#1 Her finger story had all the right elements: ick factor, fast food contamination and the mystery of the finger itself. Wendy's offered a reward of $50,000 for information about the source of the finger, later doubling it. At one point, Sandy Allman, a Nevada woman, came forward and suggested the fingertip belonged to her, lost during a tiger attack. It was not hers, instead turning out to have belonged to a coworker of Ayala's husband at a paving company. The unfortunate victim, Brian Paul Rossiter, lost the digit on the job when his hand was caught in a truck lift mechanism.

Hey Rossi, give me da finger dude.... no, no, no, the one lying on the floor.... I'm sick of this hot asphalt job. I now have a neat Chilli idea, eheheheheez.

#4 "I am truly sorry [that I got caught]. I owe Wendy's and its employees an apology [and a sh*tload of money]," a sobbing Ayala told the court.

"Wendy's had always been my family's favourite fast-food restaurant [and, 'til recently, our favorite target for fraud]."

She called her actions "a moment of poor judgement [--if I may call countless days and nights of plotting and intrigue 'a moment']" and told her family: "For all the shame I brought upon them I am sorry, I am so sorry. [However, I am still sorrier that I got caught.]"
