Szczerek was filmed by catching a signed cap by Polish tennis player Kamil Majchrzak, who was handed over to a young fan during a live broadcast. The moment caused global outrage, and a visibly upset child became the face of the controversy online.

Szczerek responded to the will and clustered the incident. “The recent incident in the tennis match has caused a disproportionate online stir. Of course it’s all about the famous hat. Yes, I took it. Yes, I did it quickly.
He also urged critics not to do this. “I understand that some people may not like it, but please, let’s not be a global scandal of a hat. It’s just a hat. If you were faster, you should,” Szczerek added.

He addressed online abuse focused on him and his company and also issued a warning. “As for the hatred online, I remind you that insulting a public character is subject to legal liability. All offensive comments, defamation and hints will be analyzed in terms of court court.” The entrepreneur, co -founder and CEO of the Polish pavement and field company Drugbruk, saw that his reputation was a serious hit because the clip was viral. Audit websites and social media platforms were flooded with critical posts, while many users demanded boycott of their business. Majchrzak, on the other hand, helped to alleviate the tension of the location of the boy named Brok, and gave him a new signed cap along with other memorbalies. The gesture caused extensive praise, although it was not enough to protect Szczeka from continuing criticism.
