Krasnoyarsk Girl Gets iPhone 16 After Machine Mix-Up
The game machine owner gifted a phone to the nine-year-old girl after the incident.
A nine-year-old Krasnoyarsk girl, who pulled chocolate instead of an iPhone 16, was given a phone. This was done by the owner of the game machine, writes TVK.
Colleagues published a video where the girl with an iPhone stands near the game machine, and then unpacks it at home.
— «Show the phone,» says a man in the video.
*the girl shows the phone*
— «Wow! How do you like it?»
— «Yes.»
— «Everything good? You»re not upset anymore?«
*the girl shakes her head*
— »Super, smart girl.«
The girl«s grandmother told about the situation. The child played for a long time in the machine in the store on Partizana Zheleznyaka Street, 12 in Krasnoyarsk — one game costs 50 rubles (approximately $0.56 at current rates). After a series of losses, she managed to pull a phone. However, the box contained chocolate. As compensation, the girl»s family received a thousand rubles (approximately $11 at current rates).
Rospotrebnadzor (the Russian consumer rights watchdog) became interested in the situation, and a correspondent for NGS24.RU noticed a directive on a similar game machine located in the Lenta hypermarket. It required their removal, as the use for gambling, including with money, is illegal.
