A Melbourne woman was thrust into the spotlight after a TikToker performed a “random act of kindness” to her. But she’s not so pleased about the online attention — nor is she impressed with the inauthentic gift.
In the video, TikToker Harrison Pawluk asks a stranger in a public shopping area to hold a bouquet of flowers while he puts on a jacket. Instead of asking for the flowers back, he then wishes her a good day and leaves. The clip shows Maree throwing her head back, and the dramatic music leads you to think she’s overwhelmed with gratitude. But in reality, she reports feeling more annoyed than touched. The video has nearly 60 million views and 11 million likes. “I hope this made her day better ❤️,” says the caption.
