Cardforcoin's website is not a  scam.... I've used them yesterday and got my BITCOIN within 10 seconds..   

$40 amazon Gift Card https://blockchain.info/tx/2ad528bdb9736983d8300c40bf6dbee1fad6eb110d5fedb2a9cdfba597b66f34

Also plenty of users on Reddit.com use them.

We can't just send him a card really- that's not how the service works. It just temporarily loads a card to spend, then refunds the balance.

Since we already refunded him via Coinbase, we can't send him the refund to his bitcoin address as well- we need to be wary of scams too, and he could just claim the Coinbase wallet once we sent the btc to his address, doubling his refund.

Honestly, when people are unhappy we usually send a promo or a free coffee, but he spent all of yesterday telling us to fuck ourselves on Twitter :/

TLDR; We use Coinbase to send refunds via email and this guy doesn't understand. It's been sent, and waiting for him to claim it :/

I should have known it was to good to be true. After dicking with these people for a day they finally E-Mailed me some link and said there's your refund. Yeah right because I love clicking links from scammers and keeping my anti-virus software busy. Then they told me "oh well sign up for a coinbase account and they'll give you your refund. NOT, I wanted coffee at Starbucks not an account at a stupid payment processor which doesn't have a much better reputation then these scammers.

Do NOT use www.CoinForCoffee.co you will NOT get any coffee and you will NOT be refunded your BTC. And beware of their owners CardForCoin, while I didn't use their service my experience with their other "offering" leads me to believe they are just as bad.

Bottom line, if it seems to good to be true it is.
