Coupon Printout ????

Just a quick ??? Isn't it illegal to sell the file you get when you get a " free item " coupon file?

I would definitely say it is.

Just making sure because I just called one of the companies that I saw someone on EBA Y selling many of the SAME file.

I also called a couple of the other companies the same person had listed. I told them I was only calling because in the long run it costs US more for their products. Most of the companies are sending me coupons as a way of saying "THANKS" So in some cases it does " PAY " do tell what someone is doing.

It is called a PDF file and Yes it is illegal to keep, copy or sell it.From what i have heard, you can go to jail for this...

kgerstorff I was wondering why these people were keeping these files. I didn't understand it. LOL

Well i wouldnt have known about it except that i was involved with a trade that was scanned coupons (on another Board). needless to say i opted out on that deal.They keep the files so they can copy the coupons whenever they want to. The coupons are usually always for free products.One of those"sounds too good to be true"deals.

People like that are going to make it so these companies won't want to offer coupons anymore because people are taking advantage of it.

yeah i know, hopefully they will know that not all couponers are like that. All we can do is watch and when we find something like this then let everyone know so the coupons dont make it around the boards.
