Walmart officials are promising to take down a "dummy" security camera from a changing area in Edmonton, but the person who exposed the device is demanding further investigation.
Danielle Donaldson said she was trying on sports bras at the Clareview location last Friday when she looked up and noticed something staring back at her.
"The camera caught my attention above me. It not only can see in, it literally is to the side above the change room…I feel so violated and disgusted," she wrote on Facebook.
Donaldson said she snapped a photo of the object from inside the change room and immediately took her privacy concerns to a supervisor at the store.
"I didn’t feel like it was addressed like I expected it to be. I showed her the picture I took and she said, 'It’s fine,' and I ended up leaving there kind of confused," she explained to CTV News Edmonton.
She posted about the situation on Facebook and it was shared more than 2,000 times.
"I don’t think it’s just me at this point who’s been exposed to this camera in this change room," she said.
