At very least, it may result in paying more than you intended once the unauthorized discount is reversed. The Avis Budget Group has been actively identifying abuse when it occurs and taking decisive action when appropriate. In some cases, renters have been placed into our "do not rent" database and other some cases, prosecution has resulted. We are actively monitoring this site and will continue to do so. To those who use this site to obtain legitimate discounts, we appreciate your business. To those who knowingly commit fraud, you have been warned.

Scare tactics are very rarely the way to go. The location that I planned on using this code for has a lot of locally owned competition, offering rates slightly lower than Avis. The only way I am going to rent with Avis is if I get the lower rate from this code.
If I am denied at the rental location, I will thank them for their time and rent from the locally owned business.
I wonder if AVIS' PR team knows that they have some rogue "Director Of Corporate Security" trolling message boards, undoing any good will the company has with some of their top customers.
