    • AI-generated women on TikTok have been pushing false or misleading claims about Singapore and Malaysia, a CNA investigation has found.   The videos discovered have drawn more than 3 million views.   https://cna.asia/4yiYo8Q   Full Details: CNA Investigation – AI-Generated Women Spreading False Claims About Singapore & Malaysia on TikTok   Published: Jul 13, 2026 | Source: CNA        Investigation Scope   - Accounts reviewed: 30 TikTok accounts featuring female-presenting personas speaking mostly in Mandarin about regional affairs  - Total videos: Over 550 identified between Oct 2025–Jun 2026; ~90% contained false/misleading content, drawing more than 3 million total views  - Production pattern: 98% of videos used AI-generated faces/figures, copied/manipulated personas, reused voiceovers, and recycled scripts – suggesting an organised, factory-like operation        Key False Narratives   Content mixed facts, distortions and fabrications, often framing Singapore’s economy and standing as dependent on China. Prominent false claims included:   - That Singapore’s Foreign Minister Vivian Balakrishnan “begged China and Indonesia” not to back a new shipping route that would bypass Singapore’s port – no such incident ever occurred  - Distorted takes on geopolitics, trade, and bilateral relations involving Singapore, Malaysia and other regional nations        Platform Response   - CNA shared evidence with TikTok; two highlighted accounts were terminated shortly after  - TikTok stated the accounts violated policies on deceptive behaviour and noted it is taking steps to detect and remove such content        Broader Concerns   The findings highlight how AI tools are increasingly used to create seemingly authentic “presenters” to lend credibility to disinformation, making it harder for users to spot fake content. The report also underscores risks to regional reputations and public understanding of international affairs.   Full article: https://www.channelnewsasia.com/singapore/tiktok-ai-women-disinformation-deepfake-presenters-6250271        
    • A 70-year-old woman who thought she was helping her romantic partner received more than S$38,000 and transferred the money to other accounts. She has been jailed for 10 weeks for acting as a money mule. https://cna.asia/4pmIdn8   Full Details: 70-Year-Old Jailed as Money Mule   Source: CNA (https://cna.asia/4pmIdn8) | Sentenced: 13 Jul 2026   Offender & Conviction   - Name: Christina Cheong Yoke Lin, 70 - Charge: Pleaded guilty to receiving money without verifying its source - Sentence: 10 weeks’ imprisonment   What Happened   - In Sep 2024, she met someone on Instagram who called himself “Liam”; she believed he was her romantic partner - He claimed he worked on an oil rig and couldn’t use local banks, asking her to help receive funds - Between late Nov and Dec 2024, over S$38,000 went into her account; she transferred it to other accounts as told - At least S$2,000 came from a love‑scam victim - Her account was frozen in late Dec 2024   Background & Sentencing Notes   - She was warned in Jun 2023 for similar conduct and told not to handle suspicious funds - She herself fell victim to a love scam before; in 2019 she got a mandatory treatment order after retaining S$50,000 from that scammer - Prosecution sought 3.5–4.5 months; jail term was shorter because she gained no money personally and harm was limited   What’s a Money Mule   Someone who lets their bank account receive/transfer funds from criminal schemes, often without checking where the money comes from — it helps hide stolen/scam money.
