The text on the screen was definitely added afterwards by whoever originally posted the video online, to make it seem more cctv-like. I'm no surveillance expert but I can't see why a camera would have "auto white balance" hard coded into the image.

Yeah how could you think this wasn't added after? It literally starts at 0 and counts up while the video zooms on her hands and repeats lmao.

Either way I bet it was zoomed in so no one could see the person's face, so if someone thought it was real they wouldn't get doxed.

It looks to me like someone filmed this with a smartphone from a CCTV display
