Well the crooks have found a way to rob you

of your gift card balance.

If you buy Gift Cards from a display rack

that has various store cards

you may become a victim of theft. Crooks are

now jotting down the card

numbers in the store and then wait a few days

and call to see how much

of a balance they have on the card. Once they

find the card is

"activated", and then they go on-line

and start shopping. You may want

to purchase your card from a customer service

person, where they do not

have the Gift Cards viewable to the public.

Please share this with all

your family and friends...

And unfortunately, it's true:

Yeah I heard this on the news said that if you buy gift cards buy from
the ones that have them behind the counters lol heck even that is not
safe really for you don't know if the crooks work for them or not lol.
