She’s a HERO!!!
well we should ban gift cards!
No, but we should be making efforts to make potential victims of scammers well aware of their tactics.
Don’t ban them until the end of the week; I have a dollar-store one I need to use.
@Lady Raine This.
Well then you better hope we don’t go cashless any time soon
Bravo, lady!! Nice
But in Walmart they let me buy $2000 gift card and no one ask me even once and now i am under $2000 debt. Who will help me with that!??
Sounds like you’re a scammer. Lmao
you can’t cure stupid
@deb mckay The criminal injury compensation board was disbanded.
Being stupid is expensive
Be glad it wasn’t $20 000 and chalk it up to experience.
The cashier should work in Government.
Lol government is a big time scammer.
The same government that are minions for the devil
AMAZING JOB GIRL!!! FRONT LINE ANGEL!!!!
You go girl – so smart – scamming against senior’s in this country is out of control – thx to this wonderful kind woman
that cashier should get a medal or at the very least a raise!! Thank you for your vigilance and care!
Hey, When they call, I always answer them, its a fun part of my day to ridicule and insult them.
I pretend I’m driving to the convenience store… “Here we go! Vrooooom vrooooom.” lolol.
Not all hero’s wear capes. .. Well done.
Zazur zellers store
Just type “scammers” here on youTube and you will see the stuff they come up with…
Well done, Cathy!
They need to put a sign in the gift card sections warning of scams
Did you know the word “gullible” is not in the dictionary? Go ahead and look if you don’t believe me.

… What happened to his nose?
There’s hope in humanity! And nice to see positivity on the new these days.
My phone number got spammed by “CRA” robocalls a couple of times over the last two or so years, sometimes to the tune of a dozen or so calls per day. Something really needs to be done to secure the phone system against rogue call routing so these scammers can more easily be traced or at least blocked..
So it’s true. It’s Everything You Want in s Drugstore.
the senior was mentally compromised. nobody at any age should fall for that.
