"Free Gift Cards" — Scam Warnings
Be cautious with offers that promise free gift cards for completing surveys, downloading apps, or sharing codes. Many are phishing or balance‑draining schemes.
Red flags: requests for photos of the back of your card/code, urgency, fee to claim a "free" prize, or requests to "verify" balance via unfamiliar links.
Safe Alternatives
- Brand promotions on official websites or apps.
- Legitimate loyalty programs (read the terms; avoid sharing codes).
If you believe you’ve been targeted, stop contact, report the page/account, and contact your card issuer immediately.
