So this story is from a reddit user whose home number was mistakenly advertised by a hometown pizza place as it was very closely similar to the actual number. Their family would get calls in the middle of the night and upon telling the customers they are not the pizza place, they would get threatened and harassed as people would get offended by the wrong number crazy scenario.
After sometime, the same pizza shop released an ad with the same wrong number, imagine the audacity. The reddit user’s father called the manager and addressed him of the issue but he handled it very rudely which infuriated the user’s family. They then took this to another level of revenge and started taking fake orders from people which started to come as the restaurant’s demise. You must check what happened in the end, as it is worth reading. Scroll down till the end to get a lesson about running a business.

Well, to me, whatever it caused for the restaurant to close was due to their own actions. If they had dealt the matter wisely in the first place, nothing such would happen. The family tried reaching them twice to thrice but they did not do anything so this appears a fair game. I am really amazed on the father’s plan of taking fake orders. Well, that really taught the restaurant manager a lesson. Tell us in the comment section what do you think about the story. ever had a similar experience? Do not forget to mention it in the comments.
