I agree with you though about how the number is easy to generate. It seems like only the last 6-8 numbers on each Hyatt GC is different. No randomness and most of them don't have pins to further stop the "guessing game"
I received an email from CardCAsh apologizing for the 'error' and refunding me for the 4 gift cards that had a zero balance.

Interestingly, those four all had the last four digits starting with a '2'. The 6 that had a balance, all started with a '4'.

Anyway, I shall keep checking them every couple of days until I use them.
