Burger King's shocker to its customers: Company sending blank order email receipt, but why?
As per the report, a lot of people who have received the emails do not even remember creating a Burger King account.
International fast food chain Burger King has randomly emailed thousands or millions of customers with a blank order email receipt leaving them confused.
The blank emails started appearing at around 12.15 a.m., leaving Burger King customers confused about whether the company has been breached by a hungry hacker attempting a midnight feast or if the emails are simply a giant whopper of a mistake, reports The Verge.
Twitter users quickly turned to the social network in a state of confusion over the blank emails, with some even receiving two Burger King emails in an apparent double whopper of a mistake.
The order emails are totally blank, and were sent by Burger King`s main promotional marketing email address, the report said.
However, there is no clear indication that Burger King has been breached.
As per the report, a lot of people who have received the emails do not even remember creating a Burger King account, so it could simply be a system change that went wrong and blasted out blank orders to Burger King`s entire marketing database.
