On April 25, Ariane and Noémi, who go by @chance_twins on TikTok, posted a video showing one of them driving with an overlay text that read, “Me replacing my twin at work while she’s on a trip because her leave request got denied.” A few days later, the 22-year-old sisters from Quebec, Canada, shared an update about their plan. “My boss saw the video my twin posted while covering me at work,” the sisters wrote.

After announcing their plan on social media, the twins said they received a stern letter from the absent sister’s boss

Any further instances of misconduct will result in serious consequences, including potential disciplinary action.”

Some people have also suggested that everything, from the sisters switching places to the emailed letter, was fabricated in an attempt to get more views.

You were lucky she cared enough to place a warm body in her absence,” someone commented on the video. “There’s no way you actually swapped, though; it was just a TikTok,” another person said. “How can they prove it? Just say it was a joke,” a third TikTok user wrote.

Some have suggested that everything, from the sisters swapping places to the emailed letter, was fabricated

  A post shared by Chance Twins (@chance_twins) A separate user said, “But is it real, or has ChatGPT written it?” while another person wrote, “It’s a fake email.” “I don’t think posting your internal company email is going to help matters,” another social media user penned. Meanwhile, others shared stories that demonstrate that the plot of The Parent Trap isn’t as implausible as it seems. “My dad is an identical twin. He and his brother shared a job in college in 1978!! No one knew!!” an Instagram user wrote. “My old coworker did this all the time. His brother was super relaxed and I was the only one to notice it wasn’t him when he asked me if I needed any help,” another person said.

“He has way too much emotion in that email,” a TikTok user wrote
