## Summary:
Hi there, first off, I am an actual Stripe customer using Stripe for my real business, so I used my actual Stripe account to test this (as there is no other way). I realize this is not ideal but hope you understand given the unique scenario!
I was recently offered a fee discount of $20,000 on Stripe transactions. Stripe Support applied the offer to my account, and I was shown a prompt to accept the fee discount in my dashboard.
I decided I should try and look for a race condition in this acceptance. So, I used Burp Turbo Intruder to race the request that accepts the fee discount, `/ajax/accept_fee_discount_offer` (forgot to take screenshot as I did not think it would work!).
It seems a race was not even needed though, as I called it 30 times and 30 fee discounts were immediately applied to my account! As a result, I now have $600,000 of fee-free processing applied to my account. Obviously, this is not ideal for Stripe as you only intended to offer me $20,000! I believe you could keep calling this endpoint if you wanted to, you just need a valid `fdo_` ID.

## Impact
Unlimited fee-free discounts. This will cost Stripe about 3% of each discount, so $600 each time a $20k discount is abused.
