Hi everyone,

 

If you believe that you or someone you know was scammed into buying eBay Gift Cards, visit our gift card page to contact customer service and find additional information related to gift card scams.

 

Thank you.

eBay card scam

eBay is no way responsible for what you do. When you purchase a gift card on their site, and what Gary has in his comment, they have a page that tells about gift card scams. I would read below on what you should do

 

If you believe you are the target of a gift card scam, here's what you need to do:

  1. Contact eBay Customer Service immediately.
  2. Report the scam to the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) or, if you're outside the United States, you can report the scam to your local consumer protection agency or report it to econsumer.gov.
  3. Keep the eBay gift card itself and the receipt you received when you bought it. We'll need these as proof of purchase to verify that you bought the gift card.

Go to ebay.com/giftcardscams or FTC.gov/giftcards to learn more about gift card scams and how you can protect yourself against them.
