API Key abuse: Google offered me a 75% refund - anyone else?

Just wondering the status of other peoples refunds from recent API key abuse in April.

Has everyone been provided with a percentage refund?

Has anyone received a full refund from the abuse saga?

I've also noticed they provided me with a refund but didnt include the +20% VAT so they claimed to give a 75% refund but its actually more like 67% - I'm disputing this at the moment with my support engineer but it seems abit sneaky.

I'm happy they provided the 75% refund but the bill is still pretty unaffordable. I will have to empty my bank account to pay it.

Does anyone who's API key has been abused know what images or text was being generated with their key?

Our API key was used to generate 40,000 ai images but I can't see what they were exactly, if I could see them maybe there would be a way to understand who was doing this.
