A developer shared backend data showing a freshly registered Japanese user purchasing the $499.90 plan repeatedly — 9 orders within about 9 minutes of signing up, now 23 orders totaling over $10,000 and still climbing. "We're a legitimate product — why is a brand-new user topping up that much?" All orders in the screenshot came from Japan on the same web device, paid at nearly the same time.
