The young boy managed to get onto his father's Grubhub account and ordered huge amounts of food.

Keith said: "I was putting Mason to bed and saw a car pull up and the doorbell rang with the driver dropping off a big bag of stuff."

"My wife owns “A Slice of Heaven Cakes” bakery and it was a big wedding weekend, so I thought it was just someone dropping off decorative stuff they used from her. But it was from Leo’s Coney Island. I said, 'What the heck?'"

"The doorbell rang again and it kept happening. Car after car. Cars were pulling into the driveway while others were pulling out. I finally asked one of them what they were delivering. He said we ordered chicken shwarmas. I took the food and then it hit me."

"I looked at my phone with repeated messages that my food was getting ready, my food was being delivered. I looked at my bank account and it was getting drained."

Keith said that he desperately tried to cancel the orders but could not.

Mountains of pizzas, shrimp, salads and sandwiches arrived to an increasingly furious Keith, making him rethink if Mason's treat before bed (his phonetime) had been taken quite literally and massively by his six-year-old.
