TikTok user @fuxktdub uploaded a video of a white woman accusing a Black man of stealing her phone, Newsweek reports.
While visiting a variety store called Spencer's in California, an unidentified woman, now nicknamed "Spencer's Karen," can be seen going back and forth with an unknown couple over the whereabouts of her phone.
“Karen really pulled this at a Spencer’s. Racism is alive and well,” the video's caption read.
In the video, the woman is seen shuffling through her purse, while the other woman can be heard asking, “Can you [store clerk] call it because she won’t let us call it."
Believing the Black man opted to silence her phone as a way to keep it, the woman said, “He could have turned off the ringer."
“Oh my God, do you want him to get f**king naked, lady?” the woman with the man said in response.
One of Spencer's store clerks tried to offer assistance, telling the group, “Guys, let’s try to stay calm and cool.”
The white woman then replied, “I want my phone back.”

Pleading his innocence, the Black man said, “Here's everything in my pockets,” despite the woman showing no signs of backpedaling her accusations.
After the store clerk provided his phone for the woman to dial her own number, the phone rang allowing her time to locate the alleged missing item where it had originally been — in her purse.
"Is it in your purse, ma'am?" the other woman asked before the white woman immediately responded, "It is, I'm so sorry."
The woman with the wrongfully accused man told the white woman to "f**k off" before the couple stormed off with "Spencer's Karen" following behind them, expressing her apologies for a second time.
TikTok users flooded the comment section, debating whether the woman was aware that the phone was in her bag and if her pride stopped her from dismissing the wrongful accusations against the Black man on camera.
The video has since attracted over 2.2 million views on TikTok, according to The Independent.
