Man tricks woman with walkie-talkie prank in Asda car park

A man pranked a woman into thinking a car park's pay and display machine used facial recognition software, using a walkie-talkie.

TikTok user Daniel Green, 31, placed one walkie talkie on top of the pay and display machine, then waited in a van parked nearby with the other. A video shows a woman approaching the ticket machine, in the car park of the Asda store in Southport's Central 12 Shopping Park, and attempt to buy a ticket.

But painter and decorator Daniel used the walkie talkie to make it appears as if a voice was coming from the machine. He then told the woman he was recording her face, before asking her to perform various manoeuvres, including a side profile, back of the head and even a 360 shot.
