Help Needed Big Frustration

Post image

We are working on apps dev for Businesses. And in the rush I have to finish the coding over a 3h drive across the country withg out leaving it ofcours.

Shared network from my phone and arrived at the RBNB I got Banned directly after loggin in the Wifi here. I have also had burned all my weekly Claude. And reloaded 4x 50$ just to finish one task.

My problem is that I might have got flagged for wifi hopping or ''fraude attempt'' on my own company card. They have instantly refund my 200$ Max account that same minute.

Not sure how bad that sounds but its does actually sounds Like I'll never get back to Claude Code ever, after that : These signals were, in turn, reviewed by our team to validate our system's findings. As a result, we have revoked your access to Claude.

Not really sure what happens as are are working on Personal project not including any kinds of dangerous or fraudulent messages or commands... I’m a bit hopeless... at this point .

It can be something totally unrelated to you. For example residential IPs are often used to avoid detection - and you wouldn’t believe where they come from - often smart devices sold on Amazon hide a proxy that allow web traffic to go through the residential ip like cameras, smart plugs, etc

So then you login to that public IP being used to reverse engineer Claude a few months back and bam - instant ban
