A Singapore-based content creator known online as “Mermaid Girl” is now facing heavy backlash. And honestly, the internet is not in a forgiving mood this time. In early December, disturbing videos, screenshots, and claims began circulating online, all pointing to alleged animal abuse and illegal vape sales.
The creator, identified as Eunice Ng, was flagged by a TikTok account called @factsgpt. On 2 December, the account shared a screen recording allegedly taken from her Telegram channel. From there, things spiralled fast.
Videos spark outrage almost instantly
First of all, the clip was hard to watch. It allegedly showed a dog cowering while being struck multiple times. According to the account, the video was recorded earlier that same day. Soon after, it was reshared widely as netizens questioned the dog’s safety and overall welfare.
Even more worrying, the dog was described as “severely malnourished”. In the background, a voice was allegedly heard saying, “You’re nothing more than a rat,” as the animal recoiled. That line alone was enough to push many people from concerned to furious.
Meanwhile, @factsgpt claimed this was not a one-off incident. They alleged that the same dog had been kicked back in July. Those earlier incidents, however, were not recorded. Still, the pattern raised serious red flags.
Disturbing content goes beyond one video
As the story unfolded, more allegations surfaced. According to the account, the creator had shared other disturbing material on Telegram. This reportedly included a story involving a man engaging in sexual acts with a bird. That content allegedly expired in September.
Then came another layer. Screenshots and videos showed the creator posing in lingerie while her dog allegedly licked her private areas through the fabric. At least two such videos were said to have been posted in June 2025.
In one clip, the caption allegedly read: “Who wants to be my dog? Is this the luckiest dog in the world?”
Unsurprisingly, this pushed public anger to a whole new level.
NParks steps in to investigate
Following the online uproar, the National Parks Board (NParks) confirmed that it is aware of the allegations. According to NParks, investigations are currently ongoing.
They also stressed an important point. Being a pet owner is not a trend, not content, and definitely not a joke. It is a lifelong commitment. Animals depend fully on their owners for care, safety, and dignity.
NParks reminded the public that animal welfare is a shared responsibility. Members of the public were encouraged to report suspected cases of animal cruelty through official channels. Visual evidence, such as photos and videos, can play a key role in supporting investigations.
Alleged vape sales and claims of dodging authorities
Just when things could not get messier, another issue surfaced. Screenshots shared by @factsgpt allegedly showed the creator promoting e-vaporisers on Telegram. This reportedly happened months ago, around the time enforcement against vaping was tightened.
One screenshot allegedly showed her claiming that the Health Sciences Authority (HSA) “didn’t manage to catch” her because she had “outsmarted” them. Another post appeared to invite followers to place pre-orders for vapes, with talk of setting up a Google Form if demand was strong.
According to the account, such posts were made over several months. Some were later deleted. Readers also claimed that an email was sent to HSA in late September regarding the alleged sale and import of vaporisers. A reply reportedly came two days later, stating that the matter had been forwarded to the Ministry of Health (MOH).
Later, @factsgpt alleged that the creator claimed HSA had contacted her parents shortly before 2 December, but that “nothing happened” after that.
MOH later said that the enquiry had been forwarded to its media colleagues.
From viral fame to growing controversy
For those who remember, “Mermaid Girl” first went viral in 2022. She claimed she was “the reason why girlfriends are protective of their boyfriends”. Whether that was satire or pure provocation, it worked. She gained attention fast and collaborated with other creators and brands.
According to @factsgpt, many Singaporean girls were already familiar with her name. A simple search brings up multiple reaction videos from other content creators.
However, her online presence shifted over time. A look at her Telegram channel shows that by December 2023, she had begun promoting sexual services openly. By then, her “fame” had taken on a very different tone.
Mermaid Girl Talks “Cancel Culture” – Ironic Much?
In a recent interview with Savour365.com, Mermaid Girl shared her thoughts on cancel culture, and well… it’s a little hard to ignore the irony here. She said, “Honestly, I think cancel culture is very very toxic. I feel like if you did just one mistake, people will want to cancel you completely, which is actually very, very toxic in itself. I think there’s always a different side to the story and that people should not be so quick to judge. Just take things lightly online.”
Now, hear me out. On one hand, she’s calling out the dangers of snap judgments online, which, sure, everyone agrees—keyboard warriors can be brutal. But on the other hand… her alleged actions with the dog and vape sales? Those aren’t “one little mistake.” Saying “just take things lightly” while allegedly facing multiple serious accusations is, well, a bit rich. It’s like trying to dodge a speeding ticket by lecturing about traffic safety.
Irony aside, it does highlight a recurring online tension: the fine line between genuine accountability and toxic cancel culture. And let’s be honest, in Singapore, the public tends to have zero patience when it comes to animal welfare or breaking the law. So the lesson here? You can talk about toxicity all you want—but actions speak louder than Instagram captions.
My take on this whole mess
Let’s be real for a moment. Internet fame is not a free pass to cross every line imaginable. Content creation does not cancel out basic human decency. And it definitely does not excuse harming an animal or joking about dodging the law.
If the allegations are proven true, this goes beyond “controversial content”. This becomes a serious issue of responsibility. Animals are not props. Laws are not dares. And online clout is not a shield.
Also, Singaporeans are usually chill, but there are two things that will instantly flip the switch: animal cruelty and blatant law-breaking. Combine both, and yeah, good luck surviving public opinion.
At the end of the day, investigations will decide what is fact and what is not. But one thing is clear already. The public is tired of creators pushing limits just to stay relevant. There is a difference between being edgy and being outright reckless.
Sometimes, the algorithm rewards shock. But real life does not.
