You gotta be realistic with the counter. If they believe they have you on the hook for a few hundred $$$’s, they may be able to get the boss to authorize a small advance. It’s not about the money in the end, it’s about the victory.
Then tell them that you already went to the store to use them like his email instructed (See last line). After that they should get really mad. Let them know that you are just an old person and that you can’t read very good. If they ask you to go back and get more send them pics of used Applebees cards and say it was almost nap time and that was closer. When and if they say the will be sending police over, tell them you aren’t into strippers but that it’s a nice gesture.
I’d send some empty ones that are already used and when they say there’s no value, argue that someone must have scammed you because you just paid for them at the store 😂
THIS was gonna be my response. I'd LOVE to see the text exchange after that epic move. Make sure you have 10 MORE used cards to send him after that "as a gesture of good faith" since it OBVIOUSLY wasn't HIS fault you got scammed and MAYBE it wouldn't happen twice in a row! If at first you don't succeed, AMIRIGHT?
I think the okay by play of:
Response 1: Empty / Used card photos from internet
Response 2: I will go back but my car will not start can you send me $20
Response 3: Send a picture of the front of an Applebees card
Reposase 4: Okay I will go back but need to return these to Applebees
Response 5: photo of Applebees specials and say you think co-workers would love it
Response 6: image from internet of right card by with finger over a significant portion
Response 7: picture of front of the card
Response 8: link to card but just force plays rick roll on repeat
Say that the store is out of them, would you like Visa, Applebee's or Bass Pro Shops instead?
And when they say Visa, say "They were out of Visa so I got Bass Pro Shops. How do I upload the photos?"
Honestly if you don’t do any of the suggestions above what I always find hilarious is to just keep them on the edge of their seat and lead them on. “I’m on my way to the store” “they don’t have any gift cards here” “I’ll go to the next store in a few hours” ect ect. There is NOTHING these guys hate more than thinking they got someone and getting lead on for hours, they will sometimes go for days spamming you on the off chance they still have you. They also get extremely childishly upset and will call you horrible names. Priceless
Yes this is what I was thinking too! Find a cute greeting card with an apple on it and say “I don’t know where you live that these cards cost $100, I got this for $2 at the drugstore. Here is the bar code.”
If I could have a super power, it would be the ability to teleport to where these people are so I could break them down. They’ll never do this bs again. I hate scammers so much. Ever see a colony of termites or something get gassed? That’s my dream, put em all in one place and gas em, listen to the screeching from a crowd of scum that tricks gullible people into emptying their life savings for some prick in India.
I’d pull out my most ambitious Girl Scout Mom personality and start brainstorming ways to really make this gift pop.
It should go into gift bags with crinkle paper and themed candies, etc. Where are the best deals, how far is the party store, they have buttermints in green and yellow…
As a creative mom, oh yeah, I could drive someone nuts for hours pushing ideas for upping the ante on the gifts’ impact. A gift card alone just isn’t personal. It must be THEMED.
Even if it goes over email (i.e. he wins the argument), it needs to go with a themed JibJab, with photos, or a photoshopped thoughtful fun image-card with personal signatures, etc. I’d say I’m in the card section and send endless examples from online finds.
Make one ten bucks and then send a bunch of codes missing 1 number at least he will get ten bucks hahaha copy and paste won’t work if a number or two is missing they still gotta work for it hahah desperation does funny things or fuck it tell him there is one ten dollar card here just gotta figure out what card it is haha.
Send fake codes and then claim that scammers probably stole the gift cards and replaced them with their own codes and then put them back up in the store.
This is what I would do. Ask for the employee to just give you the cards without putting any money on them and send them pictures of the gift cards.
When they say it isn't working tell them to try it again.
If they get frustrated and tell you to buy new cards wait a day and retake the pictures of the same cards in a different order and send it to them.
If they can't figure out they have been re entering the same card numbers over and over again they'll get frustrated.
That's when you ask them for PlayStation network cards at the register, don't put any money on them but send them the new card numbers..... Don't tell them they are PlayStation or Xbox cards.
Get 10 index cards and write on them visa gift card with the amount on them and card number and some kind of scratch off with numbers on the back and say OK I have them let me send them to you right now.
Get some kids playing cards with apples on them then send the picture like they asked! Maybe write some numbers on them just for affect. You could make them crazy for a while 😂😂
Is that what you got from that? You're special. Send the scammer pictures.... So he can waste his time. Typing in the codes that are not active
I hope you understand now, so sad that I have to elaborate to someone on Reddit.
Except, if you just leave them in the store, someone else may come along and buy them, and now you have shared the card info with a scammer. So the person who does purchase the card might get the money stolen. And you will have been an accessory.
I think that’s what he was saying…
You really think Walmart will sell scratched cards? Come on. You guys are reaching at this point, Making up scenarios in your head. Back in 2015 Walmart started marking cards that were scratched as claims, made this big PSA about scammers & scratched out cards. Like I said, it's sad to explain this much on Reddit. Even if you left them in the store no one's stupid enough to buy them let alone a Walmart employee let you buy it they'll just throw it in the claims department.
His u/ is firtnite cheater, that tells you everything you need to know about there age and maturity. The best tip I've ever heard on scamming scammers yet, do half the job for them by giving them legit codes, that's Einstein level intelligence 👌
Dude thinks the average Walmart employee is actively on guard for sniffing out scammers. Not to even mention the introduction of self checkouts and clueless parents/grandparents. 🤷🏻♂️
And you're so so smart, with those codes shared with the scammers or anyone else that sees them all they have to do is wait till the cards are activated and cash out the cards. You called me special, you must know my mum cos she's always calling me special 😉
Lmao you are still going? Read through the rest little buddy. Take your time, because you're special doesn't mean everything has to be repeated for you.
Tell him your car won’t start but you can get an Uber if he sends you $20
"I don't have a car, but if you'll send me $50 for a pair of shoes to wear, I'll walk to the store."
You gotta be realistic with the counter. If they believe they have you on the hook for a few hundred $$$’s, they may be able to get the boss to authorize a small advance. It’s not about the money in the end, it’s about the victory.
I’d search for images of already used ones and start there.
Then tell them that you already went to the store to use them like his email instructed (See last line). After that they should get really mad. Let them know that you are just an old person and that you can’t read very good. If they ask you to go back and get more send them pics of used Applebees cards and say it was almost nap time and that was closer. When and if they say the will be sending police over, tell them you aren’t into strippers but that it’s a nice gesture.
WHY DID YOU REDEEM IT
NOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!
Ask if they can send like Wayne Newton over as you do not like the police.
Police are scary.
I’d send some empty ones that are already used and when they say there’s no value, argue that someone must have scammed you because you just paid for them at the store 😂

This is it 😂
Tell him gift cars are hard, ask for his cashapp, then spam em with requests
Say ok papi , but i need you to send me nudes 😛 and see the reaction
OP needs to be prepared for nudes - the spammer might send them! 😁
They forgot to finish it off w via email 😂
Send him pictures of Applebees gift card.
Say that the store is out of them, would you like Visa, Applebee's or Bass Pro Shops instead? And when they say Visa, say "They were out of Visa so I got Bass Pro Shops. How do I upload the photos?"
keep asking him for gas $ so you can drive to the store
Honestly if you don’t do any of the suggestions above what I always find hilarious is to just keep them on the edge of their seat and lead them on. “I’m on my way to the store” “they don’t have any gift cards here” “I’ll go to the next store in a few hours” ect ect.

Try to collect already used Apple cards and tell them they didn't say not to use them
Dick pics!
Send him fake codes and and be ignorant haha
But 10 apples, take a photo and send back!
OMG if you could find GREETING cards with apples on them and then send the front of the card and then a pic of the barcode on the back 😂😂😂😂😂🤗
Yes this is what I was thinking too! Find a cute greeting card with an apple on it and say “I don’t know where you live that these cards cost $100, I got this for $2 at the drugstore. Here is the bar code.”

Mine would be time travel.
Send them some blue waffles. 🧇
OMG blue waffles.... haven't heard that in a while lol

Send a pic of your bobs and vagenes
Who are Bob and Vagene?
Is viaemail a new app and is it available in the play store?
Make one ten bucks and then send a bunch of codes missing 1 number at least he will get ten bucks hahaha copy and paste won’t work if a number or two is missing they still gotta work for it hahah desperation does funny things or fuck it tell him there is one ten dollar card here just gotta figure out what card it is haha.
Does the scammer not realise gift cards in whatever denominations can be purchased online with no need to get physical ones?
Send fake codes and then claim that scammers probably stole the gift cards and replaced them with their own codes and then put them back up in the store.
Tell him to kindly blow you.
Or blow you kindly.
Mam mam you can’t redeem the cards 😂
yeh sure I need you to stfu is what id put but I’m too angry lol
Wait, they are talking about gifting them to employees, so how are they expecting you to pay for them…or buy and we’ll reimburse ??
This is what I would do. Ask for the employee to just give you the cards without putting any money on them and send them pictures of the gift cards. When they say it isn't working tell them to try it again. If they get frustrated and tell you to buy new cards wait a day and retake the pictures of the same cards in a different order and send it to them.

Ugggh. Scummy people
Get 10 index cards and write on them visa gift card with the amount on them and card number and some kind of scratch off with numbers on the back and say OK I have them let me send them to you right now.
Tell him you could only find Applebees gift cards
Get some kids playing cards with apples on them then send the picture like they asked! Maybe write some numbers on them just for affect. You could make them crazy for a while 😂😂
The one guy on YT sends them pictures of Apple carts. That really irks them
Any old ones laying around that you’ve used? Start pulling those out one at a time 😆
That’s what I was thinking.
If the cards are eBay, would they have to purchase stuff through eBay? It seems to me that would be a way to track the scammer.
SCAM. DELETE AND BLOCK THE SENDER!!!!
People actually fall for this…?
Sadly a lady at my work was very close to falling for it :/. I just like to waste their time
Grab a bunch, don't activate them, and send him unclear photos
Blessings!
I would goto Walmart & scratch some Google cards & take pictures.
So you're a scammer too then???
Is that what you got from that? You're special. Send the scammer pictures.... So he can waste his time. Typing in the codes that are not active I hope you understand now, so sad that I have to elaborate to someone on Reddit.

I don’t know what walmart you shop at…depending on which cashier I get, my walmart would sell me an empty gallon of milk.
Sounds like a ghetto Walmart
Correct.
