How was it a "scam", it didn't fucking cost anything in the first place. I personally remember winning free milkshakes and things after buying something to eat.

it's a scam in the sense that it encouraged people to buy stuff to get game pieces to hopefully win big, but there was no chance to win any of the big prizes

The story I saw a few months ago doesn't seem to exist anymore, so maybe my story was the one that was fake.

Seems like I was wrong.
