A Rickroll QR code opens the music video of "Never Gonna Give You Up" on YouTube. It is the internet’s longest-running prank, and a code is the perfect disguise: nobody can tell where it goes until they scan it.
There is nothing to fill in. Design it to look like something people want to scan, such as a "free Wi-Fi" sign or a mystery prize, and wait.
