Target Sued In Two Class Actions Over Gift Card Scams
Scammers are big fans of gift cards because they are easy to purchase, easy to send to the scammer and impossible to trace. It is not even necessary for the scammer to be in possession of the actual gift card to use it. Sending the gift card numbers or taking a picture on your phone and transmitting it to the scammer is sufficient for the scammer to use the gift card to buy things that can then be sold and converted into cash. In many instances scammers pose as large companies or government agencies such as the IRS demanding payments. This is called an "imposter scam.' According to the FTC, in 2024 Americans lost $2.95 to imposter scams, second only to investment fraud. In 2021 the FTC noted that Target gift cards were the most popular choice for scammers with scammers asking specifically for Target gift cards in twice as many instances as the next most popular gift card and even when the gift card requested by the scammers was not a Target gift card, the scammers asked their victims to purchase the particular gift cards at a Target store. More recent data of the FTC indicates that Target gift cards were the second most popular gift card of scammers with Apple gift cards being most used by scammers. Recently four victims of the imposter scam sued Target seeking class action status alleging that Target failed to use its own security algorithms and real-time tracking software to prevent these scams. The plaintiffs further allege that Target benefited financially from gift card scams. Responding to the lawsuit a Target spokesperson said 'While we cannot comment on pending litigation, we take significant steps to combat this type of criminal activity and protect consumers.' One of the plaintiffs, Robert Reese received an email from a scammer posing as an Amazon customer service representative who convinced him he needed to send Amazon $10,800 in gift cards, instructing him to get $6,000 of that amount from Target through the purchase of twelve $500 gift cards. HOW TO AVOID GIFT CARD SCAMS Fortunately, scams requiring payment through gift cards are easy to avoid. Anytime anyone approaches you with a business transaction in which you are asked to pay through gift cards, you can be confident that it is a scam. The IRS even posts on its website that it does not accept gift cards as payments. An important thing to remember is that gift cards are gifts, they are not used as a payment method for any legitimate transaction so if you are asked to pay for any business transaction through a gift card, you can be sure it is a scam. Target has also been sued in a class action regarding gift card scams by customers from 21 states who bought Apple gift cards at Target that had been tampered with by scammers that resulted in the scammers emptying the gift cards of their value. The plaintiffs allege that Target is aware of this problem and has not done enough to stop it. This type of scam is called gift card draining. The most common way gift card draining occurs involves scammers going to racks of gift cards in stores and, using handheld scanners, read the code on the strip of the card and the number on the front. They then put the card back in the display and periodically check with the retailer by calling its 800 number to find out whether the card has been activated and what the balance is on the card. Once they have this information, they either create a counterfeit card using the information they have stolen or order merchandise online without having the actual card in hand. Another common way gift card draining occurs is when scammers place a sticker with the barcode of a gift card that the scammers possess over the actual barcode of the gift card in the rack. Thus, when the card is taken by the gift card purchaser to the checkout counter to have the card activated, the funds used to purchase the gift card are credited to the card of the scammer. It is not until the gift card purchaser tries to use his or her card that it is discovered that there are no funds credited to the card. Some retailers, to reduce gift card fraud put a PIN on the gift card so that if the card is used online, the user must have access to the PIN which is generally covered and must have the covering material scratched off in order to be visible. Unfortunately, many purchasers of gift cards are not aware of this, so they don't even notice that the PIN on the card that they are purchasing has already had covering material scratched off by the scammer who has recorded the PIN. HOW TO AVOID GIFT CARD DRAINING As with so many scams, the best place to look for a helping hand is at the end of your own arm. Always inspect the card carefully to make sure that the barcode has not been tampered with in any fashion and that the PIN is still covered and when buying a gift card, only purchase cards from behind the customer service desk. If the card is preloaded, always ask for the card to be scanned to show that it is still fully valued.

Health of US Consumer Is the Focus as Retailers Prepare Earnings
Wall Street will get a close look at how American consumers are faring in the early days of President Donald Trump's tariff regime when the biggest US retailers like Walmart Inc. and Target Corp. report earnings next week. Consumer spending accounts for roughly two-thirds of America's gross domestic product. Over the past few years, its resilience has also helped power the S&P 500 Index to record after record. And that appears to be continuing, with retail sales rising in July after posting upwardly revised gains in June.

Is Target the next Best Buy?
-- Target may be on the verge of its own turnaround story if Chief Executive Brian Cornell steps down in September and a new leader steps will be looking for a fresh strategy to reverse falling sales, restore customer appeal and compete more effectively with Walmart (NYSE:WMT) and Amazon (NASDAQ:AMZN). Target is losing market share in core categories, struggling in online business and there is a consumer perceptions that its prices are higher than rivals. These are similar to what Best Buy (NYSE:BBY) faced a decade ago when many thought it was headed for 'death by Amazon.' Best Buy's revival under Hubert Joly between 2012 and 2019 had electronics retailer refreshed its stores, invested in its staff, committed to price matching, improved its website, cut costs and closed weaker locations. Most importantly, Joly set a clear vision for the company's purpose and hired the right leaders to deliver it. For Target, a new management team could take similar steps. That could mean using more private-label goods to narrow the price gap with rivals, trimming expenses to fund price cuts, improving the online shopping experience to reduce profit losses, and rethinking its store footprint. A sharper focus on returns on invested capital could help guide decisions."A new management, especially one with an outside perspective, could be a positive catalyst," analyst at Bernstein said. The bigger question is whether Target should invest heavily in a Walmart-like e-commerce supply chain, which may not pay off without greater scale. Without that, online sales may continue to erode margins unless the company finds a new approach. Better economic conditions could give Target more breathing room, but the company still needs to stop losing market share before any turnaround can take hold. For now, the outcome remains uncertain.
