In a similar vein, Heinz once used a temporary domain for a promotion accessible by scanning a QR code on their bottles. The promotion ran its course, and they let the domain name expire.

Problem is these bottles were available on restaurant tables for much longer. Didn't take long before scanning the Heinz QR code at your table got you some pornography.
