Shein shoppers 'scared' after finding 'disturbing' note inside her parcel

A SHEIN customer was patiently arriving for her latest order to be left feeling 'disturbed' when she opened it.

As we all know, online shopping can be hit and miss, with people not knowing if the items will fit them until they arrive. When clothes don't fit, we sadly have to send them back and get searching and scrolling again to find another winning look.

SHEIN shopper Amanda took to TikTok this week to share the unwanted findings that she found when taking out her new dress in her order. The video showed notes that had been typed up and printed out on paper. Viewers were "freaked out" while others called it a "sick prank", reports the Mirror.

As the dress is unfolded from the bag, several pieces of paper fall to the floor, all of which read: "You are going to die in this suit." Amanda's video was captioned: "Please explain the attached video. I ordered on Jan 15th, this dress and others. Upon opening the inner Shein package, six pieces of folded over papers fell out.

"I am scared and worried and called local police. This is not a joke. I will not be wearing or trying on this dress, even if it is a joke. #worried and not my first time ordering from Shein."

The comments left on the video from viewers are split views as some think it must have been a ‘sick prank’ or mistranslation. One TikTok user commented: “Maybe they meant to say "you're going to slay in this dress" but it got lost in translation." With another adding: "Maybe someone returned it like that and did it as a weird prank?"

Many were shocked by the notes saying: "Wow. So far I've never experienced anything bad from Shein, except things that were way too small." A second joked: "I'm not gonna lie.. I'd wash it and wear it still."
