Lil Tay and her brother, Jason Tian became the center of a death hoax after the recent death announcement on the official Instagram account.
It was previously announced on her official Instagram account that she and her brother, Jason Tian, had both died. Fortunately, the child rapper and her 21-year-old brother are safe and alive. And the truth is the death announcement was a hoax, which is a result of her hacked account. The social media influencer wanted to make it clear that she and her brother are safe and alive. And she is completely heartbroken and struggling to find the right words to say. She continued that it has been a very traumatizing 24 hours for her. She also received endless phone calls from loved ones all day yesterday while trying to sort out this mess. How did this mess happen? She explained that her Instagram account was compromised by a third party, and it was used to spread wrong information and rumors regarding her. The hacker even got her name wrong in the death announcement because her legal name is Tay Tian and not Claire Hope. Meanwhile, Lil Tay thanked Meta because the owner of Instagram helped her get back into her account. The good news happened after 24 hours of the death announcement. On Wednesday, the announcement that Tay and her brother, an aspiring rapper, had died appeared on her account.
