Walmart Gift Card Gift Card drained of balance Bentonville Arkansas
I was given a $500 Gift Card from my employer. I had used it once, at my local Walmart for approx $35. Approximately a week later, I needed to purchases wiper blades for my car. I was trying to order them from my app, where my Gift Card was stored, and it wouldn't accept the gift card as payment. I had a $0 balance. The night before my card was totally drained in 3 transactions.
I tried to get in touch with a live person, which was difficult to do, but finally got one. They saw that my card was used at a Sam's Club (which I didn't know you could do), and the entire balance was used up. When I did finally get a person on the phone, she was very nice. As of today, all I have received was an email.
My question is, how can these cards get stolen so quickly? I scratched off the last four digits of the card along with the pin. This is not secure. The entire card number needs to be covered. I am waiting to what Walmart is will to do for me.
