This family is ruined.
Years ago, Microsoft cancelled my email account after they copied my hard drive without me being aware of them doing that nor of the years-old content of my drive.
10 years of emails gone, subscriptions that could not be renewed, contacts lost, etc.
No appeals possible.And now this whole family, due to what a kid did.

@paulschoe yes, it's just completely believable story on it's face, I don't know why anyone would think differently. They probably got auto-reported for CASM too.
