  1. I have a Moroccan Restaurant in NYC and this past week, I began receiving emails from a George Murray Barr from a law firm in Scotland.  He wanted to make reservations for three nights for his staff.  I became skeptical and googled the Law firm as well as his phone number and your email popped up.  Wow!  Needless to say, there is no George Murray at the Law firm either. You can see by my responses at the onset of this dialogue, that we were very eager to have a large reservation in January of course.  However, today is when my instinct told me something was not right.  His email reads: Hello Toni,   Thanks for your reply and assistance so far.I am glad to tell you that we have concluded all payment arrangements. I will send to you my Visa credit card details that will cover the cost of our booking,and the necessary arrangement for the guests.Moreover,we also made an arrangement with a logistics agent who will take care of the following logistics to include.   1) Flights 2) Airport transfers on arrival and on departure 3)Transportation logistics during their stay   However, the prepaid agent has just informed us that their credit card merchant/terminal is faulty and is currently undergoing online upgrading and therefore cannot charge credit cards.So, we kindly solicit that once you are in receipt of my credit card details,you are required to charge $10,000.00 in  your account then deduct $2,000.00 as initial deposit and  transfer $8,000.00 to the prepaid flight/travel consultant, whose information I will forward to you once this is confirmed.     N.B:    All checks and balances will be made with you on the final day of the booking. So confirm this and provide me with your   1. YOUR FULL NAME.................... 2. ADDRESS..................................... 3. PHONE NUMBERS.................... for office records.   You are also to deduct the visa fees and taxes involved in processing this amount. PLEASE CONFIRM IF THIS ARRANGEMENT IS OK AND REPLY PROMPTLY TO ENABLE US PROCEED.   Kind regards, Barr.

My suggestion would be the Berber or the Tuareg.  Also, would you prefer cash or open bar?  Open Bar has three price structures: Beer, Wine and Sangria--$10per person/per hour Beer, Wine, Sangria, Well drinks - $15.00 pp/ph Unlimited BAR - $25.00pp/ph I have also attached our wine list.  Please let me know if you would like to make any substitutions to any of the menus.
