A citizen in Japan ate free food worth millions of rupees by exploiting a flaw in a food delivery platform.

According to the South China Morning Post, a 38-year-old man from Nagoya, Japan, used a flaw in a platform called Demae-can to circumvent the refund policy and ate food worth $24,000 (6.746 million Pakistani rupees).

A man named Takuya Higashimoto would place orders on the platform and complain about not receiving the food even after receiving it in order to claim a refund. Over a period of two years, he received 1,095 orders.

The report said that Takuya (who has been unemployed for years) used to order expensive meals. He placed orders on Demae-can under 124 fake names that were registered with false addresses.

For the fake accounts, he would buy prepaid mobile phone cards with fake information and cancel them immediately after use.
