So my general belief is that anyone asking for non-cash payment or not accepting cash is a scam. But I had a provider ask me to get an eBay gift card and then give it as payment in person. This one stumped me because I’m not sure how that would be a scan as I still have to meet the provider to deliver. Says she only does it for the first meeting. Anyone else experience this and was it legit or just another way to scam?
Had this happen to me awhile back.
At that time, it was an Apple gift card.
Pic of receipt, etc.
(I dont think the actual card info was there in the receipt, not sure)
THEN asked for pic of front and back of card.
Lol!
I didnt even have an Apple product.
Ultimately gifted the card to someone on some occasion ... mind officially blown when the other realized the worth of the card ... leading to a brief dalliance of sorts ... unexpected fun!
So, yea, no card ... unless you have an Ebay account, etc.
Cash only and always.
