A mystery drone is dropping rolls of cash on Americans. Not everyone seems happy, but at least one police officer doesn't seem to mind!
A drone called the "302 Cashcopter" – pilot unnamed – is dropping cash on people in Delaware (and catching videos of the recipients' reactions).
A drone operating in Delaware has been dropping $100 bills on unsuspecting citizens in an effort to spread positivity, according to The Daily Mail. The drone's operator, who works in IT and makes drops during lunch breaks and evenings, previously used his own funds but now runs a fund for the cash. The drops come with a card that reads "You caught today's drop.
Cash inside – it's yours," explaining why one person appears to accept the cash with a thumbs-up in a recent video. One recipient who happens to be a police officer seems to take the cash without any issues, posting a video of the drop with the caption, "This drop happened to find someone with a badge." While the drone pilot's intentions are to spread kindness, some concerns have been raised about the potential for the drops to be misconstrued as bribery, even if it's not intended to be one.
The operator hopes the drops will inspire people to be kinder to one another and spread positivity in their own ways.
