Wendy’s hoaxer admits she cooked finger
The Las Vegas woman forever known for the finger licking scam she tried to pull on Wendy’s in 2005 admitted recently how she prepared the finger she falsely claimed came with her Wendy’s chilli, CBS affiliate KPIX-TV said.
“I cooked it,” Anna Ayala said.
Gross!!
It seems Ayala prepared her co-worker’s finger in chili similar to that made at Wendy’s, the TV station reports.
Ayala was released from prison a year ago after serving 4 years of her sentence.
As a condition of her parole, she cannot go in to a Wendy’s.
The finger was traced back to Ayala’s co-worker who lost it in an work accident. The co-worker gave it to Ayala’s husband to settle a bet.
There were plenty of jokes made about the case. But Wendy’s wasn’t laughing. Based in Dublin, Ohio, the fast food chain claimed it lost $2.5 million in sales because of the bad publicity.
