Sneaky Tourist Tricks Restaurant with a Gross Tactic to Dodge the Bill – See How She Used a Cockroach!
- Replies 7
In a world where most of us are trying to uphold values of honesty and integrity, it's disheartening to hear about those who go to great lengths to deceive others for their own gain. The Seniors Discount Club is all about celebrating the good in life, but sometimes, we also need to shed light on the less savory actions that can occur, especially when they serve as a cautionary tale for businesses and consumers alike.
Recently, a tourist at the Puerto Chale Restaurant in Guadalajara, Mexico, was caught on CCTV in what can only be described as a revolting attempt to avoid paying for her meal. The footage, which has since gone viral with over 3.3 million views, shows the woman engaging in a deceitful act that left many viewers shocked and appalled.
As the video reveals, the woman was seated at a table laden with food, surrounded by three companions. She appeared to be enjoying her meal and conversation until she made a calculated move that would turn the evening on its head. Looking around to ensure no one was watching, she discreetly retrieved what seemed to be a small container from under the table and, with a quick flick of her wrist, dropped an object onto her plate. Moments later, it became clear that the object was, disgustingly, a dead cockroach.
The woman's performance escalated as she feigned shock and horror at the sight of the insect in her food, even going as far as to gag and make vomiting gestures to sell the act. A waitress, unaware of the ruse, rushed over to address the situation and promptly removed the dish from the table.
The tourist's act didn't stop there. She continued to eat, all while preparing to lodge a complaint at the till. Her complaint, coupled with a threat to cause a scandal, led to the group being excused from the bill. It was only after they left that the restaurant manager reviewed the CCTV footage and realized the family had allegedly staged a premeditated scam.
The community's reaction to this incident was one of collective disgust and condemnation. Locals have even dubbed the woman the 'Roach Lady,' a nickname that will likely stick for some time. Comments poured in, criticizing the family's actions and the restaurant's initial response. Some argued that the restaurant should have checked the footage immediately, while others expressed sympathy for the business that was taken advantage of.
This incident serves as a stark reminder that vigilance is key in the hospitality industry. It's crucial for businesses to have protocols in place to handle such situations and to investigate thoroughly before issuing refunds or waiving charges. For patrons, it's a call to remember the importance of honesty and the impact that fraudulent actions can have on small businesses.
