From the Zedium podcast network, it's Fletchforn and Haley's Little Bit of Pod. Welcome to A Little Bit of Pod. Guys, the other day, I was at home and my friend messaged me and just said, he had forwarded a, do you know those people online that leave money around the place? And then they post it. Yes, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. And people find it. Yes.

He said, oh my God, this is right next to your house in a little park. And I was like, oh, my God. And I, like, watched it. And he's like, yeah. So because I recognized it, because I know, like, your place, I just went and got it and I just got 50 bucks. And I was like, what? There was $50 outside my house, and I had no idea.

I've been seeing these recently, and they're popping up in using it. And they get, like, duct tape of 50. What is the vibe behind you? So you follow them so you know where they're going to, so you have a better chance of knowing where the cash is going to be. I'm like, this page that he sent me didn't even have, like, I wouldn't have said it's like hundreds or tens of thousands of followers. And so I don't, because I want to know, how do they make their money?

These, like, what followers? It'll be like this $50 is brought to you by. Yeah, maybe. Hang on, I've got the, what he's tomato sauce. So the one that he sent me was KiwiVolt. They've got 8,000 followers. Yeah. And then they just go around the, I mean, maybe, you actually, just looking at some of their posts,

they probably spam you with a few ads and ads. Oh, right. So it's spammed. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. The craze of people hiding. Oh, yeah, see, here's a little, I don't know.

Anyway, wild, though, eh? That's so fun. I've never recognised a spot. And on the thing, it says, like, they've got $50,000 to give away. This is insane. And I've seen so many of these different accounts. And they just duct tape it. And look, you can see the seat there.

That's by... Oh, I know that. Show me? You know where that is. It's the tree. I've had to climb over that fucking tree every time I come to your house. I know. Parks, and I have to park up the road.

Then it fell over and then... And then, but people don't want to come it down. As they are want to do. As they are want to do. I said an old lady try to get over that tree and it was quite funny. I saw an old lady go under that tree. But anyway, so my friend who works up the road was like, well, I know exactly where that is it comes down and gets it.

And I'm like, you mother. That could have been you. It could have been me. They weren't following the page hot. I don't follow it, yeah. It's super engaging content. It triggers something inside the human mind that it's the curiosity and the treasure hunt because everyone loves a treasure hunt.

Yes. UGC, which is people posting themselves finding it. comments shares the algorithm loves that big creators are using it as lost leading PR famous examples Mr Beast and other YouTubers spend big on giveaways because the viewers and the brand lift far outweigh the cash given away of course we know that

that's how you spend money to make money It's an attention magnet. It's sort of an influencer school by Vaughn Smith that sells other stuff me and chat jevety put our minds together more followers more merch sales so it's like more subscribers more everything more higher rates for brand deals etc etc and apparently these accounts

gather followers very quickly Right. But I would understand if a brand was doing it, but how do you get $50,000? I don't know. When you're like got $8,000. Sponsored, hashtag sponsor, I guess. So there are, throughout the history of the hidden cash events,

there have been scams and authenticity doubts of people are like, I've hidden $10,000 and it makes people go crazy and share it and follow it and everything. And they fake a win? They fake a win. The person who finds that has been somehow linked to the account as well, like the 10,000 was never really up for grabs. It was pre-filmed.

Okay. I wouldn't rely on it for your riches, you know what I mean? No. But, yeah, I mean, my friend showed me the 50 and I was like, you... Little 50 is nice. How nice is a $50 note? It's lovely. It's perfect.

It's beautiful, purple, delicious. You can buy something like quite nice with it, but it's not, you know, it's not like... You chip away with a few coffees and treats. Yeah. And if you've got $500 in 50s, you've got 10 of them. Yeah. Give it up. And if you use one of them, you still got $4.50 and that's nice.

Yeah. And if you use one of them, then the people, then the people. person at the shop looks at it like we don't get many 50s in here yeah and you're like well I'm doing well for myself but it's not quite a hundred yeah I'm doing well for myself I follow an account and I found their lost money yeah
