Outline
Circulating social media message claims a little girl went missing in an ASDA store but was later found in the store’s toilets where a “foreign man and woman” were changing her clothes and cutting her hair.
Brief Analysis
The claims in the message are untrue. No abduction attempt like the one described has been reported at any ASDA store. The “warning” is an urban legend that has circulated since at least 1999. The store named in the message varies in different incarnations of the story, as does the country the story is set in. Passing on this false abduction warning will help nobody.
Example
Just wanted to tell all my friends in somerset something one of my students mums told me. Earlier on this week a little girl went missing in asda in bridgwater. Asda closed the store so that knowone could get in or out. The little girl was found in the toilets with a foreign man and women who were changing her clothes and cutting her hair. The little girl was 4 or 5, I believe, and blond haired. Luckily she was found safe and returned to her parents. Felt that everyone should be aware of it. X
