Dear Brave users, We realized that some of you were impacted by the Auto-Contribute bug where BAT was sent to verified creators despite the auto contribute flag being turned OFF; like the image below. [image] If you believe you were impacted by this issue and do not want to allow these contribut…

Hey everyone, quick update. We issued a patch for this bug recently, but it looks like there are still people being affected. We’re still absolutely issuing refunds for anyone affected, but are going to do so once the issue itself is isolated and resolved – we don’t want to refund you only for your …

Hi Brave Team I sent email about my issue as well. Please check. https://paste.pics/7K6S5 @Asad , can you help me? Thank you

[image] Asad: how much BAT did you estimate you lost? Did you write in to support yet? Hi @Asad , as I said it’s been a while ago and I don’t have any register of it. It was about 12 BATs or so that was ‘auto-contributed’ without my authorization. I haven’t one the support yet. I will then. T…

@Asad The “last version of Brave” picture will be obsolete pretty quickly since I know it takes time to work through these. Because of that, how does having an out of date picture help exactly? I lost 129 BAT with this bug so i am anxious to get this resolved quickly. I know you are going as quick…

Brave Team, I had a similar issue where my Brave wallet got emptied out. My Brave wallet had sent out a monthly auto contribute of 5 BAT to Brave Software International on 12/25/19, which is normal. However, on the morning of 12/26/19, my Brave wallet sent out 29 additional transactions in increm…

It happened AGAIN. I’m still waiting for my first refund of 129 BAT. I was notified this morning that I was granted 25ish BAT. Then I watched it slowly drain, one by one, out of my account down to zero. I have auto-contribute turned off, and I am running Brave version 1.1.23. Even if I get the refun…

I have just had 90 BAT stolen from my account! i had my auto contribute turned off! please refund me ASAP. thank you

Whilst the auto contribute bug is being resolved should the feature not just be disabled and not an option at all for users? It doesn’t make much sense to release a patch which doesn’t resolve the issue. Just disable the feature through code and once it has been patched then re-release. This will…

Hey everyone – see an update to this issue here: https://community.brave.app/t/an-update-on-recent-brave-rewards-issues-and-next-steps/103482 We will be refunding anyone affected with a double BAT bonus. :slight_smile: We appreciate your patience big time!

Hi, I got mail today from Uphold that 60 BAT had been sent to Brave Publishers. I’m not sure how that happened. I checked my browser wallet and it mentioned “Auto-Contribute” but I’ve always had it off. Please let me know what needs to be done to get this corrected.
