I just read the article and I've sold probably 6 vouchers over the last couple of years to one of the 2 travel agencies listed in the article. This company would advertise that they wanted SWA vouchers in the local paper. I would meet them with the paper vouchers and they would pay cash (anywhere from $240-300). I stopped flying SWA, but was sent a promo offer last year and was able to earn 2 electronic vouchers. This same travel agency sent me a mailing last year informing me that they still purchase the electronic vouchers. Interested in making an "exhange", I left them 2 messages over the last 2 months, with no return call. Now I guess I know why.

So to answer your question, as a past seller, I have not been contacted nor have I been "busted" (as of yet).
