SA woman confronts debtor at UK airport over money

The influencer added that the individual owed her money over an eight-period timeframe and has accrued a lot of interest.

"I cannot have you go on holiday like you're going to come back with more and more debts. I cannot do that to you."

@ukthanos went on to say that she would be waiting for the woman to arrive for her check-in so she could confront her head-on, demanding answers and urging her to do the right thing.

While taking to her TikTok caption, @ukthanos simply said:

"Prevention is always better cure."

The clip has since sparked a wider conversation about personal loans, trust, and the lengths people are willing to go to reclaim what they’re owed.
