In this age of social media, it has made people to easily share what they are doing to the world and sometimes , it can make people to get a little bit carried away with the vanity. People can post photos of what they are doing and sometimes may end up downloading photos and uploading them on social sites.
However, when you download photos and make it seem that they are yours, that becomes a problem and it is quite easy nowadays to verify. On Chrome, you only need to right click on the photo and search for the image and if it is a downloaded photo, you’ll be able to see it from the Search results.
That is what Kenyans did to a media personality, Kobi Kihara. People found out that she was passing off edited photos on her Instagram page as her own, yet they were actually downloaded from the Internet.
Like the feet she posted on Instagram were from an Instagram account (@simmishoes) and the feet were darker

This even extended to food pics on her Instagram, where she was caught stealing a photo and passing off the recipe as her own.
Kobi Kihara may not have claimed the shoes are hers but when it comes to food the captions, locations and comments are definitely meant to mislead pic.twitter.com/IOqe9ArAne
