Sweet revenge

Oddity Central reported a person suspected to be a scorned ex placed more than 50 cash-on-delivery orders on a food delivery app, all to be delivered at the same time to a woman’s home in Izmir, Turkey.

The food was ordered from different restaurants, and the prankster used a conspicuously fake phone number, but many of the restaurants didn't confirm it.

Passers-by took videos of the more than two dozen delivery drivers crowded at the apartment building’s entrance around 9 p.m., waiting for payment.

All the orders were returned, but most of the food had to be discarded.
