When a Spartanburg County restaurant owner got an order for 300 meals, he was excited, but quickly learned it was too good to be true.
Dimitri Kakouras, who owns Grapevine Restaurant in Boiling Springs, got a phone call Monday asking the price for 300 meals. He said the call came in from a third-party service like one used for the hearing-impaired. He was talking to a woman who was communicating for a man who talking through a computer.
Kakouras said he gave the price and the customer said he would get back to him if it his company was fine with it. About two hours later, the customer called back, through the third-party system, confirmed the order and gave the number of a Discover credit card.
