Is Jerry Cards Legit?

Alright, so we pretty much all know that if you wanna download music, movies, apps, books, podcasts - whatever, that the best place to go to is the US iTunes store. But for users, like me, who don't happen to live in the US, we're pretty much left in the dust when all the new stuff comes out. For instructions on how to set up a US account, you might wanna visit here:

I was able to make one after a little bit of struggling here and there, but you should be okay. I must've overlooked some things. Well that might be okay if you wanna just download free stuff from the iTunes Store but So off to the payment part of things.

The problem with leaving your credit card details or even setting your payment method as Paypal, is that it is seriously unsafe. Remember all those reports about people getting their iTunes accounts hacked and people spending hundreds of dollars? And even if you are willing to use your credit card or your Paypal, you'd better make sure that they were issued in the US. So, the solution? iTunes Store Gift cards. US iTunes Store Gift cards, that is.So if a thief were to get access to your account, they could only use up a set amount and nothing more.

So I actually found myself looking around for legitimate sites that would send the codes behind the scratchy bits of those cards via e-mail, 'cause snail mail would be much to slow, expensive and unjustifiable. This brought me to Jerry Cards (which, strangely enough has two links that direct to the same site). I also came across another site, but I shall review that later.

I read a handful of testimonials that said how fast the shipping was and I even checked out the Facebook page, where Jerry gives out free iTunes cards   occasionally. A lot of fans and lots of ways to contact Jerry - MSN, Skype, Twitter - you name it. So I decided to dive in, myself (and for anyone else wondering how this thing works, of course).

Now I have a Paypal account so I used that to buy my iTunes gift card from Jerry Cards. But there's also a checkout option (where you can use your credit card) and you can even pay by Western Union. Dude's got this thing down. Anyway, so I clicked "Buy" and clicked on the Paypal button and entered in my e-mail and password for my account when I was prompted. Wondering where this would lead me, I got this verification:



Okay, cool. So I went over to mailbox - which then told me to click on a link to finish the transaction. Well, actually, I received two e-mails with the same link. So I did what every normal person would do and clicked on both.



And somehow I ended here:


Wow. Jerry must be making more than a little profit if he can offer free cards. But still, it's reassuring that you can grab yourself a freebie if you spread the good word about Jerry Cards. You win, I win. Well, actually, this little piece itself is an ode to instruction number 1. I'm writing this as sincere as I can. So. 10 minutes. Really?

Well, let's take a look then. What? I've got mail! And it hasn't even been 10 minutes yet! I would've been impressed if it came within a 24-hour window. But whaddya know, someone's early. And it's from Jerry Cards, too.

Click. Image link. Here was what was at the other end:


Alright - where's the code guys? I was expecting a scan of the whole card. Greedy, old me. As long as this code works, I'm not too fussy. Let's give it a spin:






And…success! So, the code works. Hoorah. And here, I was getting all worried about nothing. So, yes. I'd say Jerry Cards is legit. And now I've got ten bucks to spend at the US store. Let's go shopping. I mean, time for me to go shopping.


Go get your own card! This is mine! (Yes, Mr. Bean styles). Links below!

    3. Hello?

      Jerry, I sent you a friend request with my message yesterday. You accepted and replied saying that you received my message with order details. However, you then proceeded to un-friend request me, block me on Facebook, and then deleted our conversation.

      I ordered a $15 iTunes code through your website. I noticed that my Paypal account was deducted by the payment that I made to you, yet I did not receive any email at all of the code. Where are the items that I paid for? You guaranteed a fulfillment of the order within a few hours at most. Yet nothing has been done to complement such a guarantee.

      I will give you 1 week to either respond to me with the items that I paid for (the $15 iTunes code) or supply a full refund to my Paypal account. Otherwise, I will be accusing you of a scam, and legal consequences and many complaints on every review website regarding your business will follow.

      Best,

      -Cethad

    4. Jerry Gift card is a big scam and fraud ( JERRYCARDS.COM-JERRYCARDS.COM@GMAIL.COM +18043497559 ) THAT IS THE FULL DETAILS OF HIS OPERATION) First he charge over the amount of a normal giftcard and never give you what you paid for. After payment he ask for some sort of verification via Fb,twiter,linkedin,viber,whatsapp. Even if you provide any of his verification process that would be the last you hear from him. I purchased a giftcard for $10 which he charged $13.99 Made payment through my paypal and till this moment. Be blocked my number and i still havent recieved anything. I have open a dispute on him with Paypal and i hope he gets arrested and jailed for good. What a low life loser

    2. I also have been messaging Jerry all day through email, whatsapp, LinkedIn and Skype. He has taken my money $100 and I have a receipt from PayPal but my whatsapp message for verification hasn’t even been read. I have tried to call the number but straight through to voicemail. He is totally ignoring all messages. Seems like a scam to me.
