I recently installed Planet VPN and shortly after, I began receiving Google alerts that my account was being accessed from places like Germany, the Netherlands, and Japan. At first, I assumed these warnings were normal because I was using a VPN.
But over time, it became clear this was not just location masking—my actual accounts were being compromised. Someone gained access to my Netflix, PlayStation, and Steam accounts. The final straw was when I even received a phone call from Japan, which I did not answer.
I immediately suspected Planet VPN, deleted it, and went through the trouble of changing all my passwords. Since then, the suspicious logins have stopped.
What shocks me most is that nobody warns users that Planet VPN could behave like malware. It acts more like a security threat than a privacy tool, putting sensitive accounts and personal data at risk.
I urge others to stay away from this service, and I call on Planet VPN’s operators to explain how this kind of data breach is possible. Users deserve account security, transparency, and accountability—not stolen logins and international harassment.

After installing the latest update of Planet VPN, the app prompted me as usual with the Windows message: “Do you allow this app to make changes to your device?”. I accepted, thinking it was the normal setup step I had seen before. But this time, after granting permission, my computer was practicall...
I purchased a one-month Premium VPN plan from Planet VPN for $10, hoping to use it for work. However, after testing the service, I was immediately disappointed. On the Turkey server, my ping was consistently between 190–210 ms, while my normal internet ping is never higher than 10 ms. For me, this p...
I purchased a one-month Premium subscription from Planet VPN for $10, expecting reliable service for work. The next day, after testing the product, I submitted a support ticket requesting a refund. When they asked for the reason, I explained that the service was not worth the price because the Turke...
