I said nothing about criminal. Please be sure to make sure which part of which post your addressing when quoting someone. I don't think you meant it that way, but thats kind of how it appears.
Anyway, to me it seems you took advantage of the BB loophole and told at least one other person about it. Loophole or not, to me if you knowingly use a gift certificate multiple times that you only paid for once, you are immoral. If it could be proven, it would also be criminal. BB probably realized their loophole, closed it, and isn't interested in pursuing it further, so it's of no real concern to me. It still disturbs me when people are willing to do such things, but obviously your transaction record here is very good.
