A Primark shopper has revealed how she tried on a bra she found in the store, only to discover it was not on sale, but rather another customer's abandoned underwear.

Natalie Brayshaw, a student from Glasgow, Scotland, found the pretty bra on a clothes hanger in a branch of the budget store and tried it on.

But after asking a member of staff the price when she couldn't find a tag, Natalie was told the bra was not actually on sale in the store - suggesting it was left behind by a shoplifter who had tried on a Primark bra and left their own underwear on the hanger in its place.

Stunned Natalie's tweet about the unpleasant incident - which she described as 'unbelievable' - has now gone viral.

The student's revelation prompted a flurry of comments online from other shoppers who said they'd experienced similar incidents.

Natalie wrote: 'Tried on a bra in Primark & it was nice so I went to buy it but there was no tag so the guy went to find a supervisor to get a code.

'Comes back & goes ''This isn't ours, it's a swap'' so someone has literally left THEIR OWN BRA on a hanger in order to shoplift one AND I TRIED IT ON [sic]'.

She continued: 'F***in unbelievable imagine trying on a random persons bra actual kill me.[sic]'

Her story has now had over 128,000 likes and retweets on Twitter, and has seen many other people come forward to say that it happens all the time.

One tweeted: 'I worked at Primark and this happens all the time, it's absolute horror. STOP DOING THIS PEOPLE.'

She explained that the bra had been hanging on the display in the store so she tried it on thinking it was one of Primark's products

The store's supervisor told Natalie that the bra wasn't a Primark product, and had actually been abandoned by someone who had shoplifted - meaning she had tried on another woman's bra

Natalie called the incident 'f***ing unbelievable' after her tweet gained over 128,000 likes

Other users responded to the tweet saying they have seen this happen in other stores

'This reminds me of the time when I was shopping with my nan and I put her old shoes on the sale rack while she was trying stuff on,' another posted.

'A lady put my Nan's shoes on and went to buy them and my nan had to tell her they were actually her old shoes.'

A third said: 'This used to happen a lot when I worked in a shoe shop, people walking out with our shoes and leaving theirs behind, or other customers trying on other people's shoes as they were trying on new ones.'

It is not known which branch of the store the student visited.

A spokesperson for Primark told MailOnline in a statement: 'We would like to apologise to the customer for this experience. We aim to provide our customers with an enjoyable shopping environment at all times and we are sorry that we didn't on this occasion.'
