🚨 SCAM ALERT — LOCAL MEAT MARKETS & BUSINESSES 🚨
The Kendall County Sheriff’s Office is warning local meat markets and businesses about an ongoing scam involving an individual who has been targeting meat markets in Kendall County and the San Antonio area.
The individual goes by the name “Brian” and reportedly:
🔴 Calls meat markets and places large meat orders
🔴 Provides a deposit over the phone using a credit card
🔴 Claims he is from Dallas and resells meat from his van
🔴 States that he has a website, TheMeatland.com
🔴 Arranges for the large order to be prepared and loaded into his vehicle
🔴 Leaves quickly after picking up the order — before the business discovers that the credit card is fraudulent/invalid
🔴 Has reportedly used the phone number 646-305-6774
We are aware of multiple businesses that have been targeted, and we want to make sure other businesses don’t fall victim to the same scam.
⚠️ PLEASE VERIFY LARGE PHONE ORDERS AND CREDIT CARD PAYMENTS BEFORE RELEASING ANY MERCHANDISE.
If your business has been victimized by this individual and you have surveillance footage, photographs, vehicle information, receipts, or other evidence, please contact the Kendall County Sheriff’s Office at 830-249-9721.
Please share this post with local businesses, especially meat markets and other businesses that may be targeted.
🛑 DON’T LET A LARGE ORDER TURN INTO A LARGE LOSS.
