is this a real thing wtf
To the best of my knowledge, yes.
It's as real as razor blades in apples on Halloween, or cheap red Corvettes in which the owner died and lay rotting for weeks, so that the smell won't come out.
Given this is NY Post, not known for good journalism, you are probably right.
The article has the author listed - Emily Lefroy. The article names the source - @boogeyman0302 The article claims the man was talking with his brother — who works in law enforcement - to add credibility.
Snopes says Bullshit - https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/zip-ties-cars-mailboxes/#:~:text=One%20such%20story%20went%20viral%20in%20October%202018,when%20the%20women%20try%20to%20remove%20the%20ties.
Is this a Halloween Prank?
Dude. Obvious troll is obvious. Hell, his user name is "boogieman".
Yes, Ardvarcus clued me in later, then I found the story line on Snopes. I should have know better because it's NYPost. Apparently a NYPost Halloween prank. Pretty sick of them to joke about this subject.
