SOOOO, in case you are NOT aware let me explain my predicament:
End of August, 2023, I purchased a VISA gift card from my local grocery store WITH $100 THAT I PAID FOR THE CARD AT Publix for a birthday gift for my friend's birthday, 9/3. Well, I purchased a SCAMMED GIFT CARD... After 2 months working with Publix, their corporate office, and now VISA -- MY MONEY WENT INTO THIN-AIR AND THERE IS NO RECOURSE FOR ME THE CONSUMER BECAUSE THE CARD NUMBER IS NOT A VISA CARD NUMBER... REALLY??????????? WELL, WHO TOOK MY $100 THAT I PAID WITH FEES... WELL, THAT WAS VISA -- BUT THEY CANNOT HELP ME BECAUSE THE CARD NUMBER ON THE GIFT CARD IS NOT A VISA NUMBER.... OMG -- WHAT A COMPLETE SCAM THIS HAS TURNED OUT TO BE -- AND GUESS WHAT I AM THE ENTITY THAT GOT SCAMMED.... FOR YOUR ADVANCED KNOWLEDGE -- I SUGGEST YOU NEVER, EVER, EVER PURCHASE ANOTHER GIFT CARD EVER -- THE LIKELIHOOD IS YOU WILL GET SCAMMED JUST LIKE I DID! I AM SO UNHAPPY... THIS IS EVER SO WRONG, TO ME THE CONSUMER!!!

So sorry to hear that this happened to you and others. That is their matrix. We have to choose to exit it. Cash is king. I hope you may be able to find a way to recover your funds Patriot. If it was a credit card charge you can dispute it. Good luck. 🍀

I had the same with a Walmart card a few years ago. Only time I ever bought a gift card...

It's a con artist's paradise. Victims get the shaft. I personally only buy gift cards from the business itself. If I give someone a gift card to a restaurant, I purchase it from the restaurant. Hopefully something works in your favor going forward. Ya never know. I once found a $100 dollar bill on the ground next to a convenience store. No matter what, enjoy the day.

Wow, that is horrible to go through! I am sorry for your loss! But TY for the collective learning lesson here! While not all cards would be scams, how would one even know if it were a scam until it happens. I wonder how many other people that this is happening to!
Did you contact Consumer Financial Protection Bureau or the BBB?
Just asking, I am sure you spent hours on this!
I hope there is some type of recourse for you to get your money back!
