When this British woman learned the disappointing truth behind a strange £50 bill left on her car, she couldn’t believe it.

The internet cracks the case wide open
A lot of people were shocked at the audacity that the perpetrator had to only leave £50 instead of their insurance details.
But others were skeptical about the whole situation, especially as it was posted by a body shop.
Some thought the video might have even been nothing more than a marketing ploy to create engagement.
One thing is for certain though, when something is usually left on your windshield, it’s never a good sign.
