No one would start intentionally shopping for a phone priced that high just by looking at this ad. It has to be a more literal clickbait.
UPDATE: I did not consider the currency. The number of responses mentioning currency tells me that's what I overlooked. I am no longer even mildly infuriated and am therfore a liar 😅
Maybe dad should have a passcode on his phone and banking apps? Literally no one can “get their mitts” on my phone and use it without my consent short of holding a gun to my head. So many of these parents seem to handwave responsibility from fictional scenarios.
Hello Armchair Parent! And welcome.
Plenty of actual parents relate to dropping whatever they're doing to find out why kids 1 and 2 are screaming in another room (argument, saw a spider, "play" screaming, who knows). That gives an eternity of time to a mischievous 2yo kid #3 to grab the shiny toy so carelessly dropped without being locked GASP! and then tap not just twice but >100 times.
Factor in a parent being a normie mobile user whose browser already has permission to open Amazon links in their Amazon app, and then it's only a matter of the 2yo clicking big cartoony button "Buy Now" and then big cartoony button "Place Order" but hey what are the chances of that :P
See my hand wave remark. I may not have kids but am old enough that a few of my mates are starting. I’ll ask one if he thinks this series of incredibly unlikely events (that ignore lock after time limit, face ID for payment methods, common sense) would work with his child but I suspect the response will be laughter.
Far more likely is people giving these devices to children inappropriately and them figuring this stuff out rather than kids “mashing buttons” into purchasing things from Amazon. Do appreciate the classic “yOu MuSt NoT hAvE kIDs” response to literally any form of parental criticism though.
"But I learned it from you!" 😭
I don’t see how those statements are incongruent or worthy of being particularly funny. Must be a parent thing I guess.
