Tyrone Shoelaces Posted June 19, 2023 Posted June 19, 2023 This may not be a scam but it feels like it - My eldest son bought me “ life style gift card “. for Father’s Day. The ones where you can shop at hundreds of well known high street stores. Of course you have to register your voucher. After jumping through several hoops you come to the “ I am not a robot “ bit. 9 screens - tick the screens that have traffic lights, cars, buses, pushbikes, stairs, bridges, motorbikes. After about the 40th set of 9 screens I gave up. Life’s too short to chase after £20. I’ve sent them an email complaining about this. Watch this space 1 Quote

Tyrone Shoelaces Posted June 20, 2023 Author Posted June 20, 2023 (edited) They got back to me today with another password. After that I only had to prove I wasn’t a robot just once this time. Now I’m the proud owner of a TKMaxx £20 virtual gift token. Isn’t modern technology great ? Why my son couldn’t just give me a £20 note is a mystery. Edited June 20, 2023 by Tyrone Shoelaces 2 Quote

RoverDom Posted June 21, 2023 Posted June 21, 2023 Yeah ironically AI would probably be quite good at passing the not a robot test. We could probably train it to be better than humans at it Quote
