A woman has taken to social media to share the creepy text she received from a guy after he allegedly saw her luggage tag.
Now, traveling - especially flying - can come with many downsides; The delays, the subpar food, the moment you feel like a sardine as you're crammed onto a plane with far too many seats.
However, perhaps nothing is worse about traveling than the fact you're forced to be around strangers for a sustained period of time.
Don't believe me? Well, Kirsten's recent traveling story my change your mind.
Taking to TikTok (@kir.a.lo) to share her creepy experience, she explained that she had been waiting at an airport during a layover. That's when, in her own words: "The creepiest thing just happened to me."
As she appears to walk through the terminal, she explains to her followers: "I’m sitting there on my layover and I get this text."
Sharing a screenshot of the message, she reads it through: "‘Hi Kristen,’ which, that’s not even my name,” Kirsten says. "‘My name is Nate. I saw you and thought you were so beautiful so I had to find a way to talk to you. I saw your number on your luggage tag and decided to text you. I promise this isn’t as weird as it seems! Give a guy a chance?’"
To make matters more concerning, Kirsten revealed that she also had other personal information on her luggage tag, such as her address.
"He could potentially know where I live now," Kirsten says.
"PSA to everyone out there: Turn your luggage tag inside out so that your personal information isn’t visible," she added. "And PSA to all creepers: do better."
After amassing thousands of views, people flooded the comments section with their thoughts - as well as advice to anybody traveling.
"Luggage tags with covers only," one person stressed (add to cart). Others also suggested only adding an email address to your luggage tag.
Another added: "This is something that would never even cross my mind!!! That’s so scary."
"My jaw literally dropped. I'm horrified," wrote a third, with a fourth adding: "I am so sorry, this is so violating."
"Ladies these men are desperate. Be careful out there," one woman added.
A lesson to all the guys out there: Don't be like Nate. It's creepy.
