People are always falling for scams. Especially the older community. It’s so sad. Buying untraceable apple gift cards is a red flag. Or any other kind of gift card. It’s very scary to see how trusting people are and give away their live savings. These scammers probably don’t even live in this country. They will get what they can and move on to the next victim. You can’t recover what you lost.Be smart and don’t give away what you worked so hard for.
