Yes, and (in the US) money orders too, at USPS.
Then, USPS realised what was happening, and blocked them for purchase on credit cards.
The “manufactured spend” community (who cycle money through cards to get cashback/points without really spending money) then started buying prepaid debit cards & gift cards on credit, then buying money orders on gift cards, then depositing the money back in their bank.
That came to an end a couple of years ago when prepaid cards were also blocked: https://www.reddit.com/r/churning/comments/7ac5t9/doc_link_new_usps_memo_gift_cards_are_not/ https://www.reddit.com/r/churning/comments/7ac5t9/doc_link_n...
