For a major grocery chain with a Savers Card program, they wanted my name, phone number, etc. They claimed they would not not sell my data. I made up an imaginary name on the spot:
Joseph Kropholer
1. Six months later websites listed a Joseph Kropholer in my town. Unless I actually happened on a real name, they sold me out.
2. Reading the receipt for my name, the clerks in the check out line would thank me with "Thank you Mr Crap Hole-ermmmm. mumble mumble." Then they realize what they just called me. I did not intend that, but it is constantly funny.
