Just want to alert the community to a new fraud risk when purchasing Walmart VGC, any of you remember the MC fraud issue back then? Well I just had that happened with Walmart VGC, purchased a few of them 2 days ago and found out that the balance has been drained in 3 of them cards. The thing is that the package of all of the cards are complete and in tact so not sure how the scammers managed to get a hold of the card numbers. And good luck trying to get a refund since GoBank won't honor any amount for the cards that are not registered online.
Any suggestions on where to report this?
there is another poster who said GD refused to refund one card because it wasn't registered; they gave refund for one card that was registered.
if all else fail, file complaint via CFPB; best to have a police report plus receipt(s) and packages as part of your proof. Good luck!
PS: what city/region was this WM that you bought these GDVGCs? this will help those who are traveling to avoid such store where cards have been possibly compromised.
