Un homme s’amuse à cacher des billets dans les rues à Nice, en Provence-Alpes-Côte-d’Azur. Il se filme sur les réseaux sociaux, sans montrer son visage.

He started "treasure hunts" on his Instagram account. SKN made itself known in the last weeks of June 2024 by hiding, on several occasions, notes of 10 euros, 20 euros or even 50 euros.

To get your hands on the tickets, you have to be quick. Wednesday June 19 2024, the ticket hidden by SKN was recovered in just three minutes by Luisa and her children. "I feel lucky. A stroke of luck, I was looking at the phone and as we don't live far away, we took advantage with the children. They ran", she says, quoted by BFM.

With its 14,800 subscribers, SKN says it wants to remain anonymous, while getting people talking about it. "I decided to please people with the money I had left at the end of the month", explains- it is the 24/7 news channel. The influencer offered nearly 500 euros in one month.

This practice is increasing on social networks. At the end of March, in Lille, a thirty-year-old, identified under the pseudonym "Lille CacheCash" also hid tickets in the streets and invited his subscribers to find them.

Content creators from all over the world are having fun hiding posts on Instagram or TikTok. For the most part, underlines BFM, they get by financially thanks to remuneration for their video content and commercial collaborations.

The concept has been taken up by several people in France, notably in Rennes, Reims and now in Lyon and Nice.
