Spammers
More spamming rants!
This time it was my aunt that was spammed. I went with her last year to buy an apple computer and printer. She also bought a warrantee and tech support.
We (I) took to back after a month. Now it's been a year. She called me up to take her grocery shopping. As soon as we got into the store - she "ran" right to the gift card section. I thought it was weird, but until I saw her grab $500 worth of google play cards I didn't say anything. When she took them to the cashier I questioned her. She said the man that was "fixing" her computer needed to be paid with google play cards. I told her she was being scammed. She assured me she was not - that is how you pay to get your computer fixed.
I told my auntie that ANY company would take a credit card, they didn't need google play cards. She wouldn't listen.
Any trip to the store with her is 3 hours. After the google play card purchase we started in the produce. I called my oldest son to ask him what to do - he was sick. He said the same thing as me - she was being spammed.
My son told me to take her to the police station when we were done shopping. I didn't do it, but I probably should have.
Please don't take a chance - if you can't pay with your credit card - you're getting SPAMMED!
