Before you panic: do a quick check

What to collect

Who to contact (order matters)

  1. Platform support first (refund/dispute policies vary).
  2. If you suspect fraud, contact your payment provider/bank.
  3. If there’s extortion or fraud, see Reporting resources.

Note: chargebacks can lead to account restrictions on some platforms. Treat them as a last resort after support channels.
