Dani Davidson, owner of Robusta Cafe in Guelph is warning surrounding businesses of an order scam she received last week.
Davidson was contacted via email from someone identifying themselves as Sarah Jason using the email [email protected]
The person was attempting to place an order for 150 frontline workers and have a driver come pick up the order but following the first email, red flags were already set off.
The immediate concern was the emails of the person being very eager to pay without even finishing the order details. Davidson searched the phone number and email address online to find the same person had been targeting massage parlors and salons.
Had everyone gone through, Davidson says she would have lost around $2000.
Businesses are warned to be careful of anyone attempting to make large order.
