So You Love Starbucks

Good Guy Hacker Benevolently Warns Starbucks of Security Flaw, Gets Accused of Fraud

Here's another company that just doesn't get security research. 

White hat hacker Egor Homakov found a security flaw in Starbucks gift cards which allowed people to steal money from the company. 

He reported the flaw to Starbucks, but rather than thank him, the company accused him of fraud and said he had been acting maliciously.

So what would John have said?
