- Опубліковано 6 лют 2025
- Those who use SNAP benefits often depend on the program for buying food, but some are finding out that it's possible for their funds to be stolen, with no opportunity for reimbursement.

So let's not go after the person stealing it. Just funny how no one cares about the criminal anymore let's bash the victim. What kind world do we live in anymore
A Trump one. Get with the program. You are ON YOUR OWN. I voted for the prosecutor over the felon.
Karma for double standards.
@@sherrieludwig508The prosecutors a criminals also the way it looks.
The new amerikkka I thank God I don't have kids because its gonna get ugly as hell out here.
Seems like a lot of shady things are being learnt from Ohio and then they scatter around the US. I don't know if the Ohio police force is behind it, but with so many scams going around I can't help but to think they are just sitting around twiddling their thumbs hoping someone comes to their rescue!
This problem reeks of an inside job! People who know the system, how to obtain the card numbers and pins and have the people in place to sell that information to. I'm betting if the internal investigations were to start, they would find the culprits!
That's my thought as well.
Agree
I've read ppl who work for Job and Family Services have been caught stealing! Your correct.
I was thinking the same thing 😮😮😮😮😮
Correct! Same inside fraud is done at IHG, Doordash & Spark and walmarts Murphy usa gas station. They will not do anything about it!
Just me but this sounds like an INSIDE JOB! WHO KNOWS how to add & remove stamp benefits? 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔
Yep
Definitely because it’s happening everywhere, first I heard of it was in VA
Happening in Georgia too. Its crazy.
Exactly
I have been saying that too
The wages aren't enough for lower income families due to outrageous housing costs .These ppl need food.Stop assuming ppl don't work.
Bla bla bla get two jobs then lazy
Right
So it’s everyone else’s problem? Nope

Might be better to look at how and why these benefits are being stolen and take steps to stop it
Yeah. Put a chip in the cards.
Exactly, you nailed the blue print. Ohio state is in a scam crisis and I haven't heard anything about the police force cracking down on criminals. Ugly.
There’s regular day people with YT channels, who do nothing but expose scammers. If the Government doesn’t have people that smart-hire the regular guys!!!
Why not send them out a new card, and tell them not to order anything online like Walmart etc, for pickup. Go into the store and swipe the card. If it’s stolen again you know what store was involved and then the employees can be identified.
@@adamw7290the old fs cards had chips in them and then the ones they updated to after that didn’t … sounds fishy to me 🤷🏽♀️
With rent so much people can be working but still need help for food
Worthless people need help
Explain to those of us who pay for it why you think you should entitled to what someone else earns
@dcg590 You and others like you should be on the front lines fighting for lower rent and less price gouging across the board, so that everyone else can afford to live like you can. Then "taxpayers dollars" wouldn't be needed for this.

@@channah6498 maybe you should stand up and fight your own battles. You want someone else to pay, and now you want them to fight for you.
You guys are missing the point: Some outside hacker/tech thief is stealing the money from the accounts, same as if someone got your debit card data and cleaned out its balance.
These people's incomes aren't the topic of the video. If I was going to warrant a guess the 20 yr old is probably in college and either has a too-full course load to work, or if he does work he might only be earning a $7.50/hour minimum wage. The older guy perhaps has a disability or got seasonal laid off from a mill or construction job. Some middle aged people need to go back to school to upgrade their skills to compete for jobs. I see people doing it all the time while parenting school kids and juggling a crap job AND their own schooling. Sometimes they need help for a few months until they get their situations fixed. Anyone can be in their situation, you never know.
Well said.
About two months ago they arrested a mother and daughter for stealing people's snap. The mother actually worked for the snap government program. It happened in Rhode Island.
Damn that's dirty
👏🏽Thank you because these comments are crazy
Idc if they have a crap job. Explain to me why that’s everyone else’s problem. If you’re an able bodied adult, pay for your own things. So sick of the entitlement in this country.
You cannot tell by looking at someone if they have physical or mental disabilities.
Or if they're just lazy. Works both ways.😮
@JohnLee-ud2gm So much easier to blame the disabled and ill for US problems and not billionaires who pay less tax than average person, right?
Right!
Fake disabilities.
I remember a time in America, where people didn’t wear their disability as a badge of honor and play the victim card. They didn’t want to live off the government (which is funded by other people’s hard work) We should really get back to those times.
My husband is a paraplegic and he has worked for 30 years, which is given him a fulfilling life, and he has contributed to society. Many times people just use their disabilities as an excuse to get out of work or they don’t want to put in the effort to try to better themselves and work around their disability. Other times people really need government assistance. Those are the people who should be getting government assistance. Not to mention the country is $36 trillion in debt at the federal level. That doesn’t even include the states. Americans need to start stepping up, stop being lazy and driving around to shopping centers all day. Additionally, those who do work should put money into savings when they start working, instead of spending it on frivolous things.
1/3 of our population is living off of taxpayers. This isn’t sustainable.
Robbing from the poor and giving to the rich.
Welcome to America
As if the rich need you. Stop parroting what you hear on cnn.
Why do people call this place America?
Probably hackers
No one said these people don't work. With the way things are you still need stamps to eat even if you're working.
Get three job's then DUH
I’m a disable veteran that has multiple discs in my back that need replaced and I’m not eligible for food stamps. Oh, and by the way, when I went to college and took student loans out, I work two jobs to pay my student loans off.
@bljn316 Okay?
@@jameslockerbredxyidvId Right. Just go to your local job shop and pick up a few jobs.
My 18 yr old granddaughter works to jobs. She pays her bills. Why is a 19 yr old NOT Working. Get a job or 2!
Check the employees that issue these SNAP accounts.
Probably a bunch of illegal aliens or workers scamming.
lots of that happens
They need to take it back to paper books. Certified mail signature required for the book. The Ohio welfare department can never get it right.
This is happening across the country not just in ohio
Lots of things need to go back to paper
They are stealing out of people's mailboxs to so they probably wouldn't be a good idea then we have the postal works that are stealing from peoples in different countries, states, cities
In Springfield,Their eating the dogs,their eating the cats,their eating the pets!! That statement became true for ONE, AMERICAN,WHITE, HOMELESS MAN!! Your president is a IDIOT!!
I don't even live in Ohio and I'm constantly getting bombarded with scams that came from Ohio. Ohio seems to be a breeding ground for criminals and then they branch out. It makes me think that the whole police force over there are just sitting on their hands and thumbs waiting around for someone to save them. The whole state is in a crisis and no one is helping anyone.
People commenting on these people getting benefits. You don’t know their situation. Stop judging
Its shameful. So many delight at the plight of others. Hungry is hungry
No. The evidence has been posted for decades.
Go.Away!!!!!
Thank you🎉
I do know some of these folks and they are cheating our system to the max.
I"m happy for people that can get stamps. With the rent, mortgage hike, Entergy and water bill, I can't afford food and I work! I get $23 dollars in foodstamps! I'm also at stage 3 kidney failure.
These ignorant comments are why the hackers get away....victim blaming instead of going after the criminal
they aren't going after the thieves are they.. ?

most people on snap do work
@@LH-hh4rrYep and in some states, you have to have a job in order to get Snap.
Most people on SNAP do work.
People NEED the extra just to GET SOMETHING TO EAT! And they ARE WORKING
@@williegrant3054if people are working and can’t afford to eat, they should rent a room instead of an apartment or live with parents.
In Ohio minimum wage is $10 and if you have a job -it’s $1733/months. Rents of an apartment $700-800/months- get roommates.
That’s why national debt is skyrocketing- you can’t feed 90% of people
It seems reasonable to assume someone working within the food stamp program is stealing these stamps. You must swipe the card and use a pin to access them so what's happening? If not a skimmer, then it's a employee within the program.
Yep! My thoughts as well
They should look internally. I worked at a very large county agency where a specific department was formed in the 1970’s to investigate welfare fraud by county employees. They were backlogged in their investigations 5 years at that point and it was 1982! Employees robbing from the hands that fed them. Pathetic.
So from what i understand you have to have the card with you if the card does not swipe so workers are not checking cards and not making sure that the customer have them.
Some did get caught, it was on the news last yr, I forget what state
Had them on camera buying hella groceries too
I see a lot of comments about why aren't these people working??? Well just so you know all able bodied people have to work in Ohio to get food stamps. If you don't work you are denied any food stamps.
Well, if one job isn't enough then get another one. That's what I did when my one job wasn't paying the bills. I had to go out and get another job.
Furthermore, there is a feature to lock your card.
This isnt new folks, protect your shit, its up to you, NOT the Gubment.
And how many kids have they popped out to be that desperate?
Not in California
@@cindyabraham5503 Then if you make enough money, they take your food money away. I can't even get a remote work job, without having to seriously decide if taking a hit to our food budget is gonna be worth it.
About time they clean up the snap system. People have been ripping it off for decades.
Yes, well,this news article is all about the Feds nolomger investigating. Quite the opposite of cleaning up the SNAP system.
Bull crap! You wouldn't believe the paperwork you need! Birth certificate, utility bills, tax papers, car registration and a list of all property you own! Plus, 98% of people on Snap are the elderly and children. You're deplorable and profoundly ignorant.
MOST people desperately need the assistance. MOST people are honest. maybe you'll be happy when starving children are on the streets- just Like England during the time of Charles Dickens.

All the judgement for utilizing a benefit that the people met the requirements for is horrendous. Eating should be a basic right. It's wrong that our elders don't have sufficient food AND it's wrong that young people don't either.
Personal responsibility is a basic right also. We know how people qualify. I have a basic right not to have to fund other people decisions?

She went from being youthful, vibrant and energetic to a shell of herself. Nobody could have EVER predicted such a thing would happen. For the past two years she hasn't been able to work. She started receiving food stamps this year and her benefits were stolen.
The money she is getting is from the taxes our family has paid into the system!!!
Take care of our people.
People sell them when they have kids to support there habits something has to be done
They also have their buddy go use their card somewhere else while they go to another town so they can claim they were stolen. Oh look it wasn't me, I've got a receipt showing I was in Walmart in another town when my snap card was used.
Not everyone ya moron
I see no indication that this young man is supporting dependent children nor in any way attempted to sell his EBT benefits.
With almost 27,000 people in Ohio alone filing reports of stolen EBT benefits, i doubt that there is wide scale scamming in the firm if trave.ing to another area/ state and having friends or family drain the card. Its pretty hard to follow within less than 1 hour of the benefits being issued too. It slunds like an electronic breach across state lines.
There and their - they're not the same.
They should go back to paper food stamps. Customers can pick them up at the post office with their ID.
They don't do that, because crappy people, would sell their stamps and the LINK card is treated as a credit card. 10 years ago they were paper stamps and it was easy for trailer trash to sell their stamps in exchange for drugs... which is a fallacy and a way to make the systems people look bad.
Most of us are like you. We just want the right to eat some damn food and not feel like a piece of shit because life got hard.
Is that so bad?
Yes, so tired of everyone getting ripped off all over the computer, dating, selling things, bank cards stolen, not receiving items paid for, every month getting notified some massive co was breached and i could be the next victim. The internet has been a winning atmosphere for criminals
Someone getting the food why can’t they track it down 🤔
As with credit card fraud, there has to be a way to trace where the fraud is originating. We know SNAP fraud is a well-oiled machine - we need forensics to locate points of scamming so the innocent don't suffer.

I can’t believe the cold hearted downright mean attitude folks have against someone on food stamps or welfare if they’re Americans what’s wrong with them having food stamps or welfare if they need it I work and make decent money. I don’t have any problem paying taxes to help people out. It’s what we’re supposed to do,,,sooner or later We’re all gonna need a little help folks today are creating a cold harsh way of life for others and themselves however they don’t realize it yet because they have a little bit when the day comes that they need help they’ll scream the loudest. Why should the wealthy and powerful be the only ones that get to spend our tax money what these poor folks are getting with welfare and food stamps is nothing compared to what Trump gave the wealthy and powerful in the form of tax breaks and what they’ll probably end up Stealing from the American public before they’re through in office. We are all our brothers keeper and it’s downright shameful to act otherwise.
Able bodies excluded!😮
Because there are plenty of corrupt people out there. Ask yourself why we have to provide free meals at school when the kids are getting SNAP? Free money at home, free food at schools.
How about more investigations at homes to see what’s going on? Poor kids aren’t really being taken care of. Food deserts because of crime. No healthy food to buy. It’s a disaster.
Right. It should be for a limited time only for able bodied people. Like 3 months worth while the prove they are trying to be gainfully employed. Never should EBT be a bottomless pit unless a person is disabled or old. He having children to get benefits has to go, too.
F.. these Americans we need to support illegal border crossers...rent their houses.give them free phones.&monthly debit cards..
@@SusanHafferkamp You missed the point.
So, kids should starve?
Autistic people should starve?

Ya know, what I think is fair? EBT is limited only to food and not to alcohol, but there's not a limit because we deserve dignity. There was a year where I planned my stamp spending to make myself a decent birthday dinner, the year after I had to decide if I wanted to afford my medication or eat.

I have worked full time for slightly above minimum wage i needed food stamps to help provide what my employer doesn't inflation has made things very difficult what to buy & not buy however without a significant other also bringing money in i need food stamps 36 hours a week don't pay for everything i also had my left hip replaced medical bills were impossible for me to afford even on a payment plan the lowest deductible was $3,000 something $1,350 earned - rent $1,100 food -$320 a month lets say i move in with room mates make rent $700 vehicle insurance $150-$489 young males like that 20 year old minimum coverage is likely $200 people seem to have no shame in go fund me's however when its for food why be so hateful towards people who really need food assistance if my family didn't help me i would probably still be walking to work at 1:00 AM to Publix with a dead hip
This needs to be investigated people getting snap who don’t deserve it I am sick of people who abuse the snap system this healthy young man why isn’t he working ? The people stealing snap money need jail those reporting money stolen all need to be investigated 🙈
Wasteful to have that much taxpayer money getting stolen and all they need to do is add a chip.
its easy to steal with a chip to. hackers have scanners that can steal all the cards with a chip in your purse or wallet. look it up on youtube. educate yourself
I pray for all those people ❤
This is evil and since the government can fund wars, they can certainly help folks who need SNAP get their benefits back. DON'T JUDGE ANYONE who receives benefits. They have to be state approved and you don't know what that entails. On the outside they may look fine but on the inside they may be suffering horribly.
There is thankfully an alternative, food banks. I know it has saved me.
I think the government has something to do with it.
As a senior, I am always willing to work, unfortunately, some haters in the government makes it difficult, don't want me to work don't want me to get my full benefits They're withholding partly all my benefits, I am not blaming the people getting the benefits I am blaming the people changing your information on files to steal your benefits. Because of your hatred for me, you've been boldfacely stealing and withholding my benefits. In America, why are you giving struggling Americans blurry printed budgets, Something is not right and should be investigated. struggling Americans should be getting their stolen back. It's not their fault some wicked people choose to steal it from them.

Yes it always has happened. Paper stamps I know people that would go to certain stores n they would charge them 3x the price of cigarettes and beer for them to pay with stamps. Stores were making a fortune.

No liveable wages and some of us don't even get help with food and food banks have nothing. Welcome to the club of being lucky if you eat once a day.
The 19 year old is old enough to get a job. He should not be on food stamps.
There wasn't any issues with this back in the 70's and 80's when there was a physical food stamp booklet that people used
Now, it's "embarrassing" if people had to pay for food with actual food stamps, if I was hungry, I wouldn't worry about pulling out a booklet and have the cashier take what amount of stamps out of the book
#WORD
As someone who's disabled, on it... the card is for dignity and to keep track of who has it. It was too easy to steal stamps or stack them up secretly. It means you can't also, plan ahead in an emergency. I don't know how you people think it works but we only get paid once a month and have to figure out how to feed ourselves for an entire month... and it's not even the start of the month for me, it's the 10th.
There was a huge issue! People used to sell those books on the street for 50 on a dollar
We were raised, if you do not make enough money to support yourself, do not have children you can not feed. I would also like to add to the comment that wishes me hard times.

Hard times I hope befalls you so you can understand what it means to have to claw your way back to up to happiness. I don't make a lot, I can't buy a lot of nice things, the card gives me enough to eat for a month and I get enough money to keep the lights on and afford a little bit of entertainment.

@@arashiuchiha1591Well yeah if she did she wouldnt worry about feeding another child. In fact a real Mom would go hungry for her kids. Like mine did for my brothers before I was born.
THANK YOU FOR THIS COMMENT! No truer words ever spoken. If you can't feed yourself you CERTAINLY CAN'T FEED a child (or 10 children). Parents having children that they cannot take care of physically or emotionally is nothing more than child abuse.

Why does that 19 yr old need food stamps? Unless he has medical issues, he shouldnt be getting it. That is wrong. Laziness is not a medical issue.
The Cost of Living means no one can afford food and you can get on food stamps if your income matches. You don't get food stamps if you make a lot of money and they'll take it if you get a bonus of any kind. Before EBT, I had to decide if I wanted to eat that night or go deaf because I had to get medication and I only had enough for a dollar bag of pasta, no sauce and my medication... and I felt lower then dirt.
Why do I deserve to feel lower then dirt? Why does your fellow American not deserve a hot meal in their stomach?
@@arashiuchiha1591The thing is if hes healthy able bodied He can either get a second job, ask for more hours or donate plasma. All these able bodied people getting assistance makes it 10x harder for those that actually need it.

Our Highlands County transit, that’s paratransit for the disabled, is completely underfunded. so I can only take them to get groceries and that is it. I wish I got 200 and something dollars a month in food damps.
If you really want a job than you will get a job regardless of your disability instead of getting on ssi and getting subsidized housing.
@@MinnieMouselovesmickeymouse you need to go back in your little mouse hole because obviously you have never been caught in such a trap as many are in the situations. And no I am not a democrat if that should cross your mind
@@alwaysforever7481 Hi flowalsh524B. Why not use your regular name and hell people are working that are blind? why are you so different?
@@MinnieMouselovesmickeymouseWOW...at least we know that you are not employed where compassion is needed
DEI would have guaranteed you an equal opportunity to find gainful employment, but trump killed that. Thinking it was about black people.
Good luck.
Stop buying food on line.
So it appears that the fraudulent purchases were made at several Deli’s. That should be a start!!
On a separate note, assistance programs should be temporary and not a lifetime lifestyle. Why a 19-year old is on food stamps?! And purchases should only be approved at large/legitimate businesses not the shady convenience store scammers! I’m sure the victims cards got skimmed at these stores and their info are sent to their collaborators who own these Deli places!
Shut up if you don't know how the system actually works.
I know I tried to get some of my tax money back and I was denied also. I'm feed up with the abuse.
My Mother was 90 years old and living on $800 SS a month! She only qualified for $12.00 a month! WTH!
Your mother probably had some other income socked away that she didn't tell you about. Or you live in one of those states (most likely republican run) where they count a person's house as an asset in order to receive SNAP benefits. Because there's no way in the world a person here in Massachusetts would get only $12 a month with only $800 income.
@jamesbrown9721 That's Kentucky! Common Weath State!
Don’t use the app. That’s how they’re getting your info
I'm from Indiana- I don't use the app & ours were stolen!!
Yup that's how they got mine and guess what u would think they would send u something saying hey don't use any apps their not job and family services .... They knew it was going on and didn't warn any of us
What app?
There is no app for food stamps
@@susanemmendorfer7613 Yes there is
People need to change their PIN often. That is the only way to deal with this.
No that will not work. The skimmers read both card and pin number the 1st time you use it.
@patriciamays8244 locking the card if it is possible.
@DigitalMediaPatriots No cards can not be locked. SNAP cards are very low level security unfortunately.
@patriciamays8244 yes unfortunately those don't have that ability online. But the debit, credit, Venmo, and PayPal cards do. I protected myself in that way.
He 19 years old why he need snap???!!!
This is sad for those who are genuinely in need of help due to job loss, illness, etc. Doesn't the card have a lock feature on it?
No
We need to have specific groceries stores for EBT recipients. Also bring back the give out of Cheese , Beans and Peanut Butter.
Yeah let's also make them for blacks and whites only too
See that slope?
Check your privilege.
My kids mom has been claiming food stamps for our child that i have had custody of for over 2 years. Go figure. I can't get food stamps cuz i make too much but she doesn't work.
Then you need to report her for fraud.
@@nottodaylilbaldhead already did, and for failing to report me as father so she could prevent me from getting paternal right, but full custody now but they allow her to continue the fraud he's registered under my household.
@@nottodaylilbaldhead this is Michigan, took me 3 years to get a paternity test ordered. Lol
Then how come you two don't do a better job at managing how to care for your kid and help each other out? Oh wait, some of you shouldn't be a parent
@@arashiuchiha1591 hush up, adults are talking here about real life situations.
My understanding is the night before the card is reloaded you’re supposed to change your pin every month until your state puts a chip on the card. Why haven’t these people heard of this? Did the state of Ohio not inform the states Snap recipients ? I don’t have snap and yet I’ve heard about this from watching the news.
Welcome to Trump and the billionaires Country.. You can't put this on illegal immigrants...
Why is a 19 year old able person on snap? Why aren’t they trying to get a job and working?
they probaby cranked out kids already or something
@ something is very wrong with our society. I would think if you have kids you want to set good examples for them by like working and providing.
Let's clean up the system and arrest the criminals. And don't let them out for bail. Why are young healthy people on SNAP.
I live in Ohio, and that's what I'd like to know. There was a time when no able bodied men could get foodstamps.
Exactly! Food stamp fraud has been going on forever . DRAIN THE SWAMP PRESIDENT TRUMP
Because rents/grocery prices are too high,and even full time employment wages are too low! Are you Rich or something?
He could have mental issues, seizures?
Hungry? Go to study and go to work
19 and on snap really
My stamps where stolen back in November and still haven't been replaced they told me 45 - 90 days to be replaced
mine too. 💪 went to a food pantry a couple times but 😢
Complaining about immigrants getting hand outs but still complaining about American citizens getting a hand out? Why do some of you have this mindset that if I have to suffer, so should everyone else? Most of these people work but need assistance with food. I don’t agree with people abusing the system but there is a lot of judgement going on without anyone knowing the story of these people! Be grateful that you don’t need assistance.
That's exactly what it is. Well, I works three jobs in the 60s and didn't rely on stamps. Okay, and?? It's 2025 and sometimes you aren't even getting a call BACK from the 10 jobs you applied to. People are just heartless and unsympathetic. 😢
Ironic this Ohio, republican country.
Ohio is a country?
Ohio is a country?
Good decision President Trump🎉🎉🎉🎉
19 and can not work?
This will take years for Trump to get to unlike the TikTok band or his deportations which happened in less than a week.
19 year old man and on food stamps ? Smdh
Manages to get his hair styled...😮
As an aside, I noticed he isn't an immigrant, or minority.
College student they stay hungry.
He probably works at a grocery store. How much money could a 19 possibly have unless they are from a well off family.
You don’t seriously think that millions of dollars are being stolen and they don’t know how do you?!? Oh they know. They know exactly where it went too. Which is why you never hear about them going after the “ones” responsible. At least not the major players.
I really think it's a inside job.
Truth from your mouth
Its called work.....most people do it in order to survive....now I work doubles who else!!
Fifth
The Lockheed Martin F-22 Raptor was the first operational fifth-generation jet fighter.
Main article: Fifth-generation fighter
The huge advance of digital computation and mobile networking, which began in the 1990s, led to a new model of sophisticated forward C3 (command, control, and communications) presence above the battlefield. Such aircraft had previously been large transport types adapted for the role, but information technology had advanced to the point that a much smaller and more agile plane could now carry the necessary data systems. Sophisticated automation and human interfaces could greatly reduce crew workload. It was now possible to combine the C3, fighter and ground support roles in a single, agile aircraft. Such a fighter-and its pilot-would need to be able to loiter for long periods, hold its own in combat, maintain battlefield awareness and seamlessly switch roles as the situation developed.
Parallel advances in materials, engine technology and electronics made such a machine possible. From the start of the new millennium, advanced systems concepts such as smart helmets, sensor/data fusion, and subsidiary attack drones were becoming realities. Bringing together and integrating such advances, along with those of the fourth generation, created what has become known as the fifth generation of fighters. The first of these is generally acknowledged to be the Lockheed Martin F-22. Subsequent types include the Lockheed Martin F-35, Chengdu J-20,[24] Shenyang J-35, and Sukhoi Su-57.[25]
Like the good preacher once said “ Even people with a job need a little help from time to time” !
Why is it the taxpayers problem if your stuff gets stolen?
@@Good1-B so the tax payers have to pay TWICE? come on now
I live in Indiana & came across this video- I just recently had ours stolen! I don't use the app & check the machines when I pay! Doesn't matter- they had our pin! It's a damn shame bc why would you steal from people who don't have shit to begin with?! Before ya'll 🍑🤡 start- I have a job, my husband is disabled & we have kids... So keep ya rude ass judgy comments! You don't know wtf people are going through!
facts!
Sorry don’t believe you. You prob sold your card for drugs or something else. Impossible to have a card with PIN stolen unless it was given!
My husband is sick. We have kids but we do not qualify because of my income.
Right
So sorry to hear! Doesn't the card have a lock feature on it?
Going hungry a few nights is tough, but I didn't see any skinny people complaining. They all looked well fed.
