The first thing you need to know is this: your GC account is tied-in with your device's MAC address. This is how SE's servers authenticate your device. A lot of people, during launch week, went as far as factory wiping their device to make it look like a new device. They were hoping to refer themselves and get all the referral promo cards.
You can get your device's MAC by going to Settings -> General -> About -> Wi-Fi Address. DO NOT GIVE THIS OUT TO ANYONE. Some scammers have asked for this piece of info (usually before trading) to "check" with SE if the cards you are about to trade with them are legit. There is absolutely no basis for this. All this will accomplish is give them access to your device. At that point, say goodbye to your cards.
