Hi

I just signed up on Railway. However, I'm getting this error:

"Error authenticating with github

Domain blocked by Railway's abuse and fraud detection model"

So I went ahead to sign up with my google account. I'm planning on linking my github to the same account. Any reason why I got blocked?

Could you share the domain in question? feel free to DM it if you don't want to share it publicly.

Hi @Brody. I connected my account to githb and it seems to be alright now. I thought it might flag it as well but it didin't. so it's all cool now.. i'm just wondering why i couldn't sign-up using my github account earlier. maybe i've not been active?

I am not sure. I do not have enough information to go off of here.

+1 on this issue. I just tried to sign up directly by connecting my Github account and was given the same error.

I am now signing up with another personal email address and attempting to do what Anon did.

I can only guess the fraud detection didn't like:

  • That I had a mozmail email mask on my github account OR
  • That my network connection came from a shared building 🤷‍♂
