I rented my first game from Redbox, MLB 2k13 for Xbox 360, just to see if it is as atrocious as everyone says. Anyway, I get an empty box. Some lowlife scumbags are stealing the games and putting the barcodes in the box in a way that it scans the game as returned. Is this common? Do they have anyway of catching these dirtbags? I had to call Redbox for them to sort it out, which they did fortunately.

Can trace credit cards and who rented it last. I am not sure if Redbox lets people use those temp Visas and such from WalMart though. That would be harder to track.

They've been doing that for a while. Pretty douche move, but Redbox definitely should've expected it.

Why? I've bought PC games before with their Serial Keys removed. Theft hurts all platforms.

Yeah, people would walk into CompUSA back in my day and just steal the cd code out the box.

Sucks, but, figs gonna fig and poors gonna poor. Not a pc/console thing
