Priests out Oil Workers back in **scam alert**

scamers

As the seasons change from one of disappointing greyness and rain to fully expected greyness and rain so the scammers change from Greek Priests to oil workers. It is a ritual as old as the internet. One minute you are fending off the corrupt approaches of Greek Priests bearing credit cards the next you're trying [...]

The Shittiest Trick in the World…

magician

The world is full of shysters, deviants, bores and mouth breathers. These facts are self-evident. And at some point these shysters, deviants, bores and mouth breathers will cross your path much like they cross my path on a depressingly regular basis. Take the six top that dragged their knuckles my way just the other day. [...]

Last week's tale of dine and dash shenanigans has ended well with one man appearing in court. Being a big massive douchebag he defended himself by blaming it all on his girlfriend saying that he was just trying to impress her and that she was high maintenance. An ass-hat for damn sure. Still, it could [...]

Busted!

And they've been busted. The cheeky feckers who did a bunk leaving an unpaid bill of over £500 and a stiffed waiter in their wake tried it again the following day. Can you imagine the balls on this pair! The Evening Standard has the story... A couple who ran off without paying a £572 bill [...]

Some people will do anything to get out of paying the bill. Take last week, or was it the week before? I don't know any more, all the days run into one - wait, wait, wait grumble grumble grumble. Anyhoo I had a table a week or maybe two weeks ago. They seemed a nice [...]

Too Fat For Jail Eh?

This lumbering carbuncle is one George Jolicoeur. He's pleasant on the eye no? It's like looking at the human manifestation of Jabba the Hutt. Actually maybe he's eaten ole Jabba. Anyhoo, what, I hear you ask is this fat tub of super lard doing sweating his pasty white face off on this here blog? Well [...]

Beware Greek Priests Bearing Credit Cards

Ha, news of another restaurant scamola doing the rounds has landed in my inbox. It follows in the fraudulent footsteps of this little gem but without the desperately hungry oil rig workers playing the role of the protagonists. No, now it's Greek Priests. It should be noted that we, nearly, fell for the original scam [...]
