so mypoints assumes everyone will lie about their birthdate twelve times a year in order to get points? You're saying they PLAN on people lying at every opportunity. You're saying any lie is acceptable if it's taken by someone else. Once again, the moral standard takes my breath away. Stealing is not right even if you can get away with it. Lying to get points, which clearly have value to the person collecting them, is dishonest. It is stealing. It does NOT matter whether there is a loophole allowing it or not. In addition, it causes companies to reconsider giving such 'freebies' at all. This hurts everyone.

Nope, don't buy it. It ain't right just becuase you can. It should be patently clear that it is dishonest and cannot in any way shape or form be turned into honest just because it's in the quest for points.

Stealing,

plain

and

simple

Whoa, there! My comments were meant to be tongue-in-cheek (sorry that I didn't make it more obvious ). I am with you 100%, wormwood.
