So, I am just putting this out there I don't know how many others who do home baking that has been dealing with this, but with that said, here lately I have been getting alot of scam orders! These people will go to something, that I have recently posted. Sharing my work that I have done for other clients ones, that are actually serious about the orders they place, and are repeat customers.
Just recently not thinking about it i had a person order a dozen cupcakes and while that in and of itself is not unusual and it was just a dozen that means i still have a dozen more to sell of each flavor ordered. In this case it was a dozen total half white half chocolate. So I had a dozen and a half extra of each flavor and it just so happened I already had a larger order 3 full sheet cakes for the celebration of a Lutheran Pastor who was going to a new church. I verify every order the week before the person needs it, just to make sure they still need it or that nothing has changed like they need more or they have to cancel whatever the case maybe. Well it just so happened i did have the larger order so I asked hey if this ends up she doesn't show I will give these away would you be interested in cupcakes as well so she took them which saved me having to take them back and tossing them. So has anyone else out there had this happen? Scam orders and then they won't respond when you try to call their number or you try to message on FB or where ever to make contact ? I am beyond over that any suggestions on how to avoid this altogether?
