Mary Roach in CircleID: Gift Card Scams in Social Networks
“While gift card scams themselves have been around for years, what is new here is that they are being delivered through new channels. In the early days of the Internet, consumers would typically come across these scams via spam email or web advertisements. With the advent of Web 2.0, these gift card scams are now showing up on popular B2C marketplaces—such as Craigslist and eBay—as well as social media sites, including Facebook and Twitter.”
