I thought it was time for an update. I have received a lot of feedback from those of you who have been scammed out of money by Giftah and I appreciate your support. Please post your feedback as comments so other potential Giftah customers can read them here!
In my previous post, I mentioned that I was going to file a police report. I have not done this. I did call the police (non-emergency line) and they advised that I should come down to the station and fill out a report, but it was not likely that I would receive my money back. I thought that to be honest, this would be a waste of my time considering the money I lost (perhaps Giftah was counting on this).
I did however file the complaint with the Better Business Bureau (BBB) and guess what...Giftah ignored the Better Business Bureau. So don't feel too bad when Giftah ignores your emails - they even ignore the Better Business Bureau!
Giftah is not an accredited business according to the BBB and due to several factors, the BBB has given them a grade of F! You can read about the BBB rating here:
