7 Months Inside an Online Scam Labor Camp::A man was abducted by a Chinese gang and forced to work in a scam operation. He gathered financial information, photos and videos and shared the material with The New York Times.
Brave man. Can’t even begin to imagine what he must’ve gone through.
There, the government is powerless. Thugs rule with virtual impunity, backed by the local ethnic armed groups that they pay for security.
There are different armed groups. Some of them have a business relationship with the Military officials. Border Guard Force (BGF) is one of them.
In northern Shan state of Myanmar, Northern Alliance (alliance between 3 EThnic armed groups) handed over the similar gang to the Chinese government after capturing the cities.
I genuinely read that 3 times as 7 “moths” inside an online scam labour camp. And was like, “shit, the news is really scraping for stories today!”
