Brooklyn Shadchan
Some stories are too good to be true. Then again, some are true anyways.
A friend called me up, and told me that his 28 year old recently engaged sister just received a call from her Shadchan. The Shadchan was irate and threatening. Apparently, the sister had given the Shadchan a $1,000 prize for the fix up. And the Shadchan demanded $2,000. This was apparently an injustice for the Shadchan to tell the sister that the Shadchan would call the Chasson and tell his family that the Kallah was a liar. And of course, at 28, the Kallah is petrified of losing her beloved. So the extortion works.
