The history
There are many stories that have gone viral on social networks where you can see how the collectors of companies such as Banco Azteca, Coppel, Elektra or other banking institutions, go to the homes of their debtor clients to collect, transcended in these digital media.
This is the case of a video, which has gone viral on Twitter, where you can see how a collector chases a woman who tries to escape so that she stops charging him.
In the recording that was recorded in the country, it can be seen how the collector, who is on a motorcycle, chases the lady down the entire street that she walks, until he gets into a car.
“When I want to pay you, I’m going to pay you,” says the woman at the beginning of the video.
Likewise, it can be seen that the woman gets out of the car she was in and the collector, who does not mention what company she works for, chases her and the lady repeats “that she will pay whenever she wants”.

The recording, which was originally published on TikTok, until it went viral on Twitter, has generated various interactions from Internet users, both in likes and in comments on the digital pulse.
“Remember friends: if you can’t pay, don’t buy,” read one of the comments on the video.
“Well, both things are wrong… if you don’t have enough to buy, stop asking for credit. And, on the other hand, that guy, what company does he work for? How annoying ”, he reads in another comment.
This video is not the only one that has gone viral on social networks and that demonstrates this reality. As examples, there are several cases where the collectors of Banco Azteca are recorded doing their work and attending the houses of the clients who owe them to collect, a situation that can be uncomfortable for many people.
As well, there are cases like the boy who decided to dress up as a collector of Banco Azteca, for a share at his school.
In summary, many times this type of news can visualize a reality that is registered not only in Mexico, but in many countries around the world.
