I don't drink Starbucks coffee, so I didn't participate in this. There was already an implicit request that this be used for something at Starbucks; otherwise why would he have used a Starbucks gift card? Does Starbucks now sell iPads?
From what I've read I do think this guy would have broken an explicit request concerning scraping; he seems like just another crook that believes they are innocent and always has an excuse.
