A Chick-fil-A cashier in Dalton, Ga., was scammed by a smooth-talking customer who walked away with more than $90 in cash and free Chick-fil-A, police say.

According to Dalton Police Department, the suspect walked into the Chick-fil-A location at the Walnut Square Mall on Oct. 4, where he proceeded to order $7.71 worth of food. He then handed the cashier a $100 bill.

However, as the cashier began counting out his change, he engaged her in conversation and began barraging her with questions, which police say served as a distraction. Then, when she was about to hand over the money, the suspect told her he could provide exact change, and took his hundred dollars back.

While “keeping the cashier talking,” he then reached over the counter and grabbed his receipt, police say. Afterward, he asked her for his $92.29 in change, and she mistakenly ended up handing over the cash — à la the cashier in the Oscar-winning 1973 film "Paper Moon."

In the end, the suspect walked out of Chick-fil-A with his original $100, plus an additional $92.29 and his Chick-fil-A order.

When I worked retail these dudes were easy to spot. Pretty fun catching them and calling them out.

When I used to work at a similar place, I'd always train my people to be on the lookout for this sort of thing. It's funny to watch once you figure out what the guy/woman is doing, because they will attempt draw your attention talking about other things, while asking for weird arse change combinations. The easiest way to deal with it is to shut the drawer, give back the original bill paid, and decline the sale.

This used to happen a lot to women cashiers when i worked at Delchamps when I was 15-18. I used to think it was funny at first, then I felt bad because they lived in the ghetto and were stupid.

The customer is a POS piece of trash. Hopefully, the police catches this thief.

He can take that $92.29 and buy a cow costume and parlay this into a lifetime of free chicken sandwiches.

Yeah but I can see how a 16 year old cashier can get caught up in it.
