A Kentucky boy secretly ordered 70,000 Dum-Dum lollipops on his mom’s Amazon account, creating a $4,200 surprise and a mountain of candy. The Kentucky boy’s Dum-Dum lollipop order quickly became the talk of the town, fulfilling every child’s wildest sugar-fueled fantasy—and every parent’s online shopping nightmare.

In the aftermath of the Kentucky boy's Dum-Dum lollipop escapade, his mother, Holly LaFavers, managed to intercept some shipments at the post office and return them. After a challenging day dealing with her bank and speaking with media outlets, she successfully secured a refund from Amazon. To prevent future mishaps, she updated her phone's security settings.
