Can everybody just lay of him! He put in some random numbers and he got the Wii points but HE DIDN'T spend them so why is everybody so worked up about it?

Before you call people liars, don't lie in your signature

U don't have to believe it, but it's possible, and I'm pretty sure it worked...

Or I'm a *bleep*

All I'll say is I'm glad I'd never buy a Wii Points card then and rather just use my credit card...

Good thing Big N took those points away... you sir, are a bad, bad man...

I'd laugh if he downloaded something and then just never connected his Wii to the net again. Free games ftw.

I hope those arn't mine, otherwise I don't care. I have an unopened package I haven't touched for 4-5 months.

Doesn't it record the numbers of previous cards you've used?
No idea, but don't worry, it's all sorted out now, Nintendo sent me a message about the points and took them away. If only I could see the faces of the people who had the wrong cards
What would of happened if you spent them?

To be fair, Nintendo is also to blame for incidents like this. There has to be a lot of cards out there, so it's only inevitable that someone gets curious, punches in a random number, and earns free points.

There really should be more security measures for redeeming the cards. For example, your name is attached to the number when you buy it at the store and you must enter the name with the number. Another option would be to have two sets of numbers that only work when used together.
