				Holly LaFavers says she tried stopping 8-year-old Liam's Amazon 
				order for about 70,000 Dum-Dum suckers before the treats arrived 
				but it was too late.
 Amazon had already delivered 22 cases to her home.
 
 “He told me that he wanted to have a carnival, and he was 
				ordering the Dum-Dums as prizes for his carnival,” LaFavers 
				said. "Again, he was being friendly, he was being kind to his 
				friends.”
 
 The surprise got worse after a quick check of her bank account. 
				She owed about $4,000 for the order.
 
 “When I saw what the number was, I just about fainted,” LaFavers 
				said.
 
 Then she found out that eight more cases from the order were 
				unaccounted for, she said. After a trip to the post office, 
				those cases were returned to sender, she said.
 
 Her efforts to get a refund took a bit more time but she got her 
				money back.
 
 “After a long day of working with the bank and talking to a few 
				news stations Amazon called and they are refunding my money,” 
				she said in a social media post.
 
 LaFavers said she was changing some settings on her phone to 
				make sure there's never another surprise delivery at home.
