Gift Cards are Not secure
I received an Amazon gift card in the mail today. It was clearly brand new and store bought, when I went to add it to my amazon account, I found it has already been used.<br /><br />I called customer service and they confirmed that it had indeed already been used and that there is nothing they can do.<br /><br />Clearly this is an issue, unsuspecting people are buying gift cards that are easily peeled and used by others and then the peel sticker is replaced.<br /><br />The 'scratch or peel for claim code' is in the open window of the gift card and extremely easy to peel back.  Why?<br /><br />Clearly, this is an issue. Seems an easy fix with packaging to not provide easy access to the claim code.  People are losing their money on Amazon and unintended recipients.
