In October 2015 Mr. Sanmay Ved briefly acquired ownership of the domain name, Google.com, because the company he had forgotten to renew it.
Of course, the event did not last long, and Ved had no intention of buying it name the company's. But Google decided to offer him a financial reward.
Initially, Ved declined to say how much the company had given him, and when he did, he said it was "more than $ 10.000."
Today, Google announced the amount in "Google Security Rewards - 2015 Year in Review. "
Initially, Google paid 6,006.13 dollars to Ved.
But when he found out that Ved donated these money for charitable purposes, the company doubled the amount.
