6-year-old girl manages to buy toys on Amazon with sleeping mum’s thumbprint

This is one sneaky child!

When we were younger I remember being extremely bold and taking a few cents to get sweets at the shop, but this story is on a totally different level. According to Buzzfeed, one little girl went way above the means to get what she wanted. Bethany Howell was watching a film with her 6-year-old daughter Ashlynd when she fell asleep, but little did she know the trouble Ashlynd would get up to while she was having a quick snooze. Bethany explained how she found the horrifying discovery on her phone.

"Probably about four or five minutes into the movie, I fell asleep unintentionally...And that’s when she got on my phone." "I said, ‘What are you talking about? I didn’t purchase anything...We thought we’d been hacked at first."

The next day, Bethany, still curious about where the $250 on Amazon had gone as she or her husband hadn't spent anything, asked her daughter about it.

"She said, ‘Yeah mommy! I was shopping. But don’t worry, all of it is going to come straight to the house...

"Then I asked her, ‘How’d you get into my phone? Did you remember my code? And she said ‘No, I used your thumb."

Ashlynd managed to order herself 13 toys in total, only 4 of which were returnable. Bethany said that Ashlynd was taught to ask for permission in future, but we can only imagine her rage at an accidental spending of nearly $300.
