BEWARE: Howler making payouts of your account without consent

I was at a festival and Howler has this nice function where you can auto cashout the remaining funds on your wristband after a show. I loved the idea because then I don't need to go through the hassle of cashing out afterwards. After 2 week waiting period I contacted them and they informed me that this payment was done to someone else without my consent.

I have brought this to their attention and they said they will escalate this, a day later the case was conveniently closed as resolved.

Fair warning that this is the way they trade and anybody can steel / remove your wristband and collect the money on your behalf. Maybe a smart way to make some easy money.
