‘I’ve had this one car following me from my hotel to the place of business, and they’re now following me again,’ Stacey told her followers. 

‘And I’ve just had to lose them, I’m freaking out, but basically just be wary of your surroundings, people are crazy,’ she warned.   

‘I don’t know how or why they’re following me or what is going on, but I’m a little bit scared, I’m a bit shaken up, but I’ve got meetings to get to,’ Stacey continued. 

The law graduate, who was dressed in designer gear for her business meeting, placed her hand on her chest as she attempted to calm herself down.
