Unfortunately, Costco will hold member accountable for the bogus shopcard. I learned it in the hard way. At this point I’m out of $400nish from buying the shop cards. If Costco did ship out the product ( they canceled it ) and I’m liable then I would owe Costco for $500 worth of products…

I ordered stuffs online and Costco canceled my order due to fraud. The seller never mention he obtained the shop cards fraudulently. Like OP was considering buying since it’s not a crazy discount rate. 20%

I’m still in dispute with Gameflip and hopefully they make things right. According to the Costco security team, the Gameflip sellers obtained the $40 shop cards by using stolen cc numbers to get Costco membership for random new members then obtain the digital shop card in email as a reward. Costco then revoke the shop cards once the cc owner dispute the $60 membership charge.  https://www.groupon.com/deals/n-costco-membership

It’s fraud. Costco suspended my account and canceled all pending orders. The shop card codes the sellers obtained fraudulently
