Some freebie lovers are ready to go to great lengths, and one can only envy their perseverance, but one can only regret the hero of this story. Before the holidays, Eugene decided to take part in the Nakyuar for a Million campaign, which was organized by MTS Bank. The guy wanted to win, but the bank did not suit his methods, so instead of a pleasant amount, Eugene received a ban.
According to the terms of the promotion, it was only necessary to pay by QR codes through a fast payment system. Whoever had the most such operations would receive 1 million rubles. Eugene liked this idea, besides, he had a tactic, and he was going to stick to it.
Eugene was an experienced person and therefore first clarified in bank support whether such a trick was allowed. He planned to turn all large purchases into small ones and buy, for example, not 1 kg of bananas, but each separately. They didn’t see anything reprehensible there, they gave the guy the green light, and Evgeny drowned at the holidays.
Every day, for 15 hours a day, he paid for groceries once a minute and did so for 13 days. In total, a decent amount of transactions have accumulated – more than 11,000, so the bank’s security service thought hard and banned Evgeny. He was accused of money laundering.
Eugene discovered that his card and application were banned, got upset, withdrew money from the bank and dashed off a dissatisfied review on the Web. But the bank contacted him and explained that the ban was temporary and would sleep by itself after the end of the action. Employees of MTS-Bank said that Evgeny initially acted dishonestly. The action was to attract people to pay with QR codes and show them that it is easy and convenient. But no one who buys groceries home once a day can compete with 11,000 transactions.
By the way, Evgeny was lucky that it was a real action, and not a surprise from scammers, otherwise they either offer pizza for a ruble, or alcohol. And the essence is always the same – answer a couple of simple questions, and then pay a ruble for a gift. To do this, you just need to enter the card details, yes, that’s all.
