I don't know about the UK but in the US I think they need to be purchased and scanned to be redeemed. And I'm sure it would be easy to mark the serial numbers on them as being stolen.
I do get due process and stuff but it is funny when they have undeniable evidence of someone doing something stupid like this and they still have to be like "we suspect the man in this video, who we arrested, was the person that broke into the store...
Scratchcards. Just another tax on the poor.
In a previous life as a convenience store manager I attended a course on how to "sell" these things. Had to walk out as it was the most cynical process I'd ever witnessed.

He must really like to scratch.
Would it be jeeze?
It was late.
I remember at work I used to scream rabbits in place of fuck so as not to offend.
Within a month, I had everyone doing it.
More money for housing and food, far far less on policing please.
