They can also false positive your account, which I’ve personally seen. It’s incredible because the software doesn’t tell you what’s going on. The backend just rejects you.

I’m sure false positives happen, that’s inevitable. Them not telling you anything other than to contact CS is pretty standard practice.

You don’t want malicious actors that are poking and prodding to take notes.

But CS tends to be pretty friendly about it, even when you clearly tried to pass off a BS serial as real, so there’s that.
