I missed what happened with AWS? Any details
- SimonKinds 9y agoI'm assuming the person you replied to is referencing emails that AWS sent out on New Year's, stating incorrect forecasted usage. Some discussion can be found on reddit https://www.reddit.com/r/sysadmin/comments/7ndlk7/aws_anyone_get_any_bizarre_billing_alerts_with/ https://www.reddit.com/r/sysadmin/comments/7ndlk7/aws_anyone...
- jerrysievert 9y agonot sure on exact details, but I received one as well, on a free-tier account I had sitting around with an empty dynamodb table that was showing very high projected usage. it was enough that I logged in immediately thinking that account had been hacked. nope, still empty table, deleted it and went to bed. glad I wasn't the only one who got that.
- dghughes 9y agoSame here. Mine was on standby so I terminated it. I wasn't sure what was going on so I nuked everything cancelled my account and will hope for the best.
- dghughes 9y agoAmazon sent me an email this morning (Jan 3, 2018) to say I have a bill but I had already cancelled my free account. I can't see what I owe (hopefully zero dollars) because my account is now non-existent. One tiny Ubuntu instance I barely used and then put on standby. Then terminated. Ugh :(
- lscotte 9y agoSame for me, a dynamodb table I created 5 years ago with one k/v pair (test=foo) and never accessed since...
- grepthisab 9y agoI got an email that I was going to go over usage, and then another minutes later that I was over. Logged in, only had a lambda sitting doing nothing.
