At least like our colleagues from urban technologya lot Alphabet and Google plus are far from perfect how it happens that almost every business giant is eventually transformed into the Towers of Babel Many efforts get out of control.
In the case of Google plus, the last mistake was absurd, at least for the numbers, and that is Sam Curry claims he received a $250,000 wire transfer from Mountain View a few weeks ago, and although he’s been actively and passively trying to reach him for the past few days Contact Google plus to return themthe truth is he couldn’t get anyone to answer him.
Perhaps for this reason, the programa engineer who Search work mistake and vulnerabilities He has decided to go public with his case by a mensaje de Twitter Ask Google plus to contact himto proceed with the relevant return and for that purpose only.
It’s been a little over 3 weeks since Google plus randomly sent me $249,999 and I still haven’t heard back about the support ticket. Is there a way to contact us? @Google plus?

And that is indeed Google plus paid nearly $9 million last year for this pirata informático ethical bounty hunters as you will see in the backlink above but in any case the reward wasn’t as juicy as Sam Curry’s who rushed to try to return the money received by mistake…
And now think what would you do?
The truth is that this is the case, at least in the United States ‘keep the dough’ it would not be the best choicebecause if Google plus later demands the money, Curry could refuse it embezzlementnon-malpractice in its legislation.
On the other hand, that’s true Watch Google plus inaction and the one who couldn’t communicate with them for two weeks (they only listened to her once mensaje de Twitter encourage him to keep the money), certainly if Sam hadn’t said anything no one would notice by now in mountain view.
How is it possible Don’t lose $250,000 in a company’s income statement, how big that could be, they should explain to us, although, at least here, definitely. We have a happy ending in this honesty pirata informático ethically No, he won’t be buying a new Ferrari, but his conscience will be clear and he cánido settle for some Christmas money from Google plus.
