Scammers are putting fake QR codes on parking meters in California

I think the credit card companies can up the game by using (or providing to trusted parties) some “lockout” credit card numbers that freeze out any merchant account, and create a camera-ready seizure order for that merchant’s collected funds, when it is not the intended merchant. (I am thinking a parking enforcement entity that would use for “official purposes” that would pay the fees (in monopoly money equivalent) except for any unintended merchant.)
