My droplet has been attacked and outbound traffic was tremendously high. Will I be charged despite the attack?

Heya, @cccce9f944c949848ba85238abd120
If the outbound transfer exceeds the amount included with your Droplets at the end of the cycle, you will be charged $0.01 per excess gigabyte.
However, if the traffic was generated due to a DDoS attack and exceeds your monthly cap, I recommend that you reach out to our support team and raise this query with them.
