“We work like crazy. We don't deserve this.”assures a restaurateur from Cambrai (North), disillusioned after the flight of four customers, who left without paying. The latter came to dine in his establishment on Sunday November 10, 2024. And that evening, they had fun as the professional explains to RMC : “They had aperitifs, more expensive meats, steaks, wine…”
Left to smoke, the quartet never returned. But their faces were captured by CCTV cameras. The restaurateur did not hesitate to publish a photo on social networks, taking care to hide their faces.

“I said to myself, maybe there is someone who will recognize themselves. So I wait and give them until Thursday. If I see that they don't come forward, I will file a complaint and I will give the photos to the police station.”explains the professional. If they come back to pay, on the other hand, she assures that she will not follow up, she told our colleagues.
As recalled 20 Minutes this technique has already paid off for the restorer. Using the same process used six months ago, a couple returned to pay the bill after being posted on social media.
