Deposit machines, which are already in wide use, could automatically read the token.

I guess someone could hack the machine? Other than that, though, it seems secure.

And also I'm not sure how knowing the date I bought a Pepsi could be useful for scammers.

You are right, machines could work for smaller/standardized stuff ๐Ÿค”

As for scammers, since kind of fake recall where you have to for some reason pay something in advance probably. But trust scammers and grifters to figure something out, they always do.
