  • McDonald’s and Monopoly joined forces to become the McDonald’s Monopoly promotion. But, unfortunately for customers, the game they were playing was rigged from the start.
    This is the story of how one man saw an opportunity and took it. Effectively stealing millions of dollars from unsuspecting public in the process.

    Real question though is why have Canadians not got a class action lawsuit against McDonald's, seems like they owe Canadians probably 100s if not thousands each for just straight up fraud with the monopoly game.

    In one respect he didnt rob McDonalds he robbed their customers since they paid out irrespective. One other thing I'm not sure McD ever picked up on, didnt they realise an unreasonably % of the very high value prizes were claimed? Statistically there should have been many that were not claimed. So to contradict myself in that respect I suppose he did rob McD by making all their prizes pay out when you would expect some to end up in the trash.

    I don't play the Macdonalds Monopoly game because it is a scamm either way. The chances of winning big are slim to none. You better off investing the money you spend at Macdonalds, and you have a higher chance of making better income.

    Wait so uncle Jerry goes to prison for fraud the" fraud"wouldn't have happened if McDonald's wasn't scamming and playing the game fair which should have been happening in the 1st place giving everyone at least an actual chance if McDonald's is scared of someone winning money, boat,car, house, vacation.... Don't put it as a prize
