A FAKE memo claiming McDonald's stores deliberately rip off customers has been revealed to be the work of the same prankster behind an infamous email about a seven-legged spider.

The document, mocked-up with an official McDonald's Australia letterhead and signed by fictitious managing director "Robert Trugabe", outlines a secret plan to save money by leaving items out of drive-through orders.
Quote:
The front page of McDonald's Australia's website currently features a customer alert denouncing the fake memo as an "email scam".


here's the memo:


and the article: http://www.news.com.au/technology/story/0,28348,26208452-5014239,00.html

and one of David Thorne's latest pieces involving his own fake memo: http://www.27bslash6.com/R1200GS.html

I worked at Micky D's a couple years ago, and if this would occur, the customer would come back raging. Anybody who believes this is retarded.



BK keeps doing this to me while on my break at work, it pisses me off to no end. I have the store's phone number memorized.

Yeah, totally. I feel like the majority of people check that their whole order is there upon receiving it. I know I would go back in pissed if this was the case.

What you think is an M is actually a T with a line dropping down to make the "r".
