How to deceive a large trading network and buy a PlayStation 4 for a quarter of the price

Do not think that before you a detailed instruction on how you can get the game console PlayStation 4 almost free. This is just the story of several enterprising American teens who have found a vulnerability in the Walmart chain.

It all began quite trite: the largest in the US trading network Walmart published an open offer that if a buyer finds in another store any product cheaper than in Walmart stores, then he will be offered an even more favorable price.

Such a policy is practiced even in Russia. Most often it can be found in large retail chains that sell electronics. But we still have "protection from cunning", and Walmart simply did not have it.

The thing is that the management of the trading network did not take into account such an option that buyers can play on the price difference with online stores in which you can publish ads on your behalf. And this was their fatal mistake. Several buyers simply created on the marketplace Amazon ads on the sale of PlayStation 4 at a price of 50 to 100 dollars.

Since such announcements, with the obviously unrealistic price tag from the Amazon store, are immediately deleted by the moderators, the attackers just took screenshots of their ads, and then printed them on the printers with the date.

With these printouts, scammers came to the network Walmart and without any problems got a brand new console PlayStation 4, which costs 399 dollars, at a penny price. Especially distinguished are the lucky ones who managed to snatch the console for only $ 50. They boasted of their victory in Twitter, until they got into the news on the pages of major video game websites, after which they quickly deleted photos of their checks from their microblogs, so as not to cause suspicion and not to lose attachments.

What can you say: the laws come up with hundreds of people, and how to circumvent these laws - come up with millions of people. Here and this time the human wit turned out to be above the multi-billion dollar system.
