The deal I posted, "Get Free ₹10 in GPay," was removed from DD as it was termed unethical and wrong. But thinking about it, I have a question.
They have a point and I'm not completely disagreeing with them. But in that sense, all those sudden price drops of products—whether mistakenly or knowingly done by the seller, gets looted by people within minutes. Indirectly, someone somewhere is always losing money, right? While dimers enjoy and benefit from it, what about those times? In this loot, future buyers are losing out, and in other cases, someone else is also losing, whether it's the seller or a big company. This website is built on the same ethics, I guess? Maybe I'm wrong. No offence to anyone.
I have thought on this on a personal level, but a general consensus is that there is no harm in looting a business, but its considered unethical to loot an individual. Although this 10-20 rupees isnt a big thing, but its been a norm as i have seen multiple deals of this kind being removed, so it has become a rule of sorts.

Looting business => take any e-commerce - it was funded by Big Fishes/Giants, like Flipkart by walmart , Amazon, Paytm by Alibaba and other investors.
Whether they get profit/loss - they will face it, they can recover from their other/next businesses etc. (not limited to this one)
Seller- Either Prices was mistakenly entered by their team or FK Team. Somehow they are directly responsible and they need to face-off for their mistakes.
In this - its Cracking Codes: Its directly affecting individual users/customers of the platform (or the one who buys product). It was surely its not an Ethical way. May be person who cracked it can feel proud - but thats not the same for others.
Just a Example to understand: What if someone post Use this Credit Card Number (data leaked cases) - use the money and buy anything on the internet and move away? Does it sounds correct? Is not that legally/Ethically wrong?
Another Example: You buy a GC from some site: After buying, got cracked by someone and used it without your knowledge - does it ok? Company is responsible for that. But Who did the wrong here?
Customers or Company or one who cracked it and so called claiming Hackers.
Its upto you - whether you want to praise Hackers or not.
One day you/someone might also get trapped by some hackers/spammers in future - If someone supported it and later calling for justice when it happens to them - no logic in it.
No matter Re.1 or 1 Crore - Action is same.
Google Harassment of Customers for any issue is Very Well Known.
Many Customers or Users are still waiting for their Cashback of Gift Cards offer.
For these unethical practices of Guugaal Payy, they should also get some unethical Treatment.
[ The offer is Tie Up with Cadbury, so Cadbury is another Unethical Company which sells Lower Quality products in India for Same cost, they have paid Google too for such Campaign]
Guugaal Payy don't even Give Referral Cashback, even if you do correct Steps.
If you believe in god then don't do such things. If you don't believe in god everything makes sense, no one is going to care a dime after you are dead.
