It's Mojo in the Morning Show, your home of the phone scams. We are going to call, is it Lorna that we're calling? We're calling Lorna. She works at a tiny family-run coffee shop, and we're going to scare her into thinking that Starbucks is going in right next door. It's a Mojo in the Morning phone scam.

00:00:50 - 00:01:00 | Speaker 1:

We will, we will scam you. Sorry, it's a catchy song. It's your home of phone scams. Mojo in the Morning.

00:01:03 - 00:01:16 | Speaker 5:

Good morning. Hi, good morning. Who's this speaking? This is Lorna. Hi, Lorna. My name is Schweff Tongula, and I'm the district manager of the new business going down at the end of the strip. I just want to call and introduce myself and say hello.

00:01:18 - 00:01:20 | Speaker 2:

Hi, I'm sorry. What's your name again?

00:01:20 - 00:01:23 | Speaker 5:

My name's Schweff with a silent J. Tongula.

00:01:24 - 00:01:28 | Speaker 2:

I'm sorry. It's loud here. What business did you say you work for?

00:01:28 - 00:02:00 | Speaker 5:

Oh, we're actually the big corner store that's been under construction for the past four months, which reminds me, I should thank you for your patience during this mess. But construction's almost over, and we should be opening very soon. The other reason I'm calling is to see if you wanted to contribute all of the businesses at S*** Plaza. We're talking about hiring a Santa to make an appearance the weekend before Christmas, and we're kind of asking to pull donations, whatever you could afford, and then Santa will be going in and out of our stores and also waving at the cars that drive by our lot. hopefully waving a few of them into the business.

00:02:01 - 00:02:05 | Speaker 2:

Sure, I'd be glad to get more info, but doesn't the landlord do that?

00:02:05 - 00:02:05 | Speaker 5:

Do what?

00:02:06 - 00:02:10 | Speaker 2:

I thought Matt and his team who handle the complex handle all of that stuff.

00:02:10 - 00:02:31 | Speaker 5:

Oh, yeah, well, they do all the decorating. I mean, let's face it, they do the bare minimum. I don't know if you saw the flags and the lights on the poles in the parking lot, but we appreciate that, but we want to go over the top. We want to hire an actual Santa to encourage foot traffic. Our business won't even be opening until next month, So we're not even going to actually be able to take advantage of the holiday shoppers. We're just being a participant as a goodwill gesture.

00:02:32 - 00:02:38 | Speaker 2:

Yeah, well, we've been wondering what that store is going to be because we've been seeing the contractors go in and out of that place for the last few months.

00:02:38 - 00:02:42 | Speaker 5:

Yes. Oh, yeah. Well, if nobody told you, we're going to be a Starbucks.

00:02:44 - 00:02:44 | Speaker 2:

What?

00:02:45 - 00:02:45 | Speaker 5:

A Starbucks.

00:02:47 - 00:02:47 | Speaker 2:

Starbucks coffee?

00:02:48 - 00:02:54 | Speaker 5:

Yes, ma'am. One of our new Reserve Roastery Superstores. I don't know if you've seen them. They are beautiful inside.

00:02:55 - 00:02:55 | Speaker 2:

You're kidding.

00:02:56 - 00:02:59 | Speaker 5:

No, I know. Isn't it great? Wait till you see the buzz when the doors open.

00:03:00 - 00:03:01 | Speaker 2:

You know who you're talking to, right?

00:03:02 - 00:03:03 | Speaker 5:

Yeah, the name's Lorna, right?

00:03:05 - 00:03:11 | Speaker 2:

Yes, of the ****** Cafe. We are one of the oldest independent cafes west of Toledo.

00:03:12 - 00:03:13 | Speaker 5:

Oh, congratulations.

00:03:15 - 00:03:18 | Speaker 2:

And you're opening a Starbucks in the same shopping center?

00:03:19 - 00:03:21 | Speaker 5:

Yes, ma'am, and we look forward to meeting you.

00:03:22 - 00:03:29 | Speaker 2:

Look, I got to be honest. I have to call the landlord because how can there be two coffee shops on the same corner of the strip mall?

00:03:29 - 00:03:40 | Speaker 5:

Oh, well, I mean, apparently you don't have any kind of exclusivity in your lease contracted through next year. But, hey, it's all good. We just attract more coffee consumers to the area, so we all benefit.

00:03:40 - 00:03:45 | Speaker 2:

No, we've been here for 18 years. My mom opened this coffee shop.

00:03:45 - 00:03:50 | Speaker 5:

Right, but you understand what we mean. We all benefit. It just brings more coffee drinkers to the corner.

00:03:52 - 00:03:53 | Speaker 2:

This doesn't make sense.

00:03:53 - 00:04:00 | Speaker 5:

Well, I mean, if you can't figure out, this is good for everyone, but I'd be glad to talk to you about it over a Peppermint White Chocolate Mocha Frappuccino Blended Beverage. Our treat.

00:04:01 - 00:04:03 | Speaker 2:

I don't think so. I need to talk to Matt about this.

00:04:04 - 00:04:08 | Speaker 5:

Okay, yeah, give him a call. He spoke so highly of you, Lorna. They seem like great people.

00:04:09 - 00:04:11 | Speaker 2:

Oh, really? But he's going to put a Starbucks next to me?

00:04:11 - 00:04:15 | Speaker 5:

Well, we're building the Starbucks. He just leased the building for 15 years.

00:04:16 - 00:04:19 | Speaker 2:

You know what? I think we're done talking here. I need to make a phone call. Okay, Lorna, wait.

00:04:19 - 00:04:26 | Speaker 5:

There's one more thing I've got to tell you. actually, this is just Spike from the Mojo in the Morning show, and you've just been the victim of a phone scam.

00:04:27 - 00:04:28 | Speaker 2:

Oh, my God.

00:04:30 - 00:04:42 | Speaker 5:

We got an email from Elena. Who's Elena? That's my mom. Okay. Your mom told us to phone scam you. You've been worried about what that business was going to be. You've been pretty nosy. Yes. As far as I know, it's not going to be

00:04:42 - 00:04:47 | Speaker 2:

a Starbucks. Okay, good, because my heart is beating out of my chest right now.

00:04:48 - 00:04:50 | Speaker 5:

That's the caffeine. Too much caffeine.
