What's Wrong?

So something really weird just happened to me with Claude. It somehow executed a “gift” on my own account automatically, and I never approved or triggered anything like that. I didn’t get any confirmation prompt or warning beforehand.

The problem is that this action actually deducted money from my account. I only noticed after checking the transaction history, and it looks like the gift was processed silently. I definitely didn’t intend to send a gift or make any payment.

Has this happened to anyone else? I’m trying to understand how an automated action like this could go through without user confirmation.

What Should Happen?

I think I might need to contact the support team and request a refund.
