- couchand 5y agoI order all the time from a restaurant with a distinctive name and menu near me. They might have their own website, but their real website is one of these outsourced menu ordering things. Last time I went to order, I looked up their name, went to the page by that name on the known third party menu site, ordered my usual order from their usual menu, only to discover after the charge went through that a scammer had copied their name and entire menu onto a new restaurant on the same site. Called immediately to cancel the order (why doesn't the site have that option??) and the woman on the phone feigned ignorance. A few minutes later a gruff man called me back and told me I wouldn't be getting a refund. Not sure what I said to convince him, but maybe enough threats and he decided to change his tune. The scammers are running the asylum.
- david422 5y agoSure, and I agree that this is really the only way, but also isn't super practical for a lot of things.
