Did a motorcycle owner really catch a Jewish man on camera in the act of stealing pennies from the motorcycle's under-seat storage compartment? No, that's not true: The man portraying the penny thief is a comedian, Shloime Field. His Instagram account, which is labeled "Comedian", features skits parodying cultural stereotypes.
The video appeared in a post (archived here) published by the X account @unctbagstein on Aug. 17, 2026. It was captioned:
I can't say what I would do if I caught this piece of trash doing this to my R6, but I can tell you the ADL would meddle in the affair when it was all said and done
This is what a screenshot of the video in the post looked like on X on Aug. 19, 2026:

The video originated from Shloime Field's accounts on Facebook and Instagram. His Instagram account (archived here) is labeled "Comedian". The word "Comedian" does not appear in the archived copy of the account's homepage, so the screenshot below left serves as the record. The profile picture is a copper penny which has the words "In Jooz We Trust" and the likeness of Field in a leering pose. The original photo of Field in that pose in front of a bank (pictured below right) is the banner image on his Facebook account (archived here).

At the time of writing, the post at the top of the Facebook account is an Aug. 12, 2026, reel featuring a different video skit of Field stealing pennies from inside someone's home (archived here). It is captioned:
I love stealing pennies
