BBB in the News -- Out of Date Email on Gift Cards

  
In this story on CBS11-TV on November 24, 2008, the BBB warns not to believe everything you receive in your email. One email circulating now warns not to buy gift cards from listed stores because they are closing. But much of the information in the email is out of date or just inaccurate. Before passing on a questionable email, check it out at Urban Legends Reference Pages, www.snopes.com. If you are concerned about possible store closings, contact the store directly for information or consider alternatives such as pre-paid bank cards or mall gift cards.
