Id take free Mcdonalds for a year via exploit over this. Heck they might have never catched it!

Eventually some accounting report will surface the discrepancy and the cops will be waiting for you.

No McDonalds is worth a felony.

I wonder how many hashbrowns a "robinhood" style hacker could have sent to strangers, or orders-in-transits discounted to a dollar, before they caught on.

in my experience corporate appathy in large companies is a near infinite resource but im probably still to optimistic.

it reminds me of a mysterious building no one knew the origin or purpose of. someone filled a form for poor cleaning then the message bounced around between a dozen cleaning companies who didn't have a contact for it. after decades a cleaning company filled a form because it didn't have a number and wasn't on the drawings.
