The popular Cuban TikToker @kurly_la_peque reported online that packages she receives at her front door have been stolen, and this isn't the first time it has happened to her!
The creator, who lives in a condominium in Louisville, Kentucky, never thought something like this would happen to her in a country where, in her view, "people have no need to steal."
"Well, to be honest, I don't really like making this kind of content... but I'm going to do it because I don't know if others are experiencing the same thing," she explained in the video. Showing footage from her security camera, @kurly_la_peque revealed how someone arrives just 10 minutes after the delivery person leaves the package and takes it without any remorse. "It's not the first time, and I know it won't be the last. It has happened to me countless times," she confessed, visibly frustrated.
The situation is so serious that she has even had to cancel collaborations with TikTok Shop stores because she cannot test the products they send her. "I work with social media... and it's my image that's at stake," she stated.
The followers quickly reacted and offered suggestions to prevent further thefts. "Have them delivered to the lockers at some gas stations... it's super secure there"; "Buy a large mailbox with a lock so that no one can take the packages," suggested some; while another directly told him, "You need to file a report with the police and give them the videos of the thefts."
Some of her followers, who also live in the same city, confirmed that it's a common problem: "I live in Louisville too, and our packages are stolen... it seems to be quite common here," commented one user.
For now, @kurly_la_peque continues to wait for a solution while gathering videos of her missing packages and wondering what to do: "I don't know if I should report this to the police... I just don't know what to do," she concluded, seeking advice from her community.
Reports like these are not new on the internet, where others situated in the United States have raised their voices over various issues. Recently, another Cuban creator also voiced her frustration over the lack of values and the unfair behavior of some users around her. In that instance, the influencer delivered a clear message to those who appropriate what belongs to others: "that doesn't belong to you, that's not yours."
