I received an e-mail from a company saying my address was wrong and they needed the correct address for they could send my prize.(a video game)
I fill out the form, and notice that the prize ID is clear in the url.
Thinking nothing of it, I change the ID to see what would happen and it takes me to the change address page.
I enter my address for that ID, submit it and I'm given a confirm page.
Now I do this a couple of times for different IDs, mainly because I was bored and wasn't thinking.
One week later... a bunch of packages arrive at my door.
Yup, the prizes related to that ID. (I'm assuming)
Now these are not 'small' prizes... more like $100+ items.
I'm almost positive that if an audit is performed... I'm screwed as I'm sitting on over $2K worth of stuff linked to my home address.
So where do I stand regarding the law?
Hacking is defined so loosely, I'm kind of worried...
Do I wait it out, send the stuff back, e-mail the company?
I'm mainly worried about being called a 'hacker' and facing $$$ fines and prison time.
Thanks for any info.
