Hello~ See the link below…
Contact Apple Support - Apple Support
You will need to contact Apple. Many scams abound and due to this I purchase my Apple Gift Cards here…

The one thing I would recommend is to never purchase any Gift Card at a retail location where they display Gift Cards on a rack where anyone can tamper with them. Retailers are well aware of the common scam that occurs right in their store and some will fail to protect their customers purchase, even when they may lock up products they sell that results in them losing money due to theft. Only purchase gift cards from a retailer who secures them or directly from Apple.

Welcome and thank you for reaching out. 🤗
Check your sales receipt.
- If the card doesn’t appear on your sales receipt, that usually means the card was never activated at purchase.
- If the card appears on your sales receipt, then that usually means that the funds were already used.
Contact Apple Support with the receipt and serial number; only they can verify the card’s activation status and help resolve the issue.
Good Luck! 👋🏼😉
