It's almost as if this is the most popular worst tech person. It's like that year all of Reddit voted EA the worst company in the world. There are companies out there costing people their lives by intentional malfeasance but a company is doing video games dirty is the worst...
Nope, you can't pay for anything in this app. The only info they verify as unique are an email and the other loyalty number. They don't even verify if that loyalty number is real. I noticed this because I signed up for that loyalty account twice only to notice the numbers there are generated sequentially so I just took my real number, added 100000 and randomize the last 5 digits
There's about 20 of these gas stations within 15 minutes of where I live. Couple that with rotating staff I suspect it could be used about 60 times before the same clerk would see me twice. If spaced out over a week I'm not sure a clerk would even notice given this is a real promotion that people use.
I don't think you understand the coupon. You get the $10 off to use immediately. As long as your order is over $10 it'll work. I've spun up 3 accounts and pumped just $33 worth of gas and only spent $3 out of pocket. Like literally I just gave each clerk $1 in cash.
In this case, you don't have to spend anything to use the coupon. You have it immediately available when you sign up for a new account.
Basically as the title says. A local gas station chain has released a new app. They give you a one time $10 off your purchase of any purchase over $10 promo coupon.
The only unique identifiers for your account are an email and your number from a different loyalty points service. I noticed they don't verify the loyalty points number so you can put any random number in as long as it's the right length.
The $10 off only requires a $10 purchase. So if I spun up 3 accounts and went to 3 of their gas stations, pumping $11 worth of gas I would get $33 worth of gas for $3. Furthermore, it looks like this promotion works for anything in store, groceries or even gift cards. The only restrictions printed on the promo itself are tobacco, alcohol and lottery.
Their terms of service doesn't specially state anything about having multiple accounts.
Is there anything actually illegal here or is this a loophole they didn't consider?
Edit
After comparing two coupons back to back I just realized it's the same barcode each time. I don't even need to generate new ones.
