Everybody knows the whole point of Banksy is that he's a mystery figure. That's what makes him so intriguing. So, it's pretty annoying when people try to unmask him and reveal his identity. However, you've clicked on this link hoping to catch a glimpse of him, haven't you, you little rascal? So, no complaining in the comments.

Okay, basically, some woman claims to have caught the anonymous graffiti artist Banksy on camera in Melbourne.



In the footage which is doing the rounds online, the woman races after the man, who turns and tries to hide his face with his hand and shouts, 'fuck off, fuck off', before running off. Charming.

Apparently, the woman said the graffiti was an image of anti-immigration politician Pauline Hanson stood next to what she reckons is Banksy's signature.

Mia, who posted the footage on YouTube, captioned the video: "So I was walking home from work late last night and I was watching a street artist doing a piece in Hosier Lane.



"I doubled back and pulled out my phone as he was finishing up.

"Can't believe I just met Banksy!"

Of course, the mystery artist has never been caught in action and his identity has never been confirmed.



To be fair, he just looks like a thug to me. I ain't buying it.

Would the real Banksy please stand up?
