- A Google Pay bug has accidentally sent payments from the company to random accounts.
- The payments have ranged from a few dollars to over $1,000.
- Google has fixed the problem and says “the money is yours to keep.”
If you’re someone who has a Google Pay account, you might want to check out your balance right now. Google may have accidentally given you some free money.
Google Pay users were surprised by something strange earlier this week. It appeared that they had received payments from an unlikely source — Google. One of those lucky users happened to be freelance journalist Mishaal Rahman who shared that he received $46 in rewards. According to Rahman, the payment came with a message stating it was for “dogfooding the Google Pay Remittance experience.”
