Posted by user Daniela (@danielaeverythingelse), the video has drawn over 200,000 views on TikTok. In the clip, she claims that she is receiving these checks because the company is repeatedly being sued.

Over the years, Victoria’s Secret has settled multiple high-profile lawsuits over 401(k) fees, alleged wage theft for garment makers, and on-call shifts, to name a few.

The Daily Dot has reached out to Daniela via Instagram direct message, as well as to Victoria’s Secret directly via email regarding the video.
