I've been conned !

I think I've been conned. And it was so straight-forward I never realised it until the next day when I really thought about it.

I had dinner with a friend last night at Chilli's KLCC. The food, as usual, was good. When we're done, I asked for the bill. Dinner costed RM83 plus, so I put two RM50 notes on the tray. A male waiter took them. After a few minutes, he came back and told me that I've mistakenly given him one RM50 note and one RM1 note. Oh ok, my mistake, so I exchanged the RM1 note with another RM50 note.

This afternoon, as I was paying for lunch, it suddenly occurred to me that I only have one RM50 note left in my wallet. I remember checking my wallet before I went out for dinner last night. There were FOUR RM50 notes inside. Now there was only one. So where did one go?

I could be mistaken, you say, but seriously, it's highly unlikely that I made a mistake about the amount of money I had in my wallet last night. I strongly suspect I was conned at Chilli's (bastard!). Unfortunately, there is nothing I can do about it since I have no proof whatsoever. Damn!

It was such a simple trick and I suspect a lot of Chilli's customers were already victims. So lesson learnt. The next time I eat there, I'll pay by credit card.
