The video shows her walking through the airport talking about the text that might have been sent moments before. She then proceeds to read what the message said.

"Hi Kristen, My name is Nate. I saw you and thought you were so beautiful so I had to find a way to talk to you. I saw your number on your luggage tag and decided to text you. I promise this isn’t as weird as it seems! Give a guy a chance," the message said, according to the video.

She first corrected the stranger, noting that her name is "Kirsten," not "Kristen."

Other social media users shared their own personal hacks to avoid their private information getting into the wrong hands.

"These documents contain confidential information that you won’t want a stranger stumbling across. For your safety, scan a copy of your passport and keep that in a secure place," the website says.
