The story of Sarma Melngailis is one of ambition, success, and a shocking scam that pulled her entire world apart. It begins with a bold dream in New York City and ends with a cross-country chase, unpaid employees, and millions of dollars missing. This tale shows how even the brightest people can be pulled into something they never expected.

Before any scam touched her life, Sarma Melngailis built a strong reputation in the food world. She co-founded Pure Food and Wine, one of the first upscale raw vegan restaurants in the country. The restaurant became an instant hot spot. Celebrities filled the dining room, and her brand “One Lucky Duck” boomed. For a while, she seemed unstoppable.

That changed when Sarma met a mysterious man named Shane, someone who would later be exposed as a con artist. He told dramatic stories about secret government missions, elite groups, and even strange interdimensional claims. Most shocking, he promised he could make her dog immortal if she proved her loyalty. Those promises opened the door to a devastating scam that would drain her money and control her life.
