Getting cold feet before a date is normal. Sometimes, the anxiety might even get so bad you decide to cancel. This Indian man, however, decided to cancel with a plan that sounds more at home in a sitcom. Or an action movie.
And he wasn’t even getting cold feet.
32-year-old man Motaparthi Vamshi Krishna went for the classic terror-hoax-to-cancel-flight method of avoiding a date. His girlfriend, whom he had met online, requested for a vacation with him to Mumbai and Goa. He was in Hyderabad and she was in Chennai.
Unfortunately, he had no money for the flight tickets.
At this point, any other sane person would probably admit that he couldn’t afford air tickets and that a vacation was probably not a very good idea.
Krishna was not a sane person.
He had emailed the girl a fake plane ticket flying from Chennai to Mumbai and hatched a convoluted plan to get the heat off his back, by making a terrorist attack hoax to get the fake flight cancelled.
It was the perfect plan.
He made a fake email address, then sat down at an Internet café, and conjured up the most convincing story you’ll have ever read. He even pretended to be a woman.
“hi sir am female here am doing this mail frim Hyderabad as i don’t want to revel my details couse am a female and scared of issues, and mailing u this couse in the after noon around 2pm while having lunch there were 6 guys talking those guys are musclims, they were talking abt plane hijack tommarrow in Hyderabad chennai and Mumbai airport they were talking very slowly but unfortunately i heard few conversations abt this, they were saying all us 23 people have to split from here and have to board flights in 3 cities and hijack them at a time. They spoke some other things also but i couls not hear them as i heard only these few sentences from them, i dont know do am i doing correct or not and they are true or not but heard this so kindly go through this and as i informed this as a duty and a citizen of india and pls dont make me to get into issues.”
You just read the original email. Truly deserving of a Pulitzer prize, that one.
The police took it seriously at first, beefing up security at the airports, then upon further investigation, they tracked the IP address of the email to an Internet Café.
Shortly after, Krishna was identified on the CCTV footage and arrested.
He was arrested on 4 charges, including impersonation, and providing false information.
And you know what makes the story even better? Krishna was married the whole time, and both of them have a child.
Cheat also cheat until like that. Power lah.
