Summary
Michael was being charged $250/mo from X.com on his Coinbase card. Investigation found two X.com accounts:
- Account 32799635 (@viral_examples / Rafael’s access) - Rafael has access
- Account 32914278 (“foundingjteam”) - Ben has access; was set to auto-recharge $250 when balance drops to $100; connected to Hermes in some way
Resolution
- Ben turned off auto-recharge on the foundingjteam account (32914278)
- ~$150 balance remains on that account; Michael said to use remaining balance first
- Michael confirmed he personally turned off auto-recharge on the @viral_examples / VE account (Ben did not have access to that one)
- Michael confirmed with Hermes that the other account (foundingjteam) will no longer be used going forward
Financial detail
Moved to Owner tier if billing amounts need tracking. This note is structural (duplicate account confirmed and resolved).
NOTE: Financial specifics (charge amounts, account balances) - see Owner tier for full detail if needed.
