  1. Got the email to click on payment, did Amazon gift card and no follow up email or tracking information. Not in spam/trash either. Contacted administrator who sent me an 800 number to call BHN/Hawk Incentives that sounded like they were foreign and they can’t find any information on my case even though I provided the number. Have I been scammed? I didn’t give out information and they “escalated” my case and so far nothing since 2 days ago asking for more information. If they can’t find my name in their system then I have to wonder if it was hacked.
