Specifically, a «Jun Jie».If your name is Jun Jie or Tan Jun Jie, and you recently saw a social media post accusing someone with your name of theft, corruption or some other dubious crime, fret not, you are probably not in trouble.Businesses in Singapore recently hopped on a social media trend of calling out «Jun Jie» for allegedly committing crimes at their establishments.The posts typically start off on a rather serious note, with the business addressing the supposed offender directly.They then reveal, for example, an item that was allegedly stolen, accompanied by attractive product images.But before anyone named Jun Jie can start looking over his shoulder, the businesses reveal that the entire thing is a joke, and the alleged crime is often something far more innocent than it initially sounded.As an apology for the unnecessary scare, some businesses even offer real Jun Jies a freebie.
