JB regularly has coupon/gift card promos where you buy a coffee machine for $2k+ and you get a $200 or $250 gift card to use.
Realistically since gift cards aren't tracked once they're activated, what's stopping me from buying a coffee machine, getting my gift card activated etc, then returning the coffee machine not long after/at a different store, keeping the gift card, then repeating the process?
don't you have to register the machine
I know you’re trying to make a fortune so you can retire , but this is wrong in every way !
It will bite you on the arse , I’m sure .
Fraud. Or usually there a clause that you have to return the bonus you got
Do you get the gc straight away or after some period? That period may be after the return period is over
I know for a fact that they link every bonus GC receipt with the respective sale receipt, even when you don’t see it as a customer, it’s kept on their back end. So don’t even try it unless you want to lose face.
even if the GC claim is with third party?
Well you’re welcome to try it and let us know, but any GC issued should have some trails of some sort.
if it works, why would I reveal it?
@askbargain: Lmao if it works then you would just try it yourself without asking in a public forum like this, like the intelligent OP.
Shouldn’t have said that and let them try it heh
How are you going to return it? I didn't think jb does change of mind returns. Even if they did allow returns you'd have to do quite a few to make it worthwhile and then they'd likely notice.
Double down..sell the GC on the classified forum. Should make for some interesting gift card scam posts 🤔
Triple down. Advertise the GC on classified forum here but don't actually send it and scam people here as well. What's a little fraud here, a little fraud there after all if you have no morals.
Wow..endless possibilities
Resell the blacklisted card multiple times and save on postage too 👍
Bundle multiple subprime GCs together & then bulk sell as diversified AAA 🙂
Have fun being blacklisted from JB and potentially other stores lol. Even if you get away with it a few times, trust me they know and are tracking you even if you think you're slick paying with cash
I was given a gift with the receipt in case it wasn't suitable, purchased from JB, I took it back and they asked about the giftcard which I didn't know about, they gave me a refund minus the value of the giftcard.
Morality ?
