[Chat] Butcher's Choice scam

[Kathleen]

I had someone come to my door several months ago selling meat.  I thought they
mentioned Omaha Steak.  Since Emil and I don't eat meat, I just said "No, thanks"
and closed the door.  I didn't see a truck but maybe it's the same or similar operation.

He claimed that my neighbor had ordered meat (had her name, too, which makes me think he looked at her mail) and since she was not home he'd sell it to me for half off.  I thought he was lying as I don't think my neighbor eats meat. It's also just not something she'd do.  I Googled the company name and they operate in several states and are known scam artists who prey on the elderly when in fact the meat is outdated.  I called the police to report him.  Name of the company is Butcher's Choice of Baltimore, 410.553.6092 was listed on the truck but I've heard that those calls get forwarded to an out-of-state office.
