"" Fraud via Direct TV""
July 28, 2018
Beware!! There is a phone scam going on. You will receive a phone call from DIRECT TV stating that you will receive a very low monthly charge for your Direct TV and internet service if you will pay 4 months in advance with an Amazon gift card ($240). This is a very sophisticated scam. If you ask to think about it and call them back later, you get the AT&T tone and recording just like the real thing. We fell for it so are out $240. AT&T/Direct TV has been of no help and in fact says they have no intention of notifying customers of this potential scam. Amazon fraud was very helpful and in fact tried to back track the gift card, but in the end could not trace the call (probably because of AT&Ts lack of help. Anyway, I thank Amazon for trying. Our big mistake, so remember, paying for a gift card and giving the cash out number to anyone that promises service is a no, no. We feel stupid, so be smart.

DONT USE THE TEXT MESSAGE OPTION!!!
December 18, 2017
I like the idea of the eGift cards, but when you choose the option of delivery through a text message, the recipient may not get it. Also, there is no way to cancel the order through your account portal...you have to contact someone at Amazon customer service who will then send you an email with a link that you have to go to.
I would not recommend an eGift card through a text message to anyone.

My son and his family live in New Zealand. IN 2016 I sent them an Amazon Gift Card for Christmas with no hassles or issues other than it's limited use. The point is, they got the card. I decided to do the same again this year so I followed the instructions and sent them a gift card for $250.00. Although nothing has changed in the past year the first time I tried sending, it failed to go through and be delivered. I should have realized then I might be better off to just wire them money but I use Amazon quite a bit for business and personal purchases and have always found service to be very good. Until now. The card shows as sent but my son called last night to advise me that nothing has been received. He has checked his e-mail, junk folders, etc and has found nothing. I am 100% certain there is a glitch somewhere, but I do believe that I'd just as soon cancel the order and get my money back if it cannot be delivered.

eGift card was not delivered as promise, took a follow up 3 weeks later to get this corrected.
