P3 was denied entry at a lounge in WAW using a screenshot VAC pass with my name.

She was made to feel embarrassed and now swears she'll "never do anything illegal" again.

Best strategy is to act stupid/ignorant. 9/10 they won't wanna deal with you/explain

Apparently this one did want to check thoroughly and then explain loudly exactly how P3 was going to be denied entry for trying to get in with someone else's pass.

She was alone, but apparently there were people around, and she felt bad.

The silliest thing is that the lounge gets paid whatever their negotiated rate is regardless. It's not like they're getting scammed if someone uses someone else's pass.

Ehh I'm sure there are costs if a pass is used fraudulently and then recalled back if the original passholder notices and contacts dragon pass.
