Steps to reproduce the behavior

The same code worked in version 1.0.0-beta.36

const Web3 = require('web3');
const web3 = new Web3(window.web3.currentProvider);
const abi = [...];
const addr = '0x....';
const myMethodArgs = [...];
const contractInstance = new web3.eth.Contract(abi, addr);
contractInstance.methods.myMethod(...myMethodArgs).send({from, value}, (err, txHash) => {
  if (err) {
    console.log(err);
  } else {
    console.log(txHash);
  }
});

// result is the following error log from metamask

@nivida The same error still exists at 1.0.0-beta.44.

[wardoost]

Experiencing the same error on 1.0.0-beta.46 here, 1.0.0-beta.36 works though

[nivida]

I've tested it with version 1.0.0-beta.46 and it worked for me. I think the fastest way to solve this will be if you could quickly create a small GitHub repo where this error occurs and I can test it with this. I apologize for the troubles and give my best to fix anything asap.

[BigMurry]

1.0.0-beta.46 fixed this issue for me.

[justinkook]

The same error still exists at 1.0.0-beta.48. Unfortunately I cannot change web3 versions. If possible is there an MR that fixes this issue that I can look at?
