I was affected by the recent Railway security breach. I have a small personal calorie-tracking app hosted on Railway that uses Google's Gemini 2.5 API for food photo scans.
Last night around 2 AM, someone used my Google AI API key and drained all $20 of my prepaid credits. I confirmed the unauthorized usage in my Google Cloud logs. Luckily, I only had $20 loaded.
I've reached out to Railway support to see if they'd offer any credit or compensation as a goodwill gesture.
Has anyone else experienced unauthorized API usage from this breach? If so, have you had any luck getting reimbursed or receiving credits from Railway?

Not from Railway, no, but I was refunded from OpenAI
