A food delivery rider posted on Facebook, sharing his experience with an unsavoury customer named Nisa Zee.
The customer allegedly lied to him that her order was paid for via credit card, even though it was a cash-on-delivery purchase.
The rider ended up having to pay more than $26 himself for the food.
This was apparently not the first time that the woman pulled off the scam, with at least 2 more screenshots detailing her orders from i.Tea and Eighteen Chefs.
How she pulled off the scam
She would make an order under cash-on-delivery, where the rider is required to collect cash payment from the customer upon delivery.
The woman then left an instruction to the rider to leave the food at the gate, so that he would think that there is no one home to receive it.
She would then inform the rider that there is a problem with the app, and that the food has already been paid for via credit card.

A 56-year-old man pleaded guilty to 4 counts of insulting a woman’s modesty and 2 counts of using criminal force.
He was sentenced to 11 weeks jail on 15 June for exposing himself repeatedly and stroking his genitals in front of his female tenant in 2018.
He was also fined $2,000 but will serve an additional 2 weeks in prison because he cannot pay the fine.
The man cannot be named due to gag orders to protect the identity of the victim.
He reportedly told the judge that he accidentally exposed himself to the woman because the wind had blown the toiler door open while he was using it.
He also claimed that he slipped on washing powder on the floor after showering, and hit himself after something caught on his towel, leading him to stroke himself because he was in pain.
What happened?
In May 2018, the man (who was the victim’s landlord) suddenly held her hand and asked her to eat, to which she said no.
Later that same month, he grabbed her hand when she walked past the sofa where he was sitting; the victim then flung his hand away and told him not to get touchy.
Some time around June to July 2018, the victim was walking out of the kitchen when she saw him standing in the toilet naked and stroking himself; the two made eye contact, after which she asked him what he was doing.
That same week, the victim was washing something in the kitchen when she turned around and saw the man completely naked.
She told him off but the man only smiled and said that he wanted to use the toilet to take a shower.
After 2 more incidents of indecent exposure, the victim confided in her friends, who eventually reported the incidents to the police on 23 December 2018.
The victim said that she was worried it would affect her work permit so she didn’t report the matter.
One week after reporting the incidents to the police, the man knocked on her room door and asked to talk to her, to which she then called the police and avoided meeting him.
The two were alone at home at the time.
The victim also recorded a conversation with the man; she asked him why he appeared in the nude behind her, the man said:
“You have not agreed to me for so long… When you don’t give the fish to the cat, what do you think it will feel? I am a man, you think I am made of wood, is it?“

MOE said in a press release that all Primary, Secondary and JC students will be going back to school progressively from 28 June onwards.
However, in a photo taken by MOE, eagle-eyed netizens noticed a girl at the back of the class secretly using her phone while the teacher was conducting his lesson.
The People’s Association (PA) released a statement on Facebook (14 June), responding to Sarah Bagharib and rejecting her accusations of racism, after the PA used her wedding photo as part of Hari Raya decorations, without her permission.
The PA used her wedding photo without permission and cut out her (and her husband’s) faces to use as photo stand-in as part of their Hari Raya decorations.
The PA then withdrew their offer of meeting up with Sarah because they believe that from her “actions”, her purpose of meeting them has gone “far beyond” the original incident.
Netizens were displeased with the PA, as a result.
Amin then shared the PA’s Facebook post, along with his two-cents on the matter:
A Facebook user then commented on Amin’s post and said that “just because you don’t see it as racist don’t mean the rest of us minorities have to agree with you. Stop being out of touch.”
To which Amin said:
Netizens then jumped to the Facebook user’s defence, condemning Amin’s behaviour and choice of words.

Phoon Chiu Yoke, 53-years-old, told the court on 15 June that she should be “granted immunity” because of the “past cases” that she faced while serving in the Singapore Armed Forces.
Once again, she highlighted to the court that she was a former naval officer with the Singapore Navy.
She said that she was an “eyewitness” to many “grave matters” in the SAF that she cannot disclose in a public court without “causing embarrassment to the SAF or the government”.
Phoon said:
“There were a few occasions when I was an ex-plaintiff to the SAF… so I cannot write representations to AGC (Attorney-General’s Chambers) without being prejudicial or causing embarrassment to SAF or the Government of Singapore.”
“Due to all these cases in the past I should be granted immunity as a citizen and as a ex-naval professional officer, it’s also not possible to take all these charges in court because it’s difficult to have a fair hearing because of all these cases.”
Phoon then highlighted that she was the “first female commanding officers” and she served 12 years in the Navy.
District Judge Janet Wong then said that her past SAF history was irrelevant.
Phoon then said that she begs to differ because of the “grave matters in the previous charges during her time in the SAF”.
