Neighbour calls woman 'fat' and lists Weight Watchers number in note

A woman has shared abusive notes sent by her neighbour which called her "fat" and gave her a number for a weight loss service.

Savanah Pierce, from Oregon in the US, posted a video on TikTok where she read out the contents of the message, which was addressed to her and a friend.

The letter, written entirely in capital letters, read: "To the "heavy" aka fat person, what really worries me is one day I'm going to see 4 fat (really fat) legs and a***s come through the ceiling.

"Have you looked in the mirror? Oh wait. don't do it side by side, only one would fit. You should both be ashamed of yourselves.

Ms Pierce said the neighbour had sent her the note after having already asked her to keep the noise down.

After apolosing for the noise, Ms Pierce said she received another message, which read: "Oops - I put another note on your door! Complain to management!"

The note then listed a number for Weight Watchers and other weight loss programmes.

The video has been viewed more than 630,000 times on TikTok and many people were supportive in the comments.

One said: "Give her [the neighbour] a note that lists a bunch of therapists".

A second person added: "Please give the note to management and let them know she is harassing you."

A third advised: "Make them regret writing that note. Blast work out videos and start stomping around as much as possible."

But some people were more sceptical, suggesting that Ms Pierce could have written the note herself.

She responded with a follow-up video that showed several other letters purportedly from the same person - adding that she could not possibly have written them all in such a short timeframe.

Ms Pierce has been contacted for comment.
