claude-code - 💡(How to fix) Fix [BUG] [BILLING] Unauthorized Gift Max 5X x3 — support unresponsive

Preflight Checklist

• I have searched existing issues and this hasn't been reported yet
• This is a single bug report (please file separate reports for different bugs)
• I am using the latest version of Claude Code

What's Wrong?

Three unauthorized “Gift Max 5X x3” purchases totaling approximately $300 were made from my Claude account on April 23, 2026, without my permission. After I froze my payment card, additional purchase attempts continued. I reported the issue multiple times through live chat and email, submitted screenshots and receipts, and only received automated responses without any meaningful support or resolution.

What Should Happen?

Anthropic should urgently investigate the unauthorized transactions, secure my account from further unauthorized access or purchases, provide a response from a real support representative, and refund the fraudulent charges.
