AmEx accuses restaurateurs of $1.1M fraud conspiracy
It looks like AMEX is agressively going after rogue merchants. An article by E. Thomas Woods at the Nashville post explains just exactly how AMEX is going on the offensive
A family that runs three Italian-themed bistros in Nashville used a secret recipe of sorts to bilk American Express out of more than $1 million, the credit-card company claims.
American Express Travel Related Services Company filed suit last Wednesday against Michael D. Tangredi, his son Michael G. Tangredi and their company M. Tangredi Restaurants Inc., as well as related parties.
The M. Tangredi firm lists four restaurants on its company Web site: Tangredi’s Italian Kitchen on Elliston Place, T’s Bar and Grill on Belcourt where The Trace and Faison’s used to be, Michael T’s on Division St., and Bada Bing!, a casual Italian restaurant in Maui, Hawaii.
