Swatting is one of the most dangerous types of hoaxes around and numerous celebrities have been victim to it in recent years. The tips from anonymous callers sharing fake information about reported crimes have caused numerous high-profile individuals to end up in surprise danger when police show up at their residences. Last year this happened to Cardi B and Offset at their home in Sandy Springs, GA. Thankfully the pair weren’t in the house at the time and instead were in Los Angeles while Offset’s uncle was house-sitting.
The swatting happened back in August but newly obtained video by TMZ is sparking renewed interest in it. Reportedly a call came through alleging that shots had been fired and the celebrity couple’s house. The caller may have even insinuated that Cardi herself could have been hit even though she turned out to be on the other side of the country. In the newly released clip, Offset is contacted over the phone. He seems appropriately frustrated by the entire ordeal during his conversation with police in the video.
