This would be incredibly frustrating!

A TikTokker named Elle posted a video and explained to viewers how she found out she got duped after she bought a bottle of expensive perfume at a T.J. Maxx store.

Elle said, “How does this happen if it was wrapped in plastic T.J. Maxx paper? I’ve never seen anything like this. I just bought this really nice perfume, Dolce & Gabbana Light Blue, for a pretty penny. $90.”

She added, “I’m so excited. I open it up. Not only is it not the perfume, it’s a cologne, and two, it is half-empty.”

Elle then said, “This is literally a used cologne that came in this box and cost $90. I opened it, so I don’t know if they’ll believe me.”

Take a look at the video.
