Student Pretends To Be Quality Control Officer For KFC, Ate Free Fried Chicken For A Year

Love eating KFC? We found someone who might love it more than you.

In fact, he love it so much, he's willing to go to jail for it.

A 27-year-old student from the University of KwaZulu-Natal in South Africa was arrested for fooling KFC workers and eating at the fast food restaurant for free for a year!

According to a report by Metro UK, the student claimed to have been sent by the KFC headquarters for quality checks and ate his way through different KFC outlets for a year without paying a single cent.

The news website said the unnamed student would flash an ID card that read 'head office' and the KFC staff fell for it every time.

A KFC staff revealed that the conman was "so convincing because he was so confident" and "he knows everything".

The student, who is now been hailed as a genius by Netizens, has since been arrested.

The unusual news was first shared by Kenyan journalist Teddy Eugene on his official Twitter account.
