Hi bob3160,
In most cases I agree with you there, but what if you hand your card to those that has forgotten his or hers, so they could get their bonus as well, it then is your card and they are fraudulent...You can make out as many cards as you like..
Well there were certainly those that made up phony credentials making an online account, so they could not be traced that easy and it is rarely checked, so use your nick for a surname (whenever it is in the phonebook), a street name from thedays of the GDR, a non-existing country now, I know f.ravia (once resource engineer, and searchlore guru, well may his soul rest in peace) always taught his adepts to do so to thwart off the leechers, and certain extensions that fed google with bogus search queries do the same, as did a generator that flooded the servers of a notorious spammer - the spamoliator (one even begged for mercy to the makers), I would not propagate these methods and have no need for it, but I can imagine that others have another point of view here,
