Yesterday, my timeline was on fire with people blasting popular fashion brand, Abercrombie & Fitch. A link to a website was floating around, with them selling cargo pants labeled “N*gger Brown”…a disgustingly racist title. I thought the whole thing was sketch from the start because I’d like to believe NO brand would be that stupid, but also the link wasn’t a direct abercrombie.com or anything of the sort. It had dashes, the word “outlet”, just a bunch of things that looked fishy. Needless to say, it turned out to be a hoax and the A&F guys are already seeking legal action. Details below.
Abercrombie & Fitch is adamant … the clothing giant is NOT behind a bogus website selling extremely racist merch under the A&F logo … and now it’s going to FORCE the fakers to shut down ASAP.
The fake site … which describes itself as an A&F “outlet” … ignited all sorts of panic on the web yesterday … because it offers an item described as “N**ger Brown Pants.”
When the REAL Abercrombie caught wind of the situation … they were less than pleased … and immediately ordered their lawyers to crush the racist bastards before it duped anyone else into thinking it was an official A&F site.
A rep for A&F has released a statement to TMZ …telling us, “We do not condone racist language. This is a counterfeit website and we have initiated legal proceedings to shut it down.”
