The complaint said he changed prices, added profanity and replaced fonts in the menu software, and locked some employees out of their computers.
ORLANDO, Fla. — A Disney World employee fired in June was arrested last week and accused of hacking into menu-creation software used by the company’s restaurants to falsely show that certain food items didn’t contain peanuts.
The complaint does not mention Disney World by name but his lawyer, David Haas, said in a statement to the Orlando Sentinel that Scheuer was employed there and has a disability that impacted his termination. The complaint said it’s believed altered menus were isolated before they could be shipped out to restaurants, but Disney was still working to identify all of them. Scheuer’s alleged actions are estimated to have caused at least $150,000 in damages.
