When QR Codes go Wrong

[Animedude5555]

So this guy was scanning a QR code on his Heinz ketchup bottle, that was supposed to take him to a special contest website that Heinz was running (at the time the QR code was printed). Unfortunately at the time the guy scanned the code, that contest was over and Heinz ownership of the URL had expired. Even worse, that same URL had since been purchased by a porn website. So when the guy scanned this QR code on his ketchup bottle, he ended up on the porn website. LOL

Here's a link to the news webpage I read this at. http://money.cnn.com/2015/06/19/news...orn/index.html
