Tisha Campbell wants people to move cautiously because of sex trafficking. On Friday the actress posted on her Instagram about her recent experience with possible trafficking predators.
“I need for EVERYONE to be overly conscious of themselves and their loved ones,” she cautioned. “As Toni Rivera says, it’s SHOPPING SEASON where traffickers try to snatch ppl up!!!”
In the video, Campbell explained that she tried to get a taxi service because there were no Ubers in the area where she was filming.
When she called the number that was recommended to her, and then a “sketchy-looking” van arrived to pick her up, but she got an eerie feeling when a man seated in the back stepped out and stood alongside the car.
The man, who she thought was being dropped off, told her to get inside, but she refused. That’s when she began to notice of van’s condition.
“I look at [it], it’s fucked up,” she said. “The rubber is pulled up from the bottom, dirt everywhere, the back looks like it got snatched out, and snatched out for a f****** reason.” Moments later, Campbell received similar orders from the driver, but she remained adamant about her decision. “I’m not getting in the f******* car. F*** ya’ll,” she recalled saying.
After the weird encounter, the “My Wife and Kids” star wet back to the front desk only to discover that the man who gave her the taxi number was no longer there.
When she asked about the information she’d received, she was told that it “isn’t the normal number.”
Campbell says she “almost got snatched up,” but references her survival up to her humble beginnings in Newark, New Jersey.
“If I wasn’t from Newark boyyyyy… If Tony Rivera hadn’t schooled me and my friends on what to look for, SHIT would’ve been real different. PLUS I don’t sound like I look,” she wrote in the caption. She also thanked production for “their concern and their understanding.”
