With the domestic crackdown on telecom fraud, many telecom fraud gangs have moved abroad, especially in Southeast Asia. Initially, telecom scams moving abroad would be based in Southeast Asia, such as the Philippines and Malaysia, but in the past five years, northern Myanmar has gradually become the preferred refuge of these fraud gangs.

According to incomplete statistics, there are about 100,000 people in northern Myanmar engaged in telecommunications fraud, including some domestic compatriots smuggled abroad. After April 2021, at various gateways in the China-Myanmar border area, telecom fraud practitioners in northern Myanmar queued up to return home. In the announcement of "encouraging return" in various places, these people are called "personnel in northern Myanmar" or "personnel staying in northern Myanmar." Under the original policy, they would be treated leniently if they returned home before June 30.

Recently, the anti-fraud center of the Public Security Bureau of Lianjiang City, Guangdong Province, strengthened the information research and judgment of returning personnel from northern Myanmar, and summoned 4 people, including A Wen (a pseudonym), who were suspected of stealing the border of the country and engaging in telecommunications network fraud, to the public security organs for investigation. Sitting in the interrogation room, Wen told the police that he would rather go to prison to return home, looking back on those days in northern Myanmar, he really was worse than dead, he felt like a nightmare.

Last year, A Wen from Hengshan Town, Lianjiang City, listened to friends say that there is a "high-paying career" in northern Burma, with a monthly income of more than 10,000, easy and free work, unable to resist the temptation of his decision to meet with several friends and sneak across to Myanmar Bangkang under the leadership of the "snake head".

When they arrived in Myanmar, they were immediately seized by local militiamen armed with long guns, their documents and mobile phones were confiscated, and then placed in a room, a dozen people crowded together, surrounded by gunmen, completely cut off from the outside world. Before moving in, someone reminded him: no talking, no communication. Through the company's "pre-job training", A Wen finally confirmed that he had fallen into the telecommunications network fraud den, the original so-called "high-paying occupation" is to engage in telecommunications network fraud work, mainly through wechat, Douyin, Tantan, Solo, Ding ding, Mo and other social software, to find and add victims, posing as petty bourgeois men to chat with victims. After the use of pre-programmed words and videos and photos prepared by the company to obtain the trust of the victim, it is handed over to the next team of "veterans" to continue to talk, and trick them to top up on the false platform to "engage in foreign exchange investment", commonly known as "killing pig pan".

In the fraud dens experience "non-human" life can not complete the task is punished to drink vinegar, spray pepper, dip pig cage, etc., and even can only eat one meal a day. If you anger each other, in exchange for a beating, every day to live in fear of the day, the so-called easy freedom does not exist. If you want to go home, you have to pay a "huge" compensation payment to the company, so that the family can pool money to pay the ransom, if there is no money to redeem people, the light is suffering from skin and money damage; The worst is a broken arm, a broken leg, a tragic death in a foreign country. "Originally, I wanted to make money in the past, but the result was almost no return, really regret and fear." Now I feel much more relaxed. I would rather go back to China and face police punishment than stay there." In the interrogation room, Wen said the most is this sentence.

Asked how Wen felt about this experience, he regretted the past, choked up and said: "I in northern Myanmar these days, lived a hell on earth, the original own country is paradise, I will work down to earth, no longer do the dream of getting rich overnight, but also advise Chinese compatriots not to think of going to northern Myanmar, where is full of violence, drugs, gambling and Internet fraud abyss."

In SUMMARY:

Wen described the nightmare is full of all kinds of kill pig plate fraud routines, engaged in "kill pig plate" fraud gangs have a similar division of labor, some people are responsible for looking for the "pig" to kill, some people are responsible for chatting with "pig", technical personnel are responsible for building "kill pig" with the website, for deceived investors such a kill pig plate is also a nightmare.
