ChatGPT can do virtually anything — including getting you unlimited free McDonald’s meals.
A so-called “millionaire” businessman bragged on a podcast that he’s used ChatGPT to scam McDonald’s into giving him 100 free meals by using the artificial intelligence system to generate fake complaints.
Gage, co-host of All Things The Podcast and owner of re-selling group All Things Arbitrage, claimed that he “steals receipts from tills or tables” and uses their unique code to open up a McDonald’s feedback survey.
“If you just put you’re highly dissatisfied with every single answer and then use ChatGPT — you just type in something like, ‘Write about a time that I had a horrible experience at McDonald’s where I ordered a Big Mac and make it under 1,200 characters,’” the 22-year-old Amazon seller said in an episode.
“Copy that, you paste in … it’s usually really bad. And if it’s not bad enough, you might type, ‘Make it worse,’” he continued. “You punch that in, fill in an email, boom. In, like, 12 hours, a representative will send you an email with one, two, or three or four meal vouchers completely for free.”
He claimed to have tricked the fast-food chain into giving him 100 vouchers in just nine months, adding that it “tastes better when it’s free.”
In the clip, which has recently gone viral and racked up more than 17,300 views, Gage admitted that he’s been doing this “since the start of the year” — which, considering the podcast was originally recorded in November 2023, would mean the start of 2023.
He shared that the local McDonald’s “knows him” and won’t give him a receipt for anything.
“They’ve plastered posters up everywhere saying, ‘Please fill in the survey and put highly satisfied,’” Gage said.
His co-host, Ben Wright, quipped that it must be the worst-rated McDonald’s location in the UK.
But Gage claimed, “It doesn’t harm anyone. I’m not mentioning any names — it’s just purely to get the meal voucher.”
People in the comments of the clip on YouTube weren’t happy with Gage’s hack.
“‘It doesn’t harm anyone.’ It will when McDonald’s shut down that branch because it’s had thousands of bad reviews because someone is too cheap to buy a 99p burger,” one person wrote.
“It does harm people, though. McDonald’s obviously target their franchisees and if customer satisfaction drops below a certain threshold then they risk losing the franchise,” another said.
“This guy is what is wrong with this generation! These poor minimum wage workers getting threats to be fired because of his fraudulent accounts,” someone wrote.
