I honestly try my best not to laugh at some customers. But I just couldn't help it.
Guy comes up with two bags of chips. He's acting a little fishy, trying to avoid the camera. But whatever. He hands me his debit card, and says it been de magantized. No big deal. Just have to enter it manually.
Then I saw the card. I'm sure most of you who work with money, know about 'the scam' with gift cards, well, you can do it with debit and credit cards too.
To start out, the card had 10 numbers, 1 of which was upside down, and two letters. It was split into two groups of five, one that was much higher then the other. The name of the card was at the TOP of the card. No expiration date.
So I just laughed. Looking at him. "Where are the cameras at man?". (I had brief hope that he couldn't be that possibly stupid).
He just snorts, and tells me to hurry up please, his ride is waiting.
Then I sighed. "Wow man.... wow... I'm impressed!" I say holding his card.
At this point his eyes light up. "Huh...??"
"A blind ape, with no arms, using his teeth, while having sieziures, could do much better job then this!" I say putting the card back on the counter.
The man is still confused. "The other store took it like that... you just have to put the numbers in..."
"... No" I say laughing. He then leaves, looking confused.
Granted, I should have kept it, which is what we're suppose to do.
But, and I hate the fact I'm saying this, but if any clerk not only falls for it, but could somehow put that crap of numbers in, and make it work, well.. yay I guess.
