Case synopsis of a Transnational Gift Card Scam laundering $26 million in fraudulently obtained gift cards through major retailers across the United States. Suspects were targeting victims with multiple different scams (Grandparent Scam, Arrest Warrant Scam, Apple Scam, Norton Anti-virus Scam, Publishers Clearing House Scams, and more). Victims were told to purchase Walmart and Target gift cards and provide the card information over the phone to the Scammers.
