Life hacks are usually simple tricks and tips to help save you time and energy, but it turns out, there are some morally questionable ones as well. A Reddit post has people sharing those by asking, “What’s the most evil life hack you know?” It seems people know a lot of these and they’re willing to share them, as nearly 3-thousand have come in so far and these are some of the best … or worst.

  • “I use my ex's and bosses phone numbers at Kroger's fuel pumps to steal their discounts.”
  • “Tell the truth 99% of the time. Then when you have that credibility, you can lie and people will believe you.”
  • “Never give away your full hand when you start a new job. Hide some of your skills and talents until you need them to get ahead. It's always easier to ‘improve’ when you're starting at 50% capacity.”
  • “Mention ‘credit card chargeback’ to get a refund when a company won't budge; they'll usually cave to avoid the hassle.”
  • “Work correspondence hack: Anything that benefits you, put it in an email, letter, etc. so it can be memorialized when possible. Anything that is detrimental to you, make a call or discuss the issue face to face verbally. Don’t leave a paper trail.”
  • “In many elevators you can hold down the ‘close door’ button while choosing the floor to get a non-stop ride. Meant to be used by rescue service/firemen”
  • “If you don’t want someone to sit in front of you at the Cinema, pour some of your coke on the seat.”
  • “Walk into a Chipotle, Panera, or any restaurant that puts online orders on a shelf. Walk up to the shelf with confidence and take one of the bags and walk out. Free meal”
  • “When you enter a raffle drawing, fold or crinkle your ticket/slip of paper a little bit. It makes it slightly more likely to be drawn. It's worked for me a few times and I feel a little guilty every time.”
  • “Walmart has a 90 day return policy for pretty much everything they sell. AC broken/heat wave? Rent a couple window units from walmart. Want a 72" oled TV for a super bowl party? Rent it from walmart…”
