lol CD. not necessarily a scam deal but with my luck in this world it was for me. you put cash on a card and then have to register it and get you one mailed to with your name on it and you and use like a debit/credit card deal. easy enough right? not in my world.

pre-paid from the bank is safer in my thinking. I think they have green-dot at the store also.

I did read an article about scammers who photograph the pre-paid cards at the store. They then wait until the card is funded, by checking the website w/the card number. Then they use the card number to buy stuff online.

If you get a pre-paid card get one from a place that doesn't display them in an unsecured place i.e. make sure they're behind the counter.

when card isn't for you but for someone else, then somehow the card gets "registered" without either party having a clue how it happened; there is a problem. interesting what CD said about that scam, prob happened to me. fu*kers

you get a pre-paid visa or master card at your bank. I got a greendot way back when they first came out and they figured out a way to fee my money away.
