duty: Mobile" using his mother's credit card. The incident occurred when the child, thinking he was buying a small amount of in-game currency, entered the wrong amount, leading to a massive unauthorized transaction. The parents, upon discovering the blunder, were shocked and immediately contacted Apple for a refund, but were initially denied.

The couple shared their ordeal to warn other parents about the potential risks of children making in-app purchases without proper oversight, highlighting the need for better parental controls and awareness of digital spending.
