Hi, guys!


I have a situation here. I asked someone from my city to register a Microsoft Azure Pay-As-You-Go account for me and sell it to me. I received the account and created a server on it, which has been running for more than a day.


Today, this person messaged me on WhatsApp, saying that €47 was charged from his card. At first, I didn't believe him because, according to Azure's rules, they issue invoices at the end of the month. So, I decided to check the "Paid Bills" section in the account to see if any invoice had been paid. As I confirmed, no bill had been paid—at least not until he messaged me again on WhatsApp.


However, I don't understand how this happened. Could you explain to me what went wrong?


In general, my plan was to trick Azure by unlinking his card at the end of the month and replacing it with an empty one with no funds, allowing me to use Azure's resources for free.
