I once had a person that was hired by my company and then started bragging about finding a way to add stored value to gift cards. Then come to find out they were under investigation by the FBI. This was a government contractor mind you, so the biggest security guard I’ve ever seen showed up to escort them out.

What does “add stored value to gift cards” mean?
I'm guessing it means they can fraudulently add money to a store gift card without it costing anything.
I think it means "take a gift card with $10 value stored and make it a gift card with $20 stored".
