Someone in the authority needs to do something about this store! My card shows history that it was used here. Someone has stolen my food stamps and cash two months and today I checked the transaction history, it shows that my card was used here. All my money is gone over $1000 on my two cards. These Indians are thieves - how can some pay for something without a physical card! Please New York authorities help us because this is too much. This store has to be closed and the owners must be arrested!

They took 280$ of my ebt card two different charges this is ridiculous they lucky I don’t pop up to the store and ransack it because I do in fact live in New York however I never been here a day in my life. not sure how they got my card information will be calling the authorities and fraud number to report this I already filed a claim! These people deserve to be shut down ! I even called the store and the man was really nasty and said NO EBT and sent me to voicemail after he rudely hung up. These people need to go to hell

I would never have known about this cesspool of a store, but some sorry excuse for a human being decided they would drain my EBT card of ALL my funds. I live in California, but clearly location makes no difference to these criminals. Every one of you who have experienced this low life scam should file a police report where you live and also with the New York police so that someone will be held accountable and this filthy hole in the wall can get shut down for good.

And whoever it is that responds to the reviews on behalf of this business, if you were not responsible for all of this you would have cleared your name long ago. Instead you try to defend yourself to innocent people and look even a bigger fool when you can’t even come close to spelling your words correctly.

My ebt card was also fraudulently accessed on 1/27/23. Took 180.34 and left me with .56 Found out the phone number and called. Man was rude and told me I was wasting his time. Such a loss for me. Why isn't something done about this? I live in a different state and this is theft and fraud.*This transaction was manually entered. This is NOT a lie as suggested by the owners comment. The DHS is being contacted on MI. This store must be stopped!

I live in VA they let someone come in the store and use my card without the physical card (fraud) a random person. I do not know the person or how they got my information. Then I proceeded to tell the guy and he hung up on me & turned the phone off. They are rude, unprofessional, and committing food stamp fraud every day. They should be locked up and there business license taken away.

They took funds off my EBT card unauth.. They need to be investigated. I don't even live or been there. I called this place and he cursed at me. Fraudsters

This is definately a ripoff for EBT. I am in contact with a DEA/ATF investigator in connection with the "company". I was told by the DHHS that they are already setting up survellience.
These are the people we let into our country and they have already committed crimes in their own and flee just to do the same here. They involve entire families in this fraud practice.

I just experienced the same thing that someone else experience I live in Charlotte North Carolina and a charge came from this very store. They took $424 from me and I called the store and they keep hanging up the phone on me so I had to get the police involved in this matter that’s $424 in EBT knowing that they take EBT because I call different stores around and they say they take it and I don’t understand why they can continue to steal someone’s information and think it’s OK so when they say that somebody is lying about their store, nobody is lying because this is personal number two. I see another young lady that lives in Charlotte, and the same thing happened to her so we are not lying. I have not been to New York. This happened to me yesterday on the 18th at 3:15 yesterday this was January 18, 2023. I was nowhere near New York City at all. I was at the doctors office so they are lying. They are stealing and they need to definitely be reported and I made a police report and that’s what everybody else needs to do as well because every time I called they keep hanging up hang up hang it up that’s how you know they are nothing but thieves. It was terminal 5631000 one on Lexington Avenue 459 Lexington Ave.
