or come up with another lie because lying gratuitously is so awesome!

Wiki:

Is the 2K limit per store or CVS as a whole?

This is lying in the same way as it's lying to say "When I dropped the rock, it did not ignore gravity and go up". Doing the action is roughly irrelevant to fact that the asked for behavior is completely nonnsense...

Yeah, sounds like the rep thought there was a problem activating the card rather than using it to make a purchase. There is no such thing as "scanning the barcode" on a credit card to make a purchase with it...

It sure did sound like nonsense, but I didn't have time for an extended conversation and left to deal with it another time. Btw, it sounded like all Blackhawk calls were answered off shore (unlike Bancorp).

Ok guys i know this question is super random and some might think stupid but hear me out. Is it possible to use a fake id at cvs to bypass the 2k daily limit? Like, would they scan? Anyone with experience using fakes here? Thanks.

Find my post about creating a barcode for passport....

That would be in general a bad idea, unless you have cashiers willing to risk their job to scan a barcode you print out on a piece of paper that is clearly not an ID. I would highly recommend not going down the path you are contemplating.

Let's see whether this is a misdemeanor offense or a felony offense in your state.

Possession, Production, Alteration, Sale, and Use

Fake ID laws cover a wide range of activities. These laws prohibit anyone from making or selling false documents, altering legitimate documents, purchasing them, using them, or possessing them. Possession crimes are likely the most common, and you can be charged with a fake ID crime even if you never try to use it to try, for example, to illegally buy cigarettes.

States have a variety of laws that punish false ID crimes, and different actions can result in different crimes. For example, a state may make it illegal to use any ID in an attempt to establish a false identity, while it may also make it illegal to falsely use a state-issued ID, such as a birth certificate or driver's license.

I didn't mean printing a barcode on paper, i meant like an actual fake id. Like what underage kids use to get into bars. I've never used one so i don't know if they'd scan at a store like cvs.

Read Happy's post.

Your question is silly, and that's putting it nicely - if kids can get into bars with fake IDs, of course they will probably work at CVS.

Dont think it would work at CVS as the bar most likely they just check the ID picture with the person but at CVS the ID info is entered into the system then checked against the data base so the ID info must be valid - be it DL, Passport or GE card, has to be valid ID I would think.

More information from the link - that address the most common offense as the poster mentioned... It is a crime. If one contemplates to commit a crime for some gain, make it big, not the silly $25 rebate on each card... :rolleyes:

Real ID, Wrong Person

False identification laws also penalize people who use a real ID, even though that ID isn't their own. For example, a college student might borrow a friend's ID in order to get into a bar or buy alcohol. Using borrowed or stolen IDs is a false ID crime, though some states have specific laws that make using a borrowed ID a less severe crime than using, for example, a forged document.
Other Crimes

Many, if not most, fake ID crimes involve people under the age of 21 or 18 who try to use a fake ID to obtain alcohol or cigarettes. The possession or use of false identification is a crime by itself, and if you use the ID to do something illegal, you can face additional charges and penalties for the illegal activity. If, for example, you use the ID to buy alcohol and you are under 21, you can also be charged with being a minor in possession of alcohol in addition to the fake ID charge.

Smh. I want to go off on you right now, and there's lots of ammo, but i won't. I'll just leave it at thanks for sharing your thought on my question.

I'd love to hear if anyone else has tried this though.

There's no need for the hostility, although I would be interested in hearing your 'ammo' in a PM. :)

You're asking for help with an action that has been pointed out to be blatantly illegal. I doubt you will find many takers or many people jumping at the bit to tell you if they did it.

From previously being under 21, I can confirm that fake IDs work at CVS for buying alcohol. However, I wouldn't recommend messing with that realm if you're over 21 and involving financial stuff with it.
