On Wednesday, some of the people who posted about the gift card said that when they went to redeem the offer, they got an error message saying the voucher had been canceled. When TechCrunch checked the voucher, the Uber Eats page provided an error message that said the gift card “has been canceled by the issuing party and is no longer valid.”

You can't make this stuff up.

Right when I was thinking this would be fake... because $10 multiplied by the number of affected individuals would be huge... Of course, they had to cancel after a junior dev show the arithmetics to them ;P
