I'm screwed. WARNING TO ALL. Do NOT try to use the Polygon bridge to move ETH between Polygon and Ethereum

I tried to move 209 ETH from Polygon to Ethereum using the Polygon bridge but it wouldn't let me because Eth PoS was missing.

So I added the Polygon Weth address to the bridge and clicked on transfer.

What I didn't realise is that the team changed the contract destination address to null without telling anyone or putting any warnings or disabling the transfer contract.

Unless the team reimburses me, I'm screwed.

Edit: someone just pointed out that the Weth should be burned so that Eth on the Ethereum side can be released. I panicked for nothing (my bad). Hopefully, the Polygon team will release the Eth on the Ethereum side for me.

Edit2: for anyone in my situation. Pressing confirm on the bridge explorer didn't work for me. I had to manually go to here, https://withdraw.polygon.technology/ Enter the transaction hash and trigger the withdrawal. Hope that helps.

Edit3: after triggering the withdrawal, the tx completed and the 209 ETH arrived on the Ethereum side.
