ScoutCookies have been introduced More than 100 years ago, by Vox, but on a much smaller scale than we see today. In 1917, a troop in Muskogee, in Oklahoma, began to sell homemade cookies to finance various activities. And in the coming years, scouts - often like their family members - have prepared simple sugar cookies for sale. In 1934, the first commercially cooked cookies were introduced, but 1939 was the real red year, because the thin mints, then known as Cooky-Menthes, came for the first time. Today theCookie program has become the "biggest financial investment in girls every year in the United States", according to scouts.

The names of cookies (and taste!) Vary depending on where you live, but you recognize tagalongs or peanut butter, they hold the same sentimental place in our hearts. Recently, however, the sales of cookies have become frightened in New York, and some impatient buyers ended up falling for a new clever scam.

A real lifecookie Seized the county of Suffolk, Long Island, reported CBS New York. Long Island police have warned residents of incidents where a young girl and an adult man have taken orders and money for scouts, but never delivered them. Police has received 11 reports on the scam so far, according to CBS, and investigate the possible links.

The drawbacks occurred In mid-April in Lake Ronkonkoma, Bohemia, Patchogue, Shirley and Mastic, reported ABC7 New York. And as cookies should have been received now and the scouts do not have payment in advance, the red flags have increased.

Kevin ZasowskiOne of the victims of the patch duo, told ABC7 that a girl between five and six years old approached her door and asked him if he wanted to buy scout cookies.

"She was so cute," Zasowski told CBS. "You couldn't resist him."

Another resident who was defrauded in "purchasing" cookies,Nick Zavesky, noted his shock against the new program, also expressing concerns about the well-being of the little girl. "I like to help each organization. I order them every year. Who would have thought that a scam like this would happen?" Zavesky told CBS. "These are not money. These are the principles you teach your child."

The Girl Scouts Council of the County Suffolk published a statement concerning the CON, urging those who have been targeted to manifest themselves.

"The Suffolk County Scout Council was saddened to learn that someone would use the inherent good will of scouts to take money from their neighbors under false pretexts," said the statement, according to CBS. "We are working with the police and encourage anyone who thought they had been the victim of this scam to contact the Police of Suffolk to submit a report."

But not all hopes are lost, because the scouts plan to honor fraudulent orders, ensuring that local residents can obtain their cookie solution. "Our product sales service will provide cookies to anyone who has made a false order, because nothing is more disappointing than not obtaining your scout cookies!" The organization said.
