Ricci Arcari, 33, was at the Starbucks in Vauxhall when he spotted the device hidden in an air vent directly above the unisex toilet.He told The Independent: “I go in [to the store] regularly. I ordered my drink and while I was waiting I popped in to use the toilet.
“I was standing using the toilet when I noticed a little glint Iike the way glass reflects.
“I stood on top of the toilet seat to get a better look and realised it was a webcam or some other kind of recording device.”
