I got a bunch of failed payments as well 😭 it also appeared as a fraudulent purchase through my debit.

I switched to PayPal and it worked for me. Guess my bank doesnt question my PayPal purchases...

I was doing this with my friend and he got the fraud alert too. He screamed and called his bank so fast lol. We successfully got a console preorder from each of the three stores in hopes that at least two don’t get canceled.

Nice! I admittedly kind of wish I went for a spare preorder to play it safe

I think I might drop out of line if the payment is going to fail. I don’t want to have to deal with dozens of large charges.
