Chinese Organized Crime Now Targeting Gift Cards in U.S.
- PaulHoule 2y agoGift cards are so much trouble. If I ran the world I'd ban them. (My sister-in-law bought a Burger King gift card for my son. She didn't know that BK went out of business in my town. My son and my wife spent half of it when they were in Cortland. My son fucked up and I'm like "you better give me that gift card" and I had it in my pocket when I was at the Oculus in NYC and hadn't eaten anything since getting on the bus in Ithaca. There was a BK across the corner with a disgusting pall of smoke and grease and a Chopt across the street. The BK was packed and I anticipated more than a 30 minute wait -- hamburgers are not fast food. So I went to Chopt, got some better food instantly, and I still have $5 left on the gift card a year later)
