Taylor Swift fans have revealed how their special night was ruined after a thief snuck into their room and stole their phones, a bank card and $300 cash.

Sisters Jess and Hayley McLellan flew from New Zealand to attend the third of four sold-out shows Swift performed in Sydney on Sunday, February 25.

The women quickly fell asleep after returning to their room at the Palms Hotel in Chullora, in Sydney’s west, at about 1 am.

Just hours later, a man was captured on hotel CCTV trying every handle along the corridor before the door to their room swung open.

‘We were just dead tired, but also the doors that go into the corridor from outside, from what we understand, they don’t get locked,’ Jess told the NZ Herald.

‘They’re just like a regular key lock and there’s no way to check from the inside if they’re locked because they’re kind of always unlocked from the inside.’

The thief crept into the room while the sisters were sleeping and stole a handbag containing their phones, Jess’s bank card and $300 cash.

The man then attempted to withdraw $8,000 from the bank card, which was declined, before placing the empty handbag outside the hotel room door.

Their other sister, Morgan Turner, and her husband had been sleeping in a separate room.

The sisters are heartbroken over the loss of the photos and videos of Swift’s concert that they took on their phones.

Jess, 34, and Hayley, 20, had decided to stay in Australia for another week but struggled to feel safe in the other accommodation they had booked.

The sisters were unable to relax at night, jumping at every ‘bump’ in the corridor as they worried about ‘what’s going to happen next’.

A NSW Police spokesperson said officers from the Bankstown Police Area Command received a report after two women, aged 20 and 34, had personal property stolen from their room at a hotel on the Hume Highway, Chullora.

‘The women were sleeping at the time,’ a defendant said.

‘An investigation is underway into the incident and inquiries continue.’

The Palms Hotel gave the McLellan sisters a full refund.

Taylor Swift is currently in Singapore on the latest leg of her sold-out Eras Tour which has reportedly made the megastar more than $4billion.

She is set to be joined by boyfriend and Kansas City Chiefs star Travis Kelce, who flew to Sydney last month to be with Swift.

The pair were spotted enjoying a date at the zoo before Kelce watched his girlfriend perform in front of tens of thousands of adoring fans at Sydney’s Accor Stadium.

The pop megastar is set to conclude her final shows in Singapore this week, performing on Thursday, Friday and Saturday night.

She will then fly to France to continue her global tour.
