Sometimes it happens, just talk on chat where the agent comes. If not you can also use the phone call support option.

No probs, this unauthorised access issue happens while storing the root account credentials or sometimes. access keys locally. Use software like keepass to store passwords.

Oohh!! So you mean it was not manually created by any person? Or how? Yes, I had stored the access keys locally on Obsidian Notes app. I mistakenly also committed to GitHub the encoded keys. And were stored in my GitPod account as env vars. Not sure which method triggered this issue.

Never write the encoded keys in your code, even if you have written make your repository private and then commit on GitHub. I'm assuming you have commited on public repository which is visible to everyone. GitHub portal also has option where u can store your access keys and all and you can use it through environment variables.
