83-year-old typed in wrong number when making digital payment then disappeared for more than a week. Honest bakery boss launches search for customer, alerts police before elderly man returns and gets his money back.
The plight of an elderly man in China who paid a bakery 5,555 yuan for six flatbreads which should have cost him just five yuan has shocked mainland social media.
He realised instantly that one of his customers had typed in the wrong amount when making a digital payment. With no access to the payer’s information other than the name of the bank via which the payment was made, Zhang decided to wait.However, three days passed and no-one showed up, so Zhang became anxious.
Zhan said WeChat payment customer service had called him that morning to point out his mistake and it was then when he realised he had paid far too much for the “buy five get six flatbreads deal”.
