The world can be a frightening place for everyone, regardless of gender. These days, it’s challenging for anyone to be out and about alone without feeling uneasy. So, what can we do when we don’t feel safe?
In a recent video shared by @sachiyzmeen, she shares a horrifying experience of being followed by an unknown man at a mall in Shah Alam.
She was being followed by a masked man
In the video, Yazmeen is seen seeking help from a mall security guard, explaining that she was being followed by a random man while heading to her car.
Speaking to WORLD OF BUZZ, she expressed her hope that there won’t be any negative twists to the story and shared that by posting the video, she aims to raise awareness and remind others to stay alert.
“Please be mindful at all cost”
Yazmeen went on to explain her concerns, hoping the guard could keep an eye out for a man in a black face mask who had been wandering around.
After the incident, she described how, as she was trying to get to her car, the man began to walk faster when he noticed her.
“When I glanced back, I saw he was speeding up to keep up with me, which made me walk faster as well. My heart was racing the entire time.”
The masked man fled the scene
Yazmeen went on to describe how, when she finally reached her car, the man was lurking around the corner and stared at her. Just then, a random car pulled up and parked right next to hers.
“Coincidentally, the car that parked next to mine had a male driver. As soon as the driver got out, the masked man suddenly left the scene.”
She shared that her heart was racing from the adrenaline and she felt extremely scared at that moment. She advised all women to stay alert, saying,
“To all the women who shop alone at the mall, please be alert and keep safe.”

“I’m really tempted to get a dog for protection.”
