“This is a huge scam, started by a “former teacher” turned conman. She is completely ignoring me and I have tried to contact her in every possible way. This “scavenger hunt” completely ruined my bachelorette party, and she’s doing absolutely nothing about it. It was a huge waste of money, completely pointless, and overall a SCAM. Do not fall for this. Do not give this woman any of your money. She lies about what this is (we chose the “walking scavenger hunt” because we didn’t have a rental car & the things she claimed we could walk to, keep in mind it’s a 2 hour hunt, we’re 40-50 minute walks..?!??!).…”
