Retired couple loses $2,000 in Spectrum-Target discount scheme

[@theotheleo6830]

So, after giving the scammers the 5th gift card, did they finally get the hint that they were being scammed, or did the scammers feel sorry for them and stopped asking for more?

This doesn't sound convincing at all, like what would Spectrum need Target Gift Cards to go on a shopping spree? 😂

[@joepeckjr.8133]

Just wow!!! I guess some people you just can’t reach. Hard to believe anyone could fall for such a blatantly obvious scam???

[@kingtryton]

And to actually admit to being conned out of $2000 is even worst

[@ronibluerey7654]

It’s easy to pass judgment, but unfortunately everybody didn’t get the memo.

Stupid is, Stupid does

especially after the first card was no good, I would have grabbed it back and went back to the service desk and say what is wrong with this card.

[@christheflex3184]

I agree

[@ronibluerey7654]

That’s not fair.

[@syntecsmurf]

WHO TF still falls for gift card payment scams????????????

[@Juke582]

How could anyone fall for that??? It’s like you paid for 20 years of that service so how was it a discount? Duh 🙄

[@iammedusa2600]

If it's too good to be true.........GIFT CARDS! Sorry, but this is laughable.

[@mkfishing4458]
