More Observations...

RECEIPTS usually come in the form of screenshots or videos. The term became widely popular after the Taylor Swift feud with Kim Kardashian West and Kanye West in 2016. Kim Kardashian leaked Snapchat footage of Taylor Swift apparently approving some lines in a Kanye West song she would later criticize. She released the RECEIPTS (the video) to defend her husband. The situation is said to reference in the Katy Perry song "Swish Swish" with the line "She keeps receipts." The term isn't just used within celebrity culture. It can be used between friends (or frenemies). When digital proof is documented, the proof is a RECEIPT of the action or wrongdoing. Asking someone for RECEIPTS is considering the ultimate way to call someone's bluff.
