Bradford man arrested after being found attempting to defraud McDonald's loyalty scheme

    A motorist stopped by police was found with hundreds of fake McDonald's coffee stickers in his car.

    The driver in Bradford was found with multiple sheets of stickers, similar to ones McDonald's customers are given when they buy hot drinks.

    Police said he was trying to defraud the loyalty scheme, in which six stickers can be exchanged for a free coffee.

    The man was stopped on Westgate Hill Street on Sunday by the Steerside Enforcement Team, which deals with anti-social and criminal use of the roads in Bradford.

    West Yorkshire Police confirmed the driver was given a "community resolution" for fraud in relation to the stickers and also arrested on suspicion drug driving.

    He will be summonsed to court for the drug-driving offence.

    Following the incident, a McDonald’s spokesperson said: "Anyone attempting to use what our restaurant teams believe to be counterfeit stickers will be declined their free coffee."
