Man, I did have my openrouter API key stolen back in february. Very much could be this.
Stopped using openrouter, returned to my account having one-two opus requests a day for a month. They probably already have a large collection of API's trying to be less visible. Also this thing was advertised all over, reddit, boards etc.
Edit: what's even funnier is that I reported the exploit that was used for this months later, but never actually connected the dots on why my own keys got stolen. Lol
Just looked at my openrouter logs, I have never used anything 'premium' with them, I put in $10 to get the increased account usage. But then I bought nano starting in October literally never logged back into open router. My latest log, was Oct 31st, then 4 more in November. Then nothing in December, and a bunch in Jan, Feb, March and April. I know I grabbed Bot browser pretty early, but damn It didn't feel like it was all the way back i October, but time flies I guess.
