A name unavailable token used up my credit

Hi, I see a name unavailable token used up my credit, I can’t find this key on my platform. I wonder if my account got hacked.

Hi @Baixuan_N,

I would treat this as potentially compromised until Support confirms otherwise.

Immediate steps:

• Go to your API keys page and revoke/delete any keys you don’t recognize.

• Rotate any keys currently used in apps/projects.

• Check all projects/orgs you have access to, not only the current default project.

• Check whether this could be an old/deleted key that still appears in usage reporting as “Name unavailable.”

• Review your billing/usage date range and export usage details if available.

Open a Support ticket immediately and include the screenshot, org/project IDs, date range, key label shown, token amount.

OpenAI’s docs recommend rotating keys immediately if you suspect a compromised API key and contacting Support quickly so they can investigate. Through Help or email them: support@openai.com

Relevant docs that I recommend that you take a look at:

Hey @Baixuan_N, that’s concerning, especially if you don’t recognize the token/key shown. I agree with @LarisaHaster’s suggestion to treat it carefully for now.

I’d start by rotating your API keys, deleting anything unfamiliar, and reviewing usage across every org/project you have access to. Also double-check that keys aren’t sitting in client-side code, public repos, shared files, or screenshots.

For further clarification, you can visit these helpful articles shared by @LarisaHaster:

For the credit usage showing as “Name unavailable,” please reach out to support@openai.com with the screenshot, org/project IDs, date range, key label, and token/credit amount.If you have already reached out, please share the Case ID so I can take a look.
