Pig Butchering Scam Exposed!

[@victorpeace8187]

My mom was scammed. She sent $50000 cash. Fortunately she called you right after dropping the package off at UPS and you was able to retrieve it after it left the bill. These people are the lowest of the low, what you and your team is doing is a real blessing. THANK YOU *STRONG WIDGET* ! P.S. my mom's had several scam calls since, but now she enjoys playing with them....hoping she'll get more calls. Maybe she'll join you someday in the People's Center...

I'm a police officer and I'm tired of taking these reports where people are scammed anywhere from 100 to seriously $53,000. Its unfortunate that have to sometimes tell them that cannot do anything to bring them justice. (at my level at least) *VortexTrace* Seriously thank you for fucking with these assholes.. You make me want to spend the next 10 years learning how to do this lol

They’re not “scammers” in the traditional sense. CNN has a story on their front page about this. One of the men who was kidnapped into this spoke to CNN and said he thought he was taking a job doing something else, but was held against his will in these compounds. He managed to get out, but so many others are behind. He said if they don’t make enough money, they’re physically beaten into submission. How we can help? Don’t engage with the text message. At all. On Reddit, on the ScamBait subreddit, thousands of people share their conversations with these scammers. We think wasting their time is fun. But for those who were kidnapped and forced into this, it’s literally a matter of life or death. We can help by not engaging.

I really appreciate you humanizing these people. Scam videos, without fail, are full of comments wishing the worst on them and their families. Calling for life imprisonment, eternal damnation, public execution. But they're people too - and sometimes people can do bad things. It doesn't make their lives any less valuable or their lived experience any less valid. I understand the desire to jump to anger and hate, completely writing them off as human beings. Especially if you or someone you love has been victimized. But we never know what someone else is struggling through. I'm sure a good many of these scammers, after kissing their children goodnight, have trouble sleeping.

Dude. I'm a vet, and nothing I ever did in service compares to the most amazing effort you and your colleagues give to protect and enlighten the public in general to this horrendous threat to innocent people. Much respect. *VortexTrace* ……

Finally someone explains this scam, I’ve been getting random texts from “Lisa” many numbers, every few weeks for over a year and I never keep the conversation going long enough to figure out how “she” is trying to scam me.

[@agelessorca]

I have encountered a fair number of these types of scams. I've never heard of the term "Pig Butchering" used for them though. The first one I encountered, I did have a short conversation with. I told them they had the wrong number. Eventually, the other person asked me some question that felt really weird. That's what clued me in on the fact that it might be a scam. Never replied to anything similar to it afterwards.

Respect for admitting that. I'm sure others who have been victims feel better for seeing this.

If you guys watched SerpentZA, Laowhy86, The China Show and China Uncensored, you wouldn't have fallen for it.
