receipts video

/rɪˈsiːts ˈvɪdiəʊ/

Common

A video compiled to present evidence against someone, usually screenshots, recordings, or documented proof of bad behavior.

The quality of a receipts video is entirely about the quality of the receipts. A video with weak or context-stripped evidence will be dismissed. A well-sourced one can end careers.
