Alabama Barker says people she considered close friends stole more than $130,000 worth of belongings from her over two years. The influencer described discovering that designer pieces she recognized as her own were allegedly being offered for sale to other people she knew.
The 20-year-old daughter of Blink-182 drummer Travis Barker and Shanna Moakler shared her account through TikTok Stories. Her accusations concerned clothing, jewelry, a handbag and furniture, with some items apparently disappearing long before she began connecting the losses.
Alabama said she had welcomed the people involved into her home and trusted them around her possessions. The discovery began after an overnight visit at her new house, where security cameras had not yet been installed.
“I took care of them like they were like my family,” she said. Her original Story has since expired, but reporting published November 10 and 11 documented her account and the photographs and videos she subsequently shared.
A Missing Chrome Hearts Stool First Raised Questions
The item that prompted Alabama to take a closer look was a Chrome Hearts stool that had been in her bedroom. She said it vanished after friends stayed over, although she initially resisted the idea that anyone had taken it.
Instead, she convinced herself she might have misplaced the furniture. Her suspicions grew when she learned that someone from the group was trying to sell expensive items to mutual friends.
Another friend showed her photographs of the merchandise, Alabama said. She recognized clothing from her wardrobe, including pieces she had not realized were missing.
Four Pairs of Jeans and a Birkin Account for $130,000 of Her Estimate
Alabama identified four pairs of Chrome Hearts jeans and valued each pair at $20,000, putting the combined figure for the denim at $80,000.
According to Female First, she also believed the same person was trying to sell her black Hermès Birkin bag, which she valued at approximately $50,000. The handbag was reportedly a gift from her father.
Her account also included diamond jewelry. She described rings going missing over time and believed a pair of diamond earrings she had previously considered missing was among the items being offered for sale.
Alabama expressed disbelief at the number of possessions she believed had been taken. She presented the losses as a series of incidents, rather than saying everything disappeared during the single visit that drew her attention to the stool.
Alabama Says a Friend Claimed the Resale Video Was AI
Alabama said she confronted one of the people involved about a video showing her belongings being offered for sale. According to her account, he responded by suggesting the footage had been created using artificial intelligence.
She then shared older photographs of herself wearing jeans she believed were missing, along with images of her handbag. One picture of her in the denim carried the caption, “I miss them so bad.”
Just Jared reported that her subsequent TikTok Stories included a security video of a man going through her closet and clips from posts allegedly offering her possessions for sale.
Alabama said she contacted the FBI about the missing belongings but had “gotten no help.” When E! News contacted the agency, the FBI said in a November 10 response that it could neither confirm nor deny the existence of an investigation.
