Ran into a situation at my local pharmacy today. An elderly lady in front of me at the cashier, 70-ish perhaps, purchased 3 gift cards, cash, $250 each, to a sporting goods chain which which doesn't even have a local store.

She then tried to put $500 in cash on a prepaid debit card. The manager was called to the front, and wouldn't let her. "Against store policy" was the manager's response. I really wanted to say something. This is a typical fraud on seniors. Maybe I should have spoken up?
