Thailand has become a fave tourist destination, especially for people from SA. With it being extremely affordable and no visas needed, it’s a hot destination that makes for awesome vaycay envy snaps to post on social media.
So, when people saw the deal claiming a trip for two to Phuket Thailand would cost them only R999, they jumped on it and did their due diligence. At first glance people called BS as there was no way, a trip could cost this little. You can’t even do a staycation for R999.
After some research people found that the deal came with a list of criteria which needed to be met in order for someone to purchase the deal. Daddy’s Deals stated the following:

The people of Mzansi roast Daddy’s Deals for advertising false dreams
While the deal seems legit, the criteria is crazy and seem more like a science experiment than an actual holiday. The people of SA went in hard at the company, calling them out on the false dream they are selling.

Mzansi roasts man for lying about brother’s luxurious crib, exposes old video: “You're from Groblersdal”
In other news, Briefly News reported that South African online users hilariously called out an online imposter who was caught in a lie about his "brother’s" accomplishments.
This was after the guy, @Abed_Nicee, took to social media to show off the fruits of his brother’s labour by sharing a video of a lavish mansion on Twitter. Little did he know that many Saffas have already seen the clip before, with one person even saying they had seen it on Pinterest about three years ago.
“My brother did a really good job. Congratulations to him,” the tweet was captioned.
