150 Tesco Clubcard Points (equivalent of £1.50 or £6.00 on deal tokens) on Every Shop

We've just paid a visit to Mr T.
I put something on the belt for just over £1 and asked for a new clubcard. The first time a clubcard is used it generates an extra 150 bonus points for next use. I think minimum purchase is £1.
I claimed this was for the nextdoor neighbour who wanted to start using Tesco.
Cheeky old me bought a 99p multipack of Doritos in the next transaction. Gave the assistant my clubcard and her voucher back (well that nextdoor neighbour wont know!!) and I got credited with the 150 points on my clubcard
I reckon two of these a week = £3.00 or £12.00 in deal tokens. Need £480 in deal tokens for my two week hire car with Avis. That should just about do nicely.
Scenario can be changed to suit circumstances.

After you have done this for a few weeks, Don't you think tesco will catch on and ban you from the store (if your lucky) otherwise report you to the police or sue you for fraud?0

Don't think so mew,
People have been selling this info on ebay for months @ 99p per auction. They obviously haven't been found out. I've merely worked out what they have done. Have a search around https://www.ebay.co.uk on the topic and see what you get!0 -
ps. "Every little helps"0

I am sure Tescos will cotton on to this very shortly especially when so many new clubcards are being handed out. Until recently the offer was only 100 points but has now been increased to 150. The people selling on ebay tend to sell this information via email on how to do this or sell the vouchers so they are scanned onto someone else's card. I would be surprised if someone did this each and every week, for a start the checkout assistants would recognise them and it would be flagged up at clubcard HO.
I am the only Voucher Queen in my village LOL

Wow do you really believe they'd report someone to the police for adding a few extra clubcard points or sue for fraud? :rotfl:
I hardly think they give a monkeys to be honest.
This little scam has been around for ages and lots of people have used it to gain a few more points.
If Tesco do begin to cotton on to repeat 'offenders' I'm sure they can use a little of their 9 million profit to come up with a system that is scam proof.

Difficult to claim fraud because Clubcard vouchers have no monetary value and remain the property of the company. They'd just remove your Clubcard from the scheme and ban you from all their stores.You don't get medals for sitting in the trenches.0
