Why do people feel compelled to show everybody what they’re eating?

Personally, I don’t think that theft is a “prank”.

I’m curious. I’ve never ordered or paid via QR code before. Is that even a thing in the US yet?

Anyway - I’m guessing his bill was still open when he took those pics? And scammers used that open bill to order more food?

Or did all this ordering take place AFTER the bill was paid and closed?

I’d hate to think I’d be done with paying only to discover a QR code could still be used to order and charge more.

I’ll often take a picture of a meal before I’ve eaten it if I plan to Google Review the restaurant later.

No kidding.

When Facebook was down, I was devastated because I couldn’t post pictures of my eggs and toast for the world to see. /s

Agree.

No, it’s NOT a prank. It’s outright theft.

LOL!

What is this obsession with sharing pictures of your food?

Paying cash is always a good idea.

But was the sushi fresh?

I have to admit, I take a few food pics, but don’t share them on social media much.

I don't know, what's the definition of fresh?

Sounds like a question one would ask his girl friend...............

They need to track down the phones where these orders came from and make them pay
