If I were working at the checkout and hearing warnings for "scam alerts" whatever they are, I'd certainly be hesitant to sell a few thousand dollars worth and having it become my problem again later on.
There is a prompt that comes up at $1000 that asks for "business details". Some checkout staff will have no idea what to do, some will insist on you providing them, and some just type in anything and don't ask. If you look on your receipt, see what appears in the "Business Details" section, which is what they would have typed in.I bought the exact same amount at the same store with the same operator the day before without having to give my phone number. In fact, I've bought more than $1000 on many previous occasions at that store and others without ever having to give any personal details at all, other than swipe my EDR card where all that and more lives.
