Why did the auto-bidder send a bid for a job post with a budget of $5/$10/$999, even though I specified a different amount in the Minimum Fixed Price Budget field?

This could be because you have selected the Include Budget Placeholders checkbox in your scanner’s Project preferences.
​
​

Typically, amounts like $10, $5, or $999 act as placeholders for clients to fill in. However, it is important to note that occasionally these figures represent the final project budget set by the client.
​

To prevent this from occurring in the future, you must unselect the Include Budget Placeholders checkbox. ✅
