I strongly suspect that the site had an agreement that said, "When you deposit x dollars, you get y points." You seem to be morally juvenile. When you crack (not hack) a computer system in order to steal merchandise, it doesn't matter how "stupid" the system was. I think a deadbolt is pretty fucking "stupid", but that doesn't make smashing it open somehow acceptable. EDIT: Frankly, I re-read the original post and I'm not sure what's going on. Is he actually depositing money or depositing a small amount and somehow refreshing it so that it reads like a larger amount? If he is doing the former, then it isn't a hack at all. If he is doing the latter, then it is thievery, pure and simple. I read it the latter way because the former way (as I said) makes no sense as a "hack".

He deposited $50,000 at a time! You were allowed to make as many deposits as you wanted, $500 at once. He didn't steal points, he got the points he was supposed to get for clicking deposit 100 times. Why do you say he stole something? I can't believe how many (people) are misreading Matt's words. There is no fraud, there is no crime. What is your problem?

      No, but I may have the facts all turned around.

Response to edit: >you could make one deposit and then just keep hitting refresh to deposit again and again He is actually depositing money and very large amounts of money. The site made it easy to deposit up to $500, so Matt repeated that process ad nauseum. After a week, when the points cleared, he withdrew the money. The hack is because he was able to get large amounts of video game systems and video games by having his bankroll tied up for one week.

  Okay, but it's not a hack then. Any idiot could sit there depositing a pile of money, withdrawing it, wash, rinse, repeat. He definitely wasn't making it clear as to what was going on.
