Why am I being charged for this Google miniclip?

Had several googleplaycharges on our credit card but did not order any

I’m being billed for something I never ordered can I stop it?

Google does NOT have a miniclip charge. This is a scam and breach of security. Google only has charges as listed...

"GOOGLEApp developer name" (for Android apps) "'GOOGLEApp name" (for Android apps) "GOOGLEContent type" (i.e. "GOOGLEMusic")

Google miniclip is another scammers way of deflecting blame. This just happened to me. Thankfully, I caught this in time and called my bank to cancel the card and report the charges. They only took $2.10 in 2 charges between 2 days.

call bank, cancel card, change all online passwords

I had many charges for something called google mini clips, over a 3 month period I was charged over $400. My bank reimbursed me and canceled my card. Somehow, it's happening again, in the last week I have been charged over $100. This is ridiculous, it's affecting my finances, overdrawn my account.

I had several $1 charges for google miniclip which I ignored assuming they were phishing. Then they charged $4.99, then 11 separate charges of $10.99 each. It was supposed to be for Agar.io or some crap like that. Why does the richest company in the world need to scam me, seriously?

This is a charge for a game on the google playstore. It can be the purchase itself or for in-app purchases you have made.

The unauthorized mini-clip charges which I do not recognize and cannot find in my Google Pay, Google Activities, or Google Play Subscriptions are being charged to my PayPal Account which I'm not using accept to make payments I didn't authorize. This is hurting me financially. In just a few months someone has charged in access of $700 to my PayPal account. I can't locate where the charges are coming from but Mini Clips is purported to be from the Google Play Store and have made several small charges to my account. Help please.

Charges from Google Play store for Android from buying apps or app accessories.

Can you help? What is this charge?
