I believe I've fallen for another scam. I have sent in $100. Of gas receipts per month since Sept.'08.in return, I am supposed to receive a $25.gift card per month to be used at the gas station that I chose with my initial registration.in the beginning, all when fine. I received 2 gift cards that I redeemed. Since that time, I have continued to mail in my $100. Worth of gas receipts and have received 3 more cards (from BBZ Resource Management). They were Visa debit cards with a pin code. However, when I go to use them, they are declined.
What is worse about this whole deal... I am a retailer, giving these promotion cards out to my "loyal" customers for their purchases from my business in the past 4 months as an incentive. Now, I will have to eat crow and start explaining to them what has happened. I, somehow, will have to make this up to them, out of my own pocket.
I have about 13 promotion cards left for the gas deal, which I paid $11 a piece for. So again, I'm out $150 dollars. Also, the dealer that sold me the promotion cards wanted me to sign up for another "retailer promotion package" for Free Groceries. Thank goodness, I did not fall for that scam.
Where is the world headed? Sad to say, now I'm suspicious of every deal that comes along!!!
