A WOMAN has issued a stark warning after realising a man taking a photo of her dog was actually snapping her address on the collar.
Actress Shey Greyson took to TikTok to share her chilling experience and the ‘quick-thinking’ which ‘saved her life’.
Shey, who lives in London, explained she was out walking her dog in a public park, on an afternoon like any other.
She said: “Two years ago I was walking my dog at the park and a man approached me and asked to take a picture of her.
“And I said yes, because why not? It’s a picture of a dog. So he started taking a picture of my dog.
“And then I realised that was like holding up her collar and then it hit me.”
Shey realised that the man had sinister motive, as she explained: My address is on that collar. He’s not taking a picture of my dog. He’s taking a picture of my address.”
She immediately confronted the man, addressing the situation head on – although she admitted she only felt brave enough to do so as it was ‘daytime and loads of people were around’.
“So I told him that I actually didn’t feel comfortable with him having a picture of my dog, and I asked him to delete it,” she explained.
“So he deletes it and then starts walking away really fast.”
He’s not taking a picture of my dog. He’s taking a picture of my address

But she still felt something wasn’t right, and refused to let the issue go.
Shey continued: “And I was like, excuse me, sir. Could you also go into your deleted album and delete it from there?”
Despite realising she was on to him, the man still tried to get away while protesting his innocence.
Shey said: “And he goes, I don’t have a deleted album. And I was like, you have an iPhone, everybody has a deleted album.
“Could you please delete the picture? And he was like, sorry, I don’t have a deleted album and like, keeps walking away.
“And keep in mind this is like two in the afternoon in a park, there’s other people around.
“So now I’m still chasing after him. And I’m telling him, sir, I know you have the album.
“I’ll show you where the album is. Can you please go into your phone so that we can delete the picture.
“People at the park are now starting to look at us now because I’m chasing after him and I’m telling him to stop walking.
“He stops again and I tell him again to delete the photo from the delete album and he goes, I don’t have a deleted album. And I was like, yes, you do. Everybody does.
“And he goes fine. He goes on his phone, does something for a second. He goes there, it’s gone.”
But Shey again stood her ground and refused to budge until she saw proof with her own two eyes.
She said: “I was like, could I just see the deleted album just to make sure it’s gone? And he goes, No, you can’t look at my phone.
“And I was like I don’t want to look at your phone. I just want to see the album just to make sure the picture is gone that’s it.
I was like, sir, I’m not going to stop and I’m not going to leave until you show me the album

“And he goes, no, you’re not going to look at my phone. And I was like, sir, I’m not going to stop and I’m not going to leave until you show me the album.
“So please just show me the album so we can be done with this. So he shows me the album.”
Needless to say, the bloke not only had a deleted folder – but the photo of Shey’s address was still there.
“The picture was still there so I made him delete it in front of my eyes,” she said.
She reckons her quick-thinking and refusal to take no for an answer ‘saved her life’, as she vocalised her fears over what could have been.
Shey gravely admitted: “What if I hadn’t noticed that he took a picture of my address?
“And what if I went home then that day, and you know, that night I took my dog out to pee and he was outside waiting for me.”
More than two million people have watched the chilling tale, and praised Shey for her bravery and persistence.
One person said: “This is terrifying. So glad you’re ok. Very brave on your part to call him out and persist.”
