A hawker took to Facebook to appeal for help clearing some 150 sets of unsold nasi briyani, after a bulk order made by someone claiming to be from the Singapore Armed Forces (SAF) was not picked up.Muhammad Shazain Faiha Muslim Food Paradise, a hawker stall in Tiong Bahru Market, posted a request to Facebook on Tuesday (Sept 9) for people to buy its nasi biryani.According to the post, the stall was «scammed with a fake order of 150 packets of chicken and mutton briyani».The person who made the order claimed to be an «SAF representative» and told the hawker he was unable to put down a deposit for the order, as «the military is a government agency and therefore cannot provide a deposit». He also asked for bottles of mineral water, according to 8World.The hawker had given the man a discount for the food and increased the amount of meat and rice in each serving, after learning that the food would be distributed to soldiers. When nobody arrived to collect the order, the hawker realised he had been scammed, according to the Chinese news outlet. Read more
