Villagers in Cyffylliog in Denbighshire, said a stream of cars have recently come through the area and a milk tanker became stuck after Google Maps said Aldi had a store there. The village has a population of about 500 and while some residents acknowledged the funny side of the mishap, others said it was very "serious".

A joker single-handedly added an Aldi branch in Wales on Google Maps. And this was followed quite immediately by a rush of motorists, and even an Aldi milk vendor got stuck in the small agricultural road in this remote corner of Wales.

Shoppers and a delivery driver have been left short-changed after they headed to a phantom Aldi store deep in the countryside. The driver of a large milk tanker that became stranded was among the victims deceived by the ‘pin’ in rural north Wales.

Residents say a fake Aldi placed on Google Maps caused a stream of cars to travel to their village.
