From the time we order something online till the time it actually arrives, we all obsessively think about it. But imagine how angered and frustrated you will be if your package arrives and gets stolen? That is what happened with a woman in Colorado Springs, USA but she had the perfect revenge planned for the thieves.?
KKTV reported that as many as 20 packages of Christine Hyaat were stolen from her porch. She was obviously furious. Angered by the whole thing, she decided to give the thieves a taste of their own medicine. She packed trash and garbage in carton boxes and kept them on the porch.
We forgot to set our trash out for Thanksgiving, so we were overflowing with trash,¡± she told KKTV. ¡°I have had packages stolen and I went, ¡®You know what? I have extra boxes ¡ª let¡¯s see if someone will take our trash!¡±
She packed all the sh*t from her house, literally- from food trash to cat litter. And she packed this all up in delivery boxes. Unsurprisingly, the robbers took her bait.?
KKVT reporter Spencer Wilson tweeted, ¡®You¡¯re looking at two decoy packages left out for porch pirates. This Colorado Springs mom says she¡¯s had it with packages being swiped from her home, so she set out boxes filled with used kitty litter. It¡¯s her third round of fakes. She expects they will be gone in hours¡¯.?
Even though most people lauded her ¡®revenge idea¡¯ some people online suggested that she should probably get cameras installed to catch the thieves. This is actually a good suggestion, because let¡¯s admit, it might be all fun and games to fool the thieves but she ain¡¯t getting her parcels back unless she knows who took them. Neither does it solve the problem of the future when her ¡®actual¡¯ packages might get stolen.
