I found a bug in Google payments,then asked for an interview,am I crazy?


Hi, Basically any good coder could make a script to exploit that bug automatically, google would then send you money for no good reason, someone knowing this could potentially get a pretty large amount of money before Google even notice, it might even be possible to do it completely legally.

I tried a few times to make sure it was real, I got like 20$ wired on my account, without earning it, without lying, just by creating an account, using my legit personal info, and clicking on a few buttons.

I sent messages to a few of their recruiters on Linkedin, telling them that I found this bug and if it was enough to get an interview at their company haha...

I'm waiting for an answer right now.

Was that a dumb move? What should I do now?I live in Europe by the way.

First, I would have made a more official report on that bug, then wait for their feedback. After that, I might have bring this matter up.
