Contactless Payment Door Trap
I make £30 every ten years with my side hustle. 💰 People often try to break into my house by jimmying the lock with a debit or credit card 💳 Instead of calling the police, I place a contactless payment terminal behind the door. Each time their card slides in, it beeps and triggers a £30 contactless transaction. Over the last decade, I’ve made £30. Minus the cost of the terminal and bank compliance, I’m up -£45.
A social media post describes a homeowner placing a contactless payment terminal behind the door so burglars accidentally pay £30 when trying to open the lock with a bank card. The punchline is that this elaborate scheme has earned only £30 over ten years, while fees and compliance costs leave the narrator £45 in the negative. It is sent as an absurd reaction to an unprofitable or overcomplicated plan.
