According to DOC, a large number of Metabank Visa gift cards have recently been hit by fraudulent charges, with balances drained to zero. Many of these cards were issued through the Myprepaidcenter.com platform, where cardholder information can be modified, raising suspicion that the site may have been compromised. This site is also commonly used to deliver Visa gift cards redeemed through Swagbucks. If you have a similar card, it may be a good idea to use it right away rather than hold onto it. For example, you could simply use it to buy an Amazon gift card.
