What they did
What are these charges on my card? He had six $20 charges he couldn't place. His Grok Bot traced all six back to an auto top-up that had been switched on and hidden in an account's settings. The same week it booked a work-trip hotel from chat.
How it went
An explanation for every charge you didn't recognize, and where to switch off the ones you don't want.
Worth knowing
- Very short post with no screenshots. If a charge has no matching receipt at all, call your bank; it could be fraud.
Prompt
Cleaned version rewritten from the source — not a direct quote.
Look at my [card / bank] statements for the last [3] months and list every charge I might not recognize. For each one, search my email for the matching receipt or account, tell me what it is and whether it repeats. If it comes from an auto top-up, auto-renew or subscription, show me where to turn it off. Don't cancel or dispute anything without asking me.
