| He accessed to the internet on his laptop computer. He often used the internet to buy books, clothes, electric appliances, etcc On this day, he was browsing a website that he often used in order to buy a new type of wearable digital camera. He had been researching about this camera for a couple of months, and, he decided to buy that one. He proceeded to sign-in. The website asked him for his username and password. He opened his notebook in which there were a lot of usernames and passwords, because he was recommended to use a d
He flipped open the notebook, and found the user name and password for this website and punched them in. Usually, he double checked about the codes, but on this day he didn't because he was somehow tired of it. That was a big mistake. He mixed up the user name and password for this shop with ones of another shop, and ended up punching the wrong codes. Usually, these types of mistakes don't work; but, surprisingly the username and password that he punched in accidentally matched to somebody else's, and the screen proceeded to the next stage. He didn't realized it until he went to the last part when he was placing the order. Absent-mindedly, he looked at the place where his name and address were supposed to be, there was a different name and address. He became upset. This was the first time for him to have this type of situation. He thought, "If I make a wrong action now, will I be a criminal?" This idea made him more nervous and gave him the worst action; he pushed on the '1 click for purchase' button by mistake, confusing it with the 'return' button. He screamed out loud. He was going to push the 'cancel' button but he was too upset. Alas, he punched the '100 lot order for wholesalers' button instead. Soon he realized his mistake, and started to punch the 'cancel' button fiercely and repeatedly. But, it didn't work. The bar which showed 'proceeding with the purchase' was halfway completed. He pulled out the cords of his computer but it didn't work, because it was backed up by the battery. He pulled the LAN cable, but that didn't work either. The connection was changed into Wi-Fi automatically. The 'proceeding with the purchase' bar had almost reached completion. "Will I become a criminal? Do I have to go to a jail? At least I will have to pay a fine." This idea made him fearless and radical. He picked up a pair of big scissors from the pen stand on the desk and started to stab the computer. The keys of the keyboard were taken off and popped up. Soon after, with a strange noise, the screen blacked out. Breathing heavily, looking at the broken computer, he had no idea whether he made it in time or not. But, after a while, he came up with a second thought. He had ordered the 100 digital cameras using somebody's account and the 100 digital cameras would be sent to somebody's address. Somebody, of course, would say this was a complete mistake, he or she couldn't order this many for personal usage, maybe the company would believe it. The company might report it to the police, but nobody would know who ordered them. Actually, the police didn't come to his apartment. There was only a broken computer left on his desk. Now he was thinking whether to buy a new computer, or, maybe he should give computers up, at least for the time being. |
