A customer who felt like new leggings went to a shop and got herself one. However, she did it illegally.

In a TikTok video uploaded by @auntytinti_, a lady can be seen in one of South Africa's well-known clothing stores. As she was looking at the black leggings she liked, she noticed something weird.
