Repairman finds shocking note in damaged iphone

An iPhone repairman got more than he bargained for after finding a $100 bill and a surprising note inside a device he was fixing.

The technician shared a clip to TikTok sharing the shocking note he found inside the phone cover, after a bloke came in and dropped off his mobile for what seemed like a routine repair.

The phone expert says: “So this customer and his wife came in earlier and they gave me his phone to fix.

“I was like ‘all right, give me an hour, I’ll finish it for you’.

“Anyway, I came in the back, I opened it up and this is what I found inside.”

Inside the case was $100, and a note pleading not to fix the phone.

The message said: “Please tell my wife the phone is unfixable.

“She wants to check the phone history. $100 dollars is yours, thanks.”

The repairman captioned the video “unbelievable” and “can’t believe he did that”, as he asked his followers: “What do you guys think I should do?”

A third commented: “Just give it back broken with the note and money in hand with it and tell him I found the problem but I can’t fix that.”

This person thought: “It’s technically his phone. Not hers. Do what he says.”

Horrified, this person pleaded: “What is wrong with people saying you should tell her. Please don’t tell her and keep the 100 save his marriage.”
