is it possible for LE to track which online account redeemed a specific gift card?

[ImposterJack]

I've been looking online and didn't get the comforting answer i was looking for , more like i got a lot more of different conflicting answers from multiple online game blogs and decided to get a confirming answer from people who bought and redeemed stolen giftcards in the past.
im planning on buying giftcards with monero from coinsbe and i want to confirm if i can use them with my personal accounts in case they are stolen,

Yes, meme commerce. Gift cards have their own form of serial numbers. As it gets moved from the manufacturer to the wholesaler to the distributor it is how inventory is kept in tact. Should you land on $100,000 worth of bonds or gift cards it will be known the minute they land in your possession.

I can assure you that the card's manufacturer tracks gift cards, even if the store doesn't. I'm not positive, but it seems reasonable to me that the companies who generate gift cards maintain a record of the bar codes that are specific to each card and linked to the addresses of the retailers to which they are mailed (or at least to a postal service business that records the orders). The card is then scanned and activated in-store, where there are cameras all over, once the customer purchases it.
If I were LE, I would subpoena the card company to get a list of where each batch of bar codes was sent to find the corresponding card.I could then locate the retailer and issue a subpoena for camera footage taken between the date the card shipment arrived and the date of purchase. All of the card buyers (particularly those who payed for a card worth more than the suspicious transaction amount) could then be connected to a nearby car in the parking lot (again cameras), which could then be connected to a license plate, etc. Even if the retailer doesn't directly track the card, the information is out there someplace, so I don't understand the assumption that something with unique identifiers like a barcode and card number cannot be traced

Really the most safe idea is to use xmr to buy giftcards via a no kyc site (like stealths . net). And if u need physical cards, them sent to a drop address

Well, just like carding, there is a reason why so many people are conducting this business in a way that they SELL the stolen credentials, and not use it themselves. Simply, because using it themselves, although more profitable, carries significantly more risk.
The question is, what sort of OpSec did you implement while redeeming that gift card, what was the amount for, where is the site officially located where the gift card was redeemed?
These are just assumptions and I have no experience/knowledge in the field, but I think it's safe to assume the bigger the amount, the bigger the risk, and if the giftcard site in question would be likely to co-operate with Law Enforcement, if they did end up investigating the matter.
In my subjective experience you are overthinking it, and LE has bigger (and easier) fish to fry, than a stolen gift card redemption
