Karen uses a credit card scam to get over $2,000 worth of gift cards.

She commits serious fraud, and even when she's found out, she keeps pushing.

Here's what happened.

I work at a 200-ish Roomboti hotel in a small, very wealthy town.

We do not have a no-locals policy, however.

Our do not rent list is made up of mainly entitled locals who just don't know when to

talk.

I have a feeling this local coming in today might just be the newest addition to that list.

The last time this guest was in, we'll call her Sally.

She brought her mother and had a pretty good time.

This was just before New Year's.

She did pull the Karen card a bit, but nothing too bad.

She has a history of making complaints to get things for free.

As she was checking out, she inquired about purchasing gift certificates so that she and

her mother could partake in a little self-care throughout the year and use the gift cards

to pay for everything.

A total of $2,400 in gift cards were purchased.

In her mind, buying the gift card right then was her way of holding herself to her New

Year's resolution of being a giant pain in the butt.

Fast forward a couple of days and accounting is emailing, asking about the charge because

the bank called and said that the owner of the card is claiming fraud.
