Amazon driver praised for following young boy's ridiculous delivery instructions

A baffled mum watched an Amazon delivery driver through her doorbell footage as they dropped off a package and sprinted away from her home - but she later discovered who was behind the odd scenario.

Mum Lynn Staffieri was left utterly confused when she witnessed an Amazon delivery driver's strange actions after she had received a notification through her Nest doorbell while she was out that somebody had been to the door. On it she saw the driver running away from her house. The device also sends her footage for home-monitoring and security.

The video she was sent had no audio, but when she returned home she reviewed the full clip to work out why the driver had fled so quickly after the 'weird' incident in Delaware, US.

And she quickly learned her young son had been behind it, having sneaked a very unique set of delivery instructions onto the Amazon order.

Before the order went out for delivery, under a box titled 'Do we need any additional instructions to find this address?', her son had written: "No but knock on the door 3 times and scream abra cadabra as loud as you can and run super fast away."

'I don't want children staying up late at weekends - I really need adult time''I don't want children staying up late at weekends - I really need adult time'

Incredibly, the clip shows the woman place the package on the porch before banging on the door and screaming the magical phrase before jumping down the steps and sprinting back to her van - exactly as instructed.

It's had more than two million views and 28,000 shares after Lynn posed it on Facebook, along with a screenshot of her son's instructions, with the caption: "Thank you to this great Amazon delivery woman!

"Apparently, my youngest son had put some 'additional instructions' for delivery and she went along with it.

"It made us smile even though my son should not have done that so I apologize for that.

"I do appreciate that the driver looked closely enough at the instructions though because I know a lot of people wouldn't."

Thousands of people praised the driver for her full commitment to the job, with many suggesting she had earned a raise and promotion.

One said: "Magnificent!! Everyone has been so grumpy over the last few months and this young lady (and your son) brightened all of our lives!! Thank you so much for sharing this!!"

Another wrote: "Hilarious! The driver was such a great sport about it too! Just great! Made my day!"

A third added: "Employee of the year."
