I ordered a $32 dinner online.
The delivery driver handed me two bags.
I assumed the restaurant had made a mistake.
Then I looked inside.
There was my food.
And underneath it was an envelope containing $18,000 in cash.
I froze.
I checked the receipt.
My name was on the order.
The food was correct.
But the cash definitely wasn't mine.
I immediately called the restaurant.

HR: We believe employees work best when they’re trusted.
Me: That’s good to hear.
HR: That’s why we’re introducing a flexible work policy.
Me: Great.
HR: You can work from anywhere.
Me: Perfect.
HR: As long as you’re in the office.
Me: That’s not anywhere.
HR: We mean anywhere within the office.
Me: So you renamed the office?
HR: It’s about flexibility.
Me: No.
It’s about finding new words for the same policy.

I almost got scammed for $500 on a marketplace app today.
The scammer didn't use a bot. They used a genius psychological trick that nearly worked.
