Getting a rebate for a scam website

that's a common scam, usually purporting to be from one's boss, who needs the gift cards in a hurry, for a presentation or some such.

was it them or your credit card who refunded you ?

It was the company, not the credit card who refunded. I'm not usually gullible, just a weak moment!

It is easily done.

I was nearly fooled by an email recently on my secure Diocesan email account, allegedly from my Parish Priest, asking me to buy Apple gift cards.
I had just been in contact with him, but I was tired and only glanced at it. Later when I read it, I realised that the language was so flowery and he would never do that, so reported it.
Very few people know that address, so they were very clever to find it.

My latest pastime is watching scambait videos on You Tube.

The problem is that I now trust no-one!

Glad you got your refund.
