TikTok users are stunned to hear the story of a mother who found an unknown man messaging ‘nasty’ things to her 16-year-old daughter thanks to Uber Eats.
Ever since social media platforms have taken over the internet it has become a struggle for many parents to keep their children safe from internet nightmares. Recently, a TikTok user, Beki Giunta, decided to share her story to warn other parents.
Uber Eats helps mom find out about ‘nasty’ messages
Taking to TikTok, Beki recalled in a video that she recently received an Uber Eats package at her door and was surprised as she hadn’t ordered it. She then went to her 16-year-old daughter to ask about the delivery and the daughter informed her that she received the food for free after entering a code on Uber Eats.
As expected, Beki was stunned to hear this and decided to look into her daughter’s phone to understand more details. She then found out that a man had been texting her daughter and had allegedly asked her to call him “bad names” and say “nasty things” in exchange for gifts or free delivery from Uber Eats.
Beki found out that her daughter’s friend had shared the man’s information which led to other’s using it to get free stuff as well.
Beki Giunta reported the messages to the police
Beki was worried about what could have happened as the man had their address. To ensure they were on the safe side, she didn’t waste a second and rushed to the police station to show them the messages.
“They were pretty concerned about it because now this guy has my address. We did not sleep for weeks because we were worried this man was going to break in,” she said. Luckily, the family is alright.
She advised other parents to be careful and keep an eye out for such social media posts.
