SINGAPORE - When Miss Huo Xi Ping checked her OCBC Bank account on May 14, the student was stunned to learn that a total of $137 had been charged through several transactions over two days to ChatGPT subscriptions.
Since January, the police have received four reports of OpenAI or ChatGPT making such unauthorised transactions, although the Cyber Security Agency of Singapore said it has not received any reports of fraudulent transactions related to ChatGPT subscriptions. Customers of other local banks including POSB, DBS Bank and UOB have found similar transactions in their accounts.

This allows emuneration machines to generate different combinations of numbers without the need for customers to approve each of these transactions. The fraudulent transaction is successful when a debit or credit card number generated by trial and error works.
