'Ninja' aunty tailgates man out of MRT gantry to evade fare -- to mixed reactions
A woman was caught on camera "tailgating" a man to evade paying her train fare at Clementi MRT station.
Stomper Lau Lau alerted Stomp to a video of the incident posted on Instagram and Facebook by Singapore Incidents.
In the video, the woman can be seen walking closely behind a man at the gantry and slipping through without tapping her card – all without the man noticing.
Some netizens cheered her on, with one commenting, “Good job aunty!”
Another praised her for saving money: "Gotta respect the hustle.”
Others called her a “ninja”.
A commenter said: “I always see cars and motorcycles tailgating at car parks. This is one ninja aunty. The man in front also didn’t notice; she sliced in like a razor.”
While many were entertained, not everyone saw it as a laughing matter.
One netizen wrote: “We should not allow these people to take advantage of our transport system! Catch, fine, cane, and confiscate all their assets to redistribute among the lawful masses.”
A few turned their attention to the person behind the camera, questioning the suspicious timing of the recording.
“Why were you taking a video of the aunty? Did you already know she was about to evade her fare?”
