Flight Centre agent plays funny prank on man who lost ID
A Flight Centre agent has played a funny prank on a man who lost his identification after a rowdy night out, sending in a letter in the mail that appeared to be a booking confirmation for first class return flights to the Maldives.
After losing his ID on a night out on the town, UK resident Will Armstrong was shocked to discover a letter in the mail which made him believe someone had used his mislaid license to book the first-class flights, worth £5,000 ($A8,500).
Fortunately, Armstrong quickly found out that it was a ruse from a cheeky Flight Centre travel agent, named Steve, who had found the missing ID just outside his store.
Armstrong tweeted images of the prank, and even popped instore to visit Steve, which have since been retweeted more than 60,000 times around the world.
