There's an even bigger loophole that needs addressing

How come someone collecting bottles for money can think of this loophole that our million dollar experts can't?

A Facebook user has posted a video showing a man apparently exploiting a beverage container return machine’s recognition system by scanning a bottle eligible for a deposit refund, then inserting a different container. Another user subsequently tested the same method, raising questions about a possible loophole in the system.

This guy sabo
later they have to tweak the machine to prevent this kinda thing, then end up take longer time to return one can/bottle 😅
example after you put in one can/bottle, a door will close then they scan it. If okay then they crush it. then the door opens for the next can/bottle :s13:

The Carbon Commitment Link: While this scheme doesn't directly issue tradeable carbon credits to individuals, it is fundamentally linked to broader corporate and national carbon reduction commitments. By diverting over a billion containers from incineration and shifting towards a circular economy, it significantly reduces embodied carbon emissions. Major participating beverage producers use their involvement in the BCRS to satisfy their scope 3 supply-chain decarbonization goals and support national climate commitments.

Nothing to do with scholars.... We sign the carbon thingy so this crap comes with it.

Think of it as for your descendants. 🤣

excellent idea by the brains at the tower again. Score point but bring about more social issue, now the area near those machines stinks instead of properly throwing our trash this movement encourages people to keep trash at their own environment

There was already a thread with video showing this exploit in overseas before our local BCRS was fully implemented.

You didn't know the hack because you didn't see the video. Maybe the FW is spending more time on social media than you.
True. I seldom doom scrolling also.

There will always be one guy trying to find a loophole to game the system one. Legal or illegal.

But this is a well known loophole and limitation of the system. Then who answer for 10cents paid to the guy? Money come from where?

System pays for it
Its either 10 cents from manufacturers or 10 cents from buyers
There'll always be money unless the guy made few hundred thousand from it

the system should restrict each paylah account and unique simply go ID to like maybe a total of 10 can+bottles and within an hour before they are reset to prevent people from hogging the machine.
