I'm sure a very simple check and balance would take care of
that... depending on how you distribute the codes to your
customers. Something like a standard promotional code followed by the
Soundex of their last name would work well. The Soundex could even be
"ignored" and just used to track who is giving out promo codes to their
friends. :-) Sorry -- I'm just always looking for a good use for
Text::Soundex.
