Is this really where I have to come to report fraud?

Solved!

Is this really where I have to come to report fraud?

Noticed I'd been charged £14.99, rather than £9.99 this month.
Then noticed I seem to have a family account active with:
<snip email>
&
<snip email>
listed as being "in my family". They aren't.
Password reset and all that, and just off to paypal to reject the payment. *Surely* there's a better way of handling this.

It was that last link that I hadn't managed to spot.
Kept on clicking through and just kept seeing "Have you a stupidly obvious question" or "Hey, ask the community" - wasn't improving my mood.
Thanks for the links.
