Bought a few things recently from the PSN and was just looking at my Download List today and noticed that there's things on there that I never actually bought or downloaded. The ones that I never got mostly appear to just be demos, although according to the Sony website this "Download List" is a list of things bought from the PSN (even if the cost was £0.00).

Given that there's a bunch of things that I never got, although they are all demos, is there something fishy going on here or has the PSN just decided to slap a bunch of demos into my list of things I've meant to have downloaded? An example being I bought all the Valkyria Chronicles DLC on the 4th April when they were on offer and got nothing since then, but just checking today I've apparantly added "2010 Fifa World Cup Demo" to the list?
 
You may have purchased it but never actually downloaded it...

Check the PSN store and see if theres a red shopping bag in one of the corners of the 2010 Fifa World Cup demo - if its there then theres a good chance you accidently 'purchased' it while browsing (just need to press x twice)

Do other people have access to your PS3 or access to your PSN account?

Because otherwise this really is strange.
Nope, only me that uses the PS3, and no one should have access to my account. I'm the only one out of all my mates also that owns a PS3 so no chance I would have logged in from someone elses machine and forgot to log out.

Aye there's red shopping bags next to all the items that appear in my Download List when browsing for them in their respective categories, including those things I'm in question about. I definitely didn't get them, I only go on the PSN store when I specifically know something is on there and I go straight for it - like the GoW3 demo, Valkyria Chronicles DLC etc, I just go for them and buy then download/install and exit the PSN.


Here's the stuff that is there that I never got. All of them are sports games, bar Batman. I don't even like F1 or Tennis so no chance I would have got them.

Superstars Tennis
PES 2009
Fifa 10
Formula 1
Batman Arkham Asylum
2010 Fifa World Cup Demo
 
Strange, either a bug or someone has browsed using your details.

When I had to reinstall a lot of stuff after getting a refurb PS3 I browsed my history and found nothing strange, everything I bought was there and nothing extra, also my US/JAP/HK accounts only had the stuff I purchased.
 
Are the transactions on the same date or around same week? Only thing I can guess is a mate just looking at the store while having a gaming session at yours or something - sounds plausible especially if it was after you got one and none of your mates have...

I looked at my last couple of months of usage and found nothing untoward either

EDIT: Obviously 2010 World Cup stands out as an exception...

Just seems a bit bizarre, as my CC details were tied to the account so if someone was on it I'm kinda suprised that they never bought a bunch of games and downloaded them at my expense.
