it keep working until you get caught.....ie when the card schemes become aware
They then punish retrospectively.
If you want to ignore the rules, fine, do so - but there are penalties when caught
Just like every other rule /law etc
Im not sure what sort of police state you live in where you are stopped BEFORE breaking a rule or law, but, if thats the world you live in, then good luck to you.
