“So, basically what I’m going to do is fill this box with trash and also a note that says ‘I’m onto you’ and then we’ll see if they steal it.

“There’s no way for me to know who’s stealing it but I just want them to know that I hate them.”

She continued: “Here is my lovely note that I’m going to include and I decided instead of trash I’m going to include some singles so they can buy their own packages.

The notes in the box said. “Stop stealing my packages, stealing makes you ugly. Here is some cash so you can buy your own stuff.”

The box was filled with rubbish along with numerous $1 notes.

Lin videoed her revenge plot and posted it to social media, receiving close to one million views.

Despite it surging in popularity, some viewers were torn over her decision to give the thief $1 notes.

“Why would you add money?” One person questioned. “If I was them that would make me want to steal your packages even more lol.”

“You take revenge by giving money to the stealers???? Girl-” A second commented followed by crying emojis.

A third suggested they should have used fake notes, writing: “Should have put monopoly money instead of real money.”
