    Service & Engagement Scammers

    I've seen the K1 Cash Card scam, the classic buying $200 Visa cards with a stolen check/no physical ID, and I know about scalpers bringing other people in to bypass purchase limits (usually with Apple products in electronics) - what are some other things to keep an eye out for?

However, if they buy it at another store, how would we know if that was true or not. Obviously we don’t want to assume that the guest is pulling one over on us, but...

    I had a couple in today at GS trying to return a couple high-value electronic items, close to $1,000.00. They had a receipt from a store from yesterday about 2 hours away.
