A 30-year old woman in Nebraska, Stacy M. Sellner, tried to fool a coin dealer into accepting chocolate coins as real coins. She and another man lured the dealer into a gas station parking lot, but when he refused the coins, she pepper sprayed him and vanished. Months later, Ms. Sellner was arrested for shoplifting from a shoe store, which led to her arrest for the chocolate deception.
