At least they got the name right.
- Char-fast
- Nomen omen..

Wait...a recipt directly showing you ordered this isn't enough? You have to take pictures and write a note as well. This is like those rebates requiring you to mail parts of the box in. All designed so you don't deal with the hassle.
- They want to see it disabled/destroyed, not just that you bought it. Otherwise a lot of people would simply provide the receipt and get a free-but-dangerous power bank which they would totally stop using, wink, wink.
  
  How does pictures of owning it show you have disabled or destroyed it...which is btw a terrible idea, seriously they're already fire hazards with this recall, are people supposed to take a video of the damn thing on fire?
