This is such a fundamental fraud vector that whoever designed the
system to allow it (while penalising innocent passengers whose
platform was changed at the last minute) should be hung out to dry.

What do you suggest?


Landside validators to confirm you've left the platform.


Which will be even less well understood than pink validators?


"If you enter and exit at the same station without travelling, you
must touch your card at a ticket machine or validator to avoid beeing
charged a (penalty) fare."

Easy to understand.
