I don't know, what about Apple Gift Cards? And what, for that matter, about Samsung smartphones? What exactly is a non sequitur?

I don't know, what about Apple Gift Cards? And what, for that matter, about Samsung smartphones? What exactly is a non sequitur?
- khedoros1 9y agoIt's not a non sequitur; iTunes gift cards are also common instruments for scammers. They're also used legitimately, just like WU transfers are. The comparison is clear.
- revelation 9y agoAnd yet, somehow, that is not the point I'm making. You can bring up something without having to raise the entirety of trivia that may also fit that pattern, you know? So it's a non sequitur because obviously this is a thread on WesternUnion and they're bringing up Apple gift cards. It's like, cool, discuss that over there if you wish to.
- khedoros1 9y agoI see your point about WU being famously used for fraud. The point of bringing up Apple gift cards is to provide a counter-argument that WU's services aren't inherently bad, even when some of the uses they're put to are. They enable fraud, but only as an incidental consequence of providing services to the disenfranchised that no one else is.
