A Zaobao journalist known on IG as @songpei published a story on an NTU student who had Covid19, and took pictures from the latter's Instagram story without permission. The journalist had tried to ask the student for an interview about his experience with Covid, but the student declined and rejected him. However, he still went ahead to publish the story with the latter's IG pictures, and even details of his family members.

Primero Fitness, a company selling fitness equipment and rated 2 stars on FB, was accused of using a gym trainer's picture in one of its testimonials. They faked a positive review, changed his name from Carl Chia to Justin Chua, and did not even bother to apologise.
