They offered to also include several premium movie channels like HBO, Cinemax, Star, Showtime & American Hero for free. They required him to first go to Kroger, Wal-mart, or any retail store and buy 3 E-bay gift cards for $200 a piece ($600 total).Then he was told to call 888-879-1281 & give the numbers on the face of the gift cards to the rep on the phone. My father felt that this was odd and called me. We called the number he was given and I asked questions about this promotion. The rep wanted me to give him my telephone number and when I wouldn't he quickly and abruptly ended the call. I believe this was someone trying to make money from my father fraudulently.

Answered with a recording that asked to press a # for the dept. you wanted. Promotions was connected to me, Guy told me that I would get reduced monthly bills. I had to pay with eBay gift cards, because AT&T partner with them to promote the offer tha their gift cards. Sounded good. Gave me a list of the stores close to me that had eBay cards. Got $500 in ebay cards from Rouses, called the number got a different call center person. He said before he took the card numbers, he wanted to make sure that the channels were added. Turned on TV, Showtime had been added, so has additional channels. Said OK now he would take the numbers on the cards. Hung up. Later I got a text saying there was problem with eBay. He would reimburse these cards, get 3 larger denomination and call back. I should have stopped there,but got taken for another $480... Of course these numbers would not go into the system would send a check to reimburse, but would need more cards. NOW! the light finally dawned on me. SCAM.

But, they would only load a total of $500 on a gift card a day. So, after all of that nothing. Went home, DirecTV called asking why I had not activated the 2 gift cards. I told them the Post Office would not let me do that. And they said, "Go, back lie to them. Tell them it is for personal use!"
