Summary
McDonald’s locations in Altoona, Pennsylvania, and Altoona, Iowa, were flooded with false 1-star reviews after the arrest of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson’s suspected killer at an Altoona, PA, McDonald’s.
Users posted claims of rats, poor service, and references to the employee who reported the suspect.
Some reviews mocked the arrest, calling the location “Narc-donalds” and joking about the staff’s actions.
The surge in reviews appears to be a mix of humor and criticism tied to the high-profile arrest.
I don’t think they want the identity of the rat getting out. I’m willing to bet that there are plenty of people who really want to publicly remind everybody that snitches get stitches. Word on the street is that this rat can suddenly afford a $60k hospital bill, unlike UHC customers whose claims get denied every day.
I guess getting two nights in a hospital is worth throwing a hero under a bus.
My bet: the rat don’t exist.
