Gift Card Scams?
Many scammers will try to get you to pay them with gift cards. Scammers love gift cards because they are untraceable, and it is typically impossible to recover the money once a scammer has the card details. Common gift card scams include scammers telling you to pay a fee with a gift card to avoid being in trouble with the government or pretending to be a family member or friend who needs the funds for a specific store.
Remember this one KEY RULE: Whenever someone demands to be paid with a gift card, it’s a scam.
