❗️ Anthropic tried to charge a Korean user who was on the free plan with zero API usage $16.6 million. A day earlier, the same invoice was $1.67 million, so it grew roughly 10x overnight.

The user says he suspected phishing at first, then found the sender and payment link were Anthropic's official domain. His bank declined the charge attempts for exceeding the card's per-transaction limit...

Last month auditing startup Vaudit told it found about $1.7 million in overcharges across $34 million in AI invoices, mostly tied to Claude Code, and after months of GitHub reports about contradictory Anthropic billing emails.
