Yes, I have seen this from Amazon before and the only work around is to use:
www.amazon.com/access <http://www.amazon.com/access>
Even then, I'm still not sure to what extent that works.

Hello:
I do a lot of Swagbucking and m Amazon cards are sent via email, so that isn’t
the issue. I’ve redeemed Amazon cards for years without issues. Saturday was
the first time I’ve ever seen this. I even tried with different web browsers.
The people at Amazon said some parts of their site use captchas now. Go figure.

First of all, I have redeemed several gift cards from Amazon and there was no
captcha. I thought maybe it had changed recently when I read this thread but I
went to the website and I see no captcha. I approached this both from the main
site and the access site even though I never actually use the access site. Both
with Audible and Amazon, I much prefer to use the main site. So I'm a little
puzzled as to how one person could see a captcha while another doesn't. You do
have to sign in with your username and password and you do have to enter the
claim code. You even can get around reading a claim code by having people email
your gift cards instead of sending them by snail mail or giving them to you
when the person involved uses email. It's not that i'm doubting your statement
that there was a captcha; I personally simply don't see any request for one and
never have in my own experience. Maybe they have started doing it for some
accounts and others will follow though that doesn
't totally make sense to me either.
Secondly, some other form of security besides username and password in some
instances is not, in my opinion, overkill. At least from what I know about
passwords being stolen or hacked, i don't think it's overkill. We can argue
about whether that other form should be captcha r not and we can argue about
whether or not there should be an accessible alternative and what that
alternative should be, but i don't really think we can argue that something in
addition to username and password is overkill, at least in some situations.
It is true that Amazon does require captchas in some instances; I rarely run
into this on Amazon but I think when you set up an account and perhaps when you
change your password you might have to enter a captcha, but I'm not going to
change mine just to test this out. There may be some other instances.

I tried and tried to turn over a new leaf.
I got crumpled wads of tear-stained paper
thrown in the trash!
Then God gave me a new heart and life:
His joy for my despairing tears!
And now, every day:
"This I call to mind,
and therefore I have hope:
The steadfast love of the Lord
never ceases;
his mercies never come to an end;
they are new every morning;
great is your faithfulness."
(Lamentations 3:21-23 ESV)

Hi,
Thanks for this information Sarai. I'm sending it to an accessibility lawyer I
know here in California to get her take on whether or not this is an acceptable
solution and what further action can be taken. I for one am not comfortable
with this solution as it would mean giving an amazon representative anything
from your gift card number to your password which could give them access to
saved credit card information.
