A man has been apprehended for eating at KFC free for a year, smartly lying that the head office sent him to taste if the food is of quality.

The 27-year-old University of KwaZulu Natal student fooled KFC employees around Durban, South Africa into thinking he was sent from KFC headquarters for quality assurance.

Unknown to the employees, his convincing and smart moves were just to rob them.

“When he arrived we all try to act our best so that we don’t piss off the man from head office. He was so convincing because he was so confident and even colleagues from other KFC’s knows him,” a KFC staffer said.

It’s alleged that the man would arrive in a Limousine driven by his friend, very smartly dressed with a name tag labeled “head office”.

The nervous KFC workers would be at his beck and call, adhering to all his demands with no suspicion whatsoever.

“When he comes in he rushes to the kitchen and checks everything taking notes and then asks for samples of whatever he wants. He probably worked for KFC before because he knows everything,” said one of the employees.
