Make a new account and abuse the youtuber codes I've seen that give you $20 off your first purchase. Been doing it for years

This is actually business logic fraud and something you could be potentially prosecuted for

Actually it seems they are embracing this, and they keep upping the minimum purchase for the codes to be used (used to be $21, then $30, now it’s $50). Additionally they do not require a phone number for signup so that’s on them AND I know people who have used the same email to make accounts after deleting their original ones to use the codes. Trust me, it’s a huge security issue they’ve yet to fix since their inception so they have no case
