11. Bogus dry-cleaning bill scam
This is a low-level scam which can earn its perpetrator significant amount of money if done of large enough scale. The con is quite simple. The scammers send letters to local restaurants, claiming that waiter has spilled a drink on his or her coat and demand reimbursement for a dry cleaning bill. Since it is usually a small amount, the restaurant owners will rather pay than go through dealing with a dissatisfied customer.
