Buying, Selling, and Swapping Gift Cards

If you have gift cards that you can’t use, then perhaps you might want to sell or swap your cards. This article from PC Magazine: https://www.pcmag.com/how-to/how-to-buy-sell-and-swap-gift-cards

Gift Cards and Scammers

Scammers are phoning people to purchase gift cards for such purposes as paying debts, keeping benefits and utilities, paying for bail, avoiding deportation, etc. Anyone who demands payment by gift card is always a scammer, so hang up and report the scam to the card issuer, the police, and the Federal Trade Commission:
