Kenyan comedian and internet star Elsa Majimbo left fans in stitches after revealing her bank froze her credit cards \u2013 not because of a lack of funds, but because of a major shopping spree!<\/p>\n
The 22-year-old shared the story in a TikTok video, explaining how she decided to retail therapy her way out of a rough patch. Inspired by a friend who found solace in shopping after a difficult time, Elsa embarked on a shopping marathon.<\/p>\n
\n“I woke up one day and just decided I was going to shop until I dropped,” Majimbo said in the video. Her targets? Everywhere you can imagine \u2013 high-end stores like Versace, trendy brands like Zara, and lingerie giant Victoria’s Secret.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
The comedian recounted the initial suspicion from her bank, with alerts questioning large purchases. Unfazed, Majimbo cleared things up with the bank, confident in her spending power.<\/p>\n
But after a few more high-dollar transactions, the shopping spree came to an abrupt halt. Her cards were frozen! The bank, understandably concerned about unusual activity, required verification to ensure Elsa wasn’t a victim of fraud.<\/p>\n
Majimbo’s story highlights the lighthearted side of dealing with financial security measures, even for the rich and famous.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
