I’ve never seen one with warnings, but it really comes back to the way Bitcoin has no safeguards built in. Scammers love it because once they get someone to make a mistake, there’s no way to reverse it unlike a conventional bank or most other payment systems. Gift card fraud is riskier (they can be locked, someone has to physically move things around & risk being caught, conversion to real money incurs a fair loss, etc.) but it’s popular because it was the best option before cryptocurrency came along and offered a fully remote alternative.
