What's stopping the 98FM fugitive apprentice cheating?

Hey All
Me and a mate were just wondering what is stopping the 98FM fugitive's apprentice from saying no if you ask him/her if he/she's the apprentice? Like it's in his/her interest not to be caught as he'll/she'll then win the money. Do they have to wear a microphone?

More importantly... what's to stop some scumbag from not taking no for answer after you've already answered and told him you're not part of this promotion.

Utterly stupid competition that gives every asshat in the city free license to bother and hassle people.

Nobody have any idea?

There's a vast amount of terms of conditions for that competition on their website. I'd say you'll find your answer in there. You can be sure they have themselves pretty well covered.

Just found this

"While “on the run”, each of The Fugitive’s Apprentices will be accompanied
at all times by a representative of 98FM who will instruct each Apprentice
on their duties. The Fugitive’s Apprentices must co-operate with the 98FM
representative at all times, and carry out all reasonable instructions as
requested by the 98FM representative."

I also just noticed this condition
"25.The Fugitive must not be asked “Are you the 98FM’s Fugitive’s Apprentice?” in a private residential home or while in some form of private or public transport, or outside the hours of the competition or outside the specific bounty time frames."

Does that mean that the apprentice who was on the luas this morning did not have to say yes if they were asked?

Or he/she could be waiting to bump into someone the kinda sorta know....;)
