Re: Risks of buying Amazon.com gift cards / gift codes

Hi all,

On this forum I see daily transactions of people buying and selling Amazon.com gift cards and gift codes. What are the actual risks regarding buying these codes? Sure, I know the seller can keep the code after you sent you BTC, or he can send you a invalid code. However, I do also read replies over here that people are that these codes can be bought with hacked accounts and thus stolen money. Is that true?

Will it harm me if I use such "illegal codes"?



I'm asking this because I want to buy something on Amazon.com (to use for my work) but I'm short of some dollars because of the sending fee. As I don't own an American bank account neither a Credit Card, and I can't use PayPal or Bitcoin to pay at Amazon.com, I think buying these gift cards / gift codes is the only way for me to credit my balance.

I would like to hear your opinion about this. Thanks in advance!


Why don't you use purse.io. Will allow you to purchase cards safely and at a discount.
Try purse.io for amazon stuff + discounts

I've never heard over Purse.io untill now. Are you familiar with that website? Do they offer legit gift codes?

I will have a look later on, as I'm a weekend gone for work now. Thanks for your advice!
