It is not gaming the systems,but tampering.
If a technician/ worker in Govt currency printing press has the knowledge of how currency is printed,he can not print them on his own.IT IS ILLeGEAL
The same is the fraud committed by Kohls scammer.He used his knowledge to defraud the company which is the owner of the Kohls cash

The airmiles guy has legally purchased the products and took advantage of teh loop hole

oka bird story chepthaa vinu...

http://gizmodo.com/how-an-engineer-earned-1-25-million-air-m iles-by-buying-1339646546

His most famous endevour was back in 1999 when he saw that Healthy Choice was having a promotion on their frozen entrées section. The offer was as follows: for every 10 bar codes of their product a person sent in, they’d be awarded 500 Air Miles. However, the company had an early bird stipulation that people who redeemed the offer within the first month of the competition would receive double that, meaning a person could potentially receive 1000 Air Miles for buying just 10 of their entrées.

Upon catching wind of the deal, David scoured his local supermarkets to see which, if any products offered the best potential return. After some legwork, he found what he was looking for- a discount grocery chain that was selling individual chocolate pudding cups for 25 cents each. This meant that for a measly $2.50, he could get 1000 Air Miles.

Realising the amazing return he was potentially able to receive, David set out to hit every store in the chain in one day and buy up every single Healthy Choice pudding they had.

Now, you’re probably thinking a guy walking into several stores and asking to purchase all the Healthy Choice pudding they possessed, even in the back of the store, would arouse suspicion; and if anyone cottoned on to what he was doing, they’d try to get in on it too, because, why wouldn’t they? David apparently had the same concern and while buying the pudding, he told people he was doing it because he was stocking up for Y2K, which was just around the corner.

All in all, David spent just over $3000 on pudding, which may seem like a lot, until you realise the total dollar value of the miles he was set to receive was in excess of $150,000. However, before that, he actually had to send off all of the bar codes.

According to David, his wife got blisters from peeling off hundreds of stickers and his kids and co-workers grew physically sick of the sheer amount of chocolate paste he was forcing on them. Further, it began to look doubtful they’d be able to peel off all the barcodes in time to qualify for the early bird part of the promotion.

This is when David had another idea- why did he need to have his wife and children suffer when he could get others to do the leg work for him?

David approached the local Salvation Army with an offer; if they gave him a bunch of volunteers to peel off all the bar codes on his pudding, he’d donate the pudding to them. But here’s the beautiful part, doing this counted as a considerable charitable donation, which let David claim just over $800 back in tax deductions at the end of they year.

But the benefits of David’s scheme didn’t end there. After sending off the bar codes and getting back his 1,280,000 miles, (he got a few more than just from
he pudding because he also bought some soup at 90 cents a can before he realised that was the sucker’s method), he now officially had over a million miles in his frequent flyer accounts, which automatically gave him lifelong access to something called the “American Airlines AAdvantage Gold club” giving him and his family a number of awesome flying related perks for the rest of their lives.

But we haven’t even got to the best part yet. David will likely never run out of Air Miles because he’s still earning miles at about 5 times faster than he’s spending them, despite traveling quite often, thanks to various frequent flyer incentive programs he keeps an eye out for and exploits just like the pudding scheme. Today, he has over 4 million miles in his various accounts and has flown to over 20 countries and taken numerous vacations in the meantime.

In the end, for a one time cost of a little over $3000 (or a little over $2200 if you subtract the tax deduction), and a few other similar deals he’s taken advantage of to bolster his numbers, David never has to pay for a flight in his life ever again. Genius.

A computer engineer in New Jersey who defrauded the Kohl's Cash rewards program of hundreds of thousands of dollars was sentenced to 18 months in federal prison Thursday and ordered to pay nearly $450,000 in restitution.

Pavan Gurram, 35, an Indian national who had been in the U.S. for a half-dozen years on a work visa, admitted he created a computer program to swipe Kohl's Cash certificate numbers but didn't explain why someone with no criminal record and no apparent need for money would devise such a fraud.

Gurram and his wife, Vanaja Gattupalli, 27, also from India, earlier pleaded guilty to fraud in federal court before U.S. District Judge J.P. Stadtmueller.

Gattupalli, considered more of a sidekick to the scheme, received six months' probation. Both will be deported to India after their terms.
