Her experience also shed light on what appeared to be a growing and worrying trend of strangers entering people\u2019s homes without permission.<\/p>\n<p class=\"font-primary pt-md text-18 font-normal leading-1.5 text-grayscale-800\">For instance, after reading Mona\u2019s article, a resident came forward to share how <a class=\"text-primary-brand no-underline hover:underline\" href=\"https:\/\/www.stomp.sg\/stomping-ground\/we-did-not-invite-them-tengah-bto-owner-upset-after-strangers-allegedly-enter-flat-claim-own-it?ref=inline-article-9957598\" target=\"_blank\" data-discover=\"true\" rel=\"noopener\">two strangers had allegedly entered his BTO flat<\/a> and claimed to be the homeowners.<\/p>\n<div>\n<div class=\"my-lg md:my-xl\">\n<p><hr class=\"flex-1 border-grayscale-100 lg:hidden\"\/><span class=\"text-grayscale-400 text-14 leading-16 font-primary text-center lg:text-left p-sm\">Scroll to continue reading<\/span><\/p>\n<hr class=\"flex-1 border-grayscale-100 my-md\"\/>\n<hr class=\"my-md border-grayscale-100\"\/><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p class=\"font-primary pt-md text-18 font-normal leading-1.5 text-grayscale-800\">When informed of her win, Mona said: \u201cI appreciate the effort in sharing my story.
