Dude gets his $100 Steam Card torn up and posts it to /r/WellThatSucks. Another dude pieces together the code and gets it refunded for himself. Everyone gets buttmad. Drama spills over into another subreddit.

Fuckin Lmao why are redditors so retarded. BTW post. Pictures of your credit card cut up Pls and the back of it

Did you know if you post your social security number, Reddit automatically censors it? Check it out **--***.

Protip: You can actually use credit cards on Amazon without the CVV number on the back.

In what third world shithole do you live?

I'm pretty sure it works the same way for most countries, just go try it.

And post screenshots so we know it's real

In India, we usually have a second check, via OTP. The one time I had to make a payment to a US based company, there was no OTP requirement.

So third world shitholes actually have better CC security.

South Africa checking in. We also need one time pin. Then a follow up query asking for final approval. Still, fuck that guy in Tel Aviv who cleared my card not 15 minutes after I had collected it at my branch in Cape Town and hadn't even activated it yet.

it's a US only thing I believe

Nah, UK also.

It only works in the US mate.

I agree that it was dumb to post the picture but the guy who stole it is a complete shithead

It's a perfect shitstorm and great example of humanity. Human A does something stupid Human 1 takes advantage. Everyone on the sidelines wins

Its like one big analogy of capitalism amirite

#Resist

Yes it is. Still better than communism equivalent tho.

It's a perfect shitstorm and great example of humanity. Human A does something stupid Human 1 takes advantage. Everyone on the sidelines get sent to the gulags

Name your humans using the same system please

Human A Human 1

Fuck off.

That makes him smart.

But does it not make him dumber or i don't know extremely cocky for posting what he did? I think this is the digital equivalent of slapping someone in the face with your dick out.

It doesn't really make him dumb. It just makes him an asshole. It's not like there's any real world repercussions for bragging about being a prick anonymously.

unless you were u/violentcrez

Having information on his profile that made him doxxable was the really dumb part.

Just like the CNN meme guy.

It's both.

A thief is smart if they can identify a good mark and pull off the theft. A thief is stupid if they brag about pulling off the theft in public.

What about Goldman Sachs? Hillary Clinton? Are these the real MVP's

Nah, 200 IQ thievery is pulling off the theft and then bragging about it in a way that people are convinced that the theft was 100% legal.

In Hillary's case, well, it cost her an election, so I'd say "stupid."

Nah man, Hillary Clinton could have given birth to the second Christ and she still would have lost.

Nah, steam will realize what happened and ban the guy over $100.... my account has a value of $1444 — $2340 per steamdb.

pretty shit trade.

Then there will be a post online about how steam banned them for 'no reason' and asking how they can force steam to reverse the ban.

This $100 lesson is worth more to him that some videogames

If he were smart he'd have redeemed it on another account and then traded steam gifts for real money

That person getting banned from steam would be epic.

hey, finders keepers. if you cant play the game, then get out of the way.

He put in the effort for it when the OP just wanted to whine

stole it

Dude posted his codes online. He basically gave it away to whoever could solve the puzzle first.

Lol, the company I work for has a policy where if the person can prove the store credit was stolen, the assets will be frozen and transferred to the person who purchased the gift card.

working at a place with retail locations

Disgusting.

No need to get butthurt

Redditors have never needed a reason to get butthurt.

/u/Spoopy_Watermelon still sucks and he should actually khs

steam customer support is notoriously bad and hard to make progress with

/the company I work for

Ruby Tuesday's?

Delicious

Jew
Not owning the company

Have I been lied to about your kind all my life? Guess I'll go back to thinking Zoroastrians are the master race.

/u/planeguy58 what were you thinking when you decided to post a pic of a valid giftcard online?

Have you been diagnosed with any type of learning difficulty or perhaps a touch of the tism?

Touch of Tism sounds like a soap opera.

Possibly starring this "hilarious" character https://i.imgur.com/XfThtKc.jpg

BAZINGA!!! amirite?

Bazirite.


Bleep-bloop, I'm a bot. This portmanteau was created from the phrase 'BAZINGA!!! amirite?'. To learn more about me, check out this FAQ.

Holy shit, there's a bot for everything.

Is that Sheldon's gemsona?

Shouldn't it be Portmantrobot?

Bazpuga

Equatorial Guinea

I love steph curry he’s my favorite actor

/u/planeguy58 what were you thinking when you decided to post a pic of a valid giftcard online?

I'm voting for a touch of the 'tism.

He wanted someone or multiple someone's to give him replacement gift cards probably. That and the tism.

'tism makes you socially inept. This is in the 'tarded spectrum.

hey u/spoopy_watermelon, what's it like to steal money from children?

not that guy but it's fucking great.

Alright then I fucking will kill myself anyway, I've been planning on doing it for months now and it will be with great timing in the Christmas season. Thanks for putting faith in my life.

PSA: I did that to make said person remove it IMMEDIATELY. You can't just contact steam support on a card and it's numbers. If you could people would be walking in stores and taking the numbers and waiting for people to buy the cards to say it didn't work and get cash. You being a uncultured swine don't know what is real or not. Maybe if you fucking get a job I'll be able to move out from my basement.

/u/Spoopy_Watermelon Good, seems like you are on board with keeping yourself safe.

What a dramatic weenie

some trollxer on reddit pulled that shit here in a post just a couple weeks ago

Did they follow through?

How would someone write a URL in a suicide note?

hey twitter check out my new credit card heres a photo!

update: someone stole my shit

this shit happens constantly and is always funny, stop posting sensitive information in photos

I remember going to #creditcard on Instagram and seeing so many thots posting pics of their first card. Fucking retards.

iirc there was a twitter acct that curated them for a while but was probably banned

like "free money" or some shit

the other good one is boarding passes

I still like @dumpmon if I ever need a premium porn account.

Valve's marketing team is creative as fuck

This seems a little too naive. Your gift card gets defaced and your first reaction is to post an unedited picture to social media? And then a throwaway not only takes it, but logs on just to brag in the douchiest way possible?

Maybe I'm too cynical, but this seems like the perfect setup to not only keep your $100, but get multiple additional $100 donations from gullible redditors.

I am with you on this. I don’t understand how the number could actually get ripped off like that. It’s designed not to happen.

Is this victim blaming?

Autism Posts. And it's time to steal them.

lmao what a hero

FUCK why didnt snappy save this?

Use Ceddit.

Yo where's snappy is he on christmas holidays

The entire thing got nuked anyone have archive?

Its gotten removed anyone got archive?

Reddit would be way better if mods didn't constantly nuke threads

steam support actually does something

obviously fake

its deleted. Anybody got an archive or a screenshot of it?
