Gift Card

I was approached by the mall, where I have my shop, for them to sell my gift cards at the main information booth for more exposure. Is this even a possibility?

Hi atMerchant,

 

Don't think that's a good idea - note: you get an email from someone that wants to help you.   Perhaps some additional research may be needed.  Since you have to load the funds to gift card in the first place, where is the money  coming from and how is someone else going to sell that card for you ??  Best to avoid this altogether.

This is not some stranger. My shop is in the local mall and the owner is giving us the opportunity for more exposure by offering to sell our gift cards at the main information booth. You know, much like grocery stores and such, sell gift cards for multitude of restaurants, fast food, gaming, etc... 

 

And of course, I do not want to be providing him with live physically loaded cards. That is why I ask if this is even possible. 

 

Thank you for the warning thinking it could be a scam. But that is not even remotely the situation here. Scamming is most something I'm aware of almost constantly. I run a networking group of 20k+ members which we need to monitor for scammers daily. So sad. But unfortunately today's reality.

 

Best Wishes!! Thanks for you input.
