A man has shared a heartbreaking story of how he got scammed, leaving the internet in disbelief and anger.

Ordering things online, especially from random strangers, comes with a lot of risk.

Twitter user @_Rotimi77 shared screenshots of a conversation and the pillow he received instead of a laptop.

Having spent his hard-earned money, the man broke down in tears in the mall when he realised what had happened.

“I am so hurt. Ordered a laptop from this guy and yesterday I went to Mall to collect it at PEP. Almost broke down in front of people at the PEP Store when I felt the softness of the pillow in the parcel.”

People took to the comment section to express their disappointment. While some admitted this is the risk you take, their faith in humanity also dropped even further.

Read what some people had to say:

@Josha_btc was shocked: “Yooohhh living in SA is extreme sports.”

@gentlebjgiant wanted to help: “Where are you based? Do you have his number?”

@prow_II said: “I’m sorry about that man.”

@SboniseniGaxa shook his head: “Nawe how can you buy laptop from a stranger via Pep♂️”

Another Man Orders Sofa Online, Finds Toy

Previously, a young man got himself in an interesting situation after deciding to order a sofa he saw online going for a ridiculously low price.

Adu Kabena Alfred, a friend to the gentleman, indicated that the sofa was displayed on Kenyan Jumia for KSh 2800 and the young man took the opportunity to place an order for it.

The good was processed for close to a month and when it arrived, it turned out to be a tiny model of the sofa which was delivered to him on a motorbike.

Many netizens found the report hilarious.
