Happy Holidays - Fraud Print E-mail

Well, the holiday season is fast approaching and here's a new scam to be aware of when buying gift cards for those you only have to see once a year.

Aa friend of a friend of a friend sent this email.

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 waiting for a few days before calling to see how much
of a balance THEY have on the card.  Once they find the card is
"activated", they go online 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 ogres.
