Swiggy Instamart User Asks Gemini Nano To Crack 20 Eggs In Tray, Gets Full Refund: ‘Fraud Will Scale Faster Than Revenue’
Swiggy Instamart User Asks Gemini Nano To Crack 20 Eggs In Tray, Gets Full Refund: ‘Fraud Will Scale Faster Than Revenue’
Artificial intelligence (AI) has reached a point where almost anything can be recreated with shocking accuracy, and social media is full of examples. Google's new imaging tool, Nano Banana Pro, can create pictures so realistic that many people cannot tell whether they are real or fake. A recent example shared online shows how this technology is being misused. A person ordered eggs on Instamart and found only one egg cracked. Instead of filing a normal complaint, they used AI and typed “apply more cracks."
Within seconds, the tool changed the image to show more than twenty cracked eggs that looked completely real. The support team saw the photo, believed it to be true and issued a full refund without hesitation. This incident has made many people think about how easy it has become to fool refund systems that still work on trust-based image proof. If more people start doing this, companies offering fast delivery may face huge losses. The real challenge now is upgrading verification systems to match the speed of AI.
Instamart Support Issued Refund After Believing Edited Egg Photo
The image posted on X (Formerly Twitter) came with the caption, “Someone ordered eggs on Instamart and only one came cracked. Instead of just reporting it, they opened Gemini Nano and literally typed: ‘Apply more cracks. In a few seconds, AI turned that tray into 20+ cracked eggs — flawless, realistic, impossible to distinguish. Support took one look at the ‘proof,' processed a full refund and moved on."
“Just pause and think about that. Our refund systems were built for a world where photos were trustworthy. But now they're up against 2025-level AI and they're getting absolutely destroyed. If even 1% of people start doing this, quick-commerce unit economics won't just suffer, they'll implode. AI isn't the villain here. The real problem is verification systems stuck in the past. Welcome to the era of AI vs AI," the individual added.

Social Media Suggests Safety Steps For Deliveries
Reacting to the post, a user wrote, “Most AI-generated photos may soon include hidden signatures. Many companies that create AI images and videos are expected to embed such markers, making it harder for the human eye to detect whether an image is real or not. But when you create an image using Gemini, it leaves a visible Gemini mark on the right side."
Another suggested, “Open box delivery with GoPro should be common for all delivery folks now."
“Just a low trust society, trying to scam a company because they feel they are entitled to refunds," a comment read.
An individual stated, “When proof becomes editable, trust becomes a vulnerability. One fake refund doesn't matter. Millions will break the business. This isn't about cracked eggs. It's about cracked systems."
Another mentioned, “Google-generated AI images use SynthID, and you can upload to Gemini to check whether it's AI-generated or not. Every e-commerce and q-commerce platform will have to integrate it sooner."
One more added, “Free money glitch."
