Woman dobs in drug dealer who sold her sugar instead of cocaine
A scorned woman fed up with her dishonest drug dealer has phoned police to dob them in after they gave her a bag of sugar instead of cocaine.
In a hilarious Facebook post, police in the city of Craigavon in Northern Ireland detailed the bizarre phone call they received on Friday.
When the emergency responder answered the phone, the caller told them: “I’ve been scammed.”
Police then asked if they had lost any money, to which the apparent victim responded: “Yeah I paid over £200 (AUD$366) and got brown sugar instead.”
“Instead of what?” police asked.
“Cocaine,” the caller said, leaving the officer speechless.
While it sounds like a joke, police insisted it was a real call, making way for hundreds of comments from amused Facebook users.
“Nothing beats a sugar high,” one person wrote, while another added: “Thought it was a sweet deal.”
“What is the world coming to when we can’t trust our friendly neighbourhood drug dealer?” one man said.
Police used the strange incident to try and locate other dodgy dealers.
“If you’ve been scammed by your dealer and would like pay back, call 101, PM (personal message) us, or phone Crimestoppers,” the officers wrote.
It is unclear what has become of the drug dealer.
