AG: Fraudsters stole $100,000 pretending to be Sahadi’s grocery store
Attorney General Letitia James is suing a company that she claims is pretending to be the local Brooklyn grocery store Sahadi. The Attorney General claims that the company has defrauded its way into $100,000 by creating a corporation with a similar name and address.
James is suing a company named Sahadi Fine Foods Products Inc., which is using the same address as the previously established Sahadi Fine Foods Inc.
“This fraud is causing real harm to small businesses,” said Pat Whelan of Sahadi’s Fine Foods. “We thank Attorney General James for taking quick action to stop these fraudsters and protect small businesses.”
