Dear OpenAI Team and Moderators,
I am writing to report a suspected exploit regarding the ChatGPT registration and trial mechanism.
It appears that some individuals or groups are bypassing normal registration limits by exploiting a loophole associated with specific regional payment/registration methods, specifically Vietnamese Momo accounts.
Key details of the suspected abuse:
-
Bulk Registration: Bad actors are utilizing automated tools and Vietnamese Momo accounts to mass-register and acquire ChatGPT trial accounts.
-
Resource Abuse: This behavior bypasses intended trial limitations, allowing these groups to repeatedly harvest trial benefits. This not only drains platform resources but could also degrade the service experience for legitimate users.
Suggested actions for the team: I highly recommend that the engineering/security team investigate this pattern. Specifically, it might be helpful to review:
-
Registration sources and frequencies tied to the “Momo” payment/verification method.
-
Device IDs and IP characteristics associated with these bulk registrations.
-
Logs of trial qualification acquisitions to identify automated harvesting behaviors.
If this exploit is confirmed, I hope the team can patch the loophole promptly and take appropriate action against the abused accounts.
Victory to the direct top-up users!
