Victim whose phone got snatched by man on motorcycle steals robber's motorcycle

They got their own back in the best way.

A man decided to steal an unsuspecting guy's phone, but karma quickly came to bite him in the ass.

Mark Russel Zapata was walking down a street in Manila, Philippines, when he had his phone snatched off him.

Upon the attempt to rob his phone, Zapata and the robber ended up in an altercation.

While he didn't get his phone back, Zapata did manage to get his hands on keys of the suspect's motorbike.

He then took the bike and rode it to the local police station, leaving his cell - worth ₱10,000 ($555) - with the suspect.

He took the bike in the hopes of it preventing the suspect from fleeing the scene.

Police have since traced the owner to be someone in Bacoor, Cavite, but the suspect had reportedly been 'borrowing the vehicle'.

"This is a highly unusual case that we are dealing with now," Police Colonel Jaime Santos said of the incident.

"It’s something that only happens on TikTok.”

People have since praised Zapata for his quick thinking.

"Good JOB," someone penned on Facebook beneath a livestream taken at the police station where Santos explained the situation.

"That's a rare case," penned another.

"Kudos to you for your courage. It was right that you went to the police immediately."

While this guy decided to take the robber's motorbike in a bid to get his own back, one woman in New York took revenge to a whole new level after growing fed up of her neighbors taking her Amazon parcels.

Destiny, the woman's daughter, released a video on TikTok in 2021 explaining the situation she and her mother had been faced with.

The mother-daughter duo knew who was taking their parcels as they saw it for themselves on their Ring camera - but he didn't care.

So, to get revenge on the theft, Destiny's mom pooped in an Amazon box.

"This is my mom’s response back,” she explained in her TikTok video.

“She took a s**t on an Amazon box, covered it in a smiley face balloon and wrote a little message inside for the thief and then she re-taped the box to make it look like a regular Amazon box.”

Inside the box, Destiny's mom had written 'eat s**t' and 'come in this motherf**king gate again to see what awaits you'.

However, another thief took the box - but Destiny's mom was unfazed and simply said she'd crap in another box for the originally intended culprit.

I guess that's one way to stop people taking your deliveries.
