No one likes getting a parking ticket, but residents of Asheville, North Carolina, are dealing with a prankster that is leaving fake parking tickets everywhere.
While the normal fine is $10, these fake parking tickets tell victims to fork over $100 instead.
They even look completely legit, so it’s easy to see why some of this prank’s victims have been tricked.
The thing about these fake parking tickets is that they come with a QR code, and you probably won’t believe where it takes you to. Let’s first read what Ken Putnam, Asheville’s transportation director, told WLOS about this code: “It was kind of surprising to go to a link for a YouTube video, and then when I went it was featuring some rock star that I didn’t know who it was.”
That “rock star” Putnam was talking about? This guy:
Yep, all these prank victims are being rickrolled. This code takes you to Rick Astley’s now classic “Never Gonna Give You Up.”
Hey it beats being scammed out of $100.
