not a review, just a scam

so, i'm in the process of being scammed. only the scammer doesn't know i know i'm being scammed.

for some crazy reason there's a catering/personal chef scam "ring" out there.

wild and crazy, huh? bored much?

do they sit around a conference table and discuss who their next con-victim's gonna be?

scam artist #1: hey, i have an idea! let's screw over the private chefs. they're probably stupid and will fall for anything.

scam artist #2: yeah, that's a great idea. let's do it. let's ruin them all, one by one.

a catering friend of mine was recently almost scammed but the whole thing started getting fishy when they wanted her to mail a cashier's check to someone for them (while their check was en route to her). yeah, right. what kind of brainless idiot would do that for someone in the uk they've never met? oh and hello, cashier's check? my red flag alert would have gone through the roof. who uses cashier's checks? what's a cashier's check anyway?

she called the cops. and the fbi. and the secret service. and the news. no one gave a frog's fat ass.

i've always been super-skeptical of weirdos. i can smell a rat a mile away.

what's really funny is that another personal chef friend of mine got the exact same email request for a private dinner party from someone on the west coast trying to arrange a party here in dc.

fortunately we're really, really smart girls. you can't scam us, you knuckleheads.

we're going to catch you and blow your weird-ass con-game outta the water, you rat-bastard, time-wasting buffoons. so if you're reading this, stop f*ing with me.

thanks.
