Battle against online fraud keeps gaining momentum
So whats the solution?
Seems it 99% of the time involves Chinese
Burma is at least trying, while over in Cambodia, they do very little cause of course they have "protection" and those higher ups are getting kick backs
this if from last year, yet these gangs are STILL operating
Cambodia Is Cracking Down On ‘Fraud Factories,’ Where People Are Forced To Scam Others
Soon when someone mentions Cambodia they first thing people will mention
"ahh yes the scam center of the world" rather than Angkor Wat

Where as in Cambodia FEW CHINESE seems to get arrested>>In the past two months, immigration authorities investigated about 14,000 people illegally entering or leaving the country and stopped about 21,000 people involved in online gambling and fraud from leaving the country, Li Tao, deputy director of the NIA's Border Inspection and Management Bureau, said on Friday.
Exit and entry administration departments have also tightened the issuance of exit and entry documents, and intensified the examination of applicants' materials to promote the crackdown on cross-border gambling and online fraud, he said.
The joint battle against online fraud in northern Myanmar has further intensified, with Myanmar handing over another 1,207 suspects to China on Wednesday after a successful operation on Sept 3, the Ministry of Public Security said on Friday.
The ministry said that efforts will be intensified to enhance police cooperation in the fight against online fraud in northern Myanmar, which mainly targets Chinese citizens.
The ministry has mobilized public security departments in Yunnan province and other regions to push forward the crackdown on such crimes in response to the grim and complex online fraud situation in northern Myanmar.
As a result, the public security organs of Pu'er, Yunnan, have actively carried out border cooperation with law enforcement forces in Myanmar, and provided them with information about the fraud groups and scammers in a timely manner.

The Chinese criminals were handed over to Chinese police and repatriated.
In addition to online fraud, drug-related crimes in the Greater Mekong Subregion were also discussed at a meeting in Beijing on Wednesday attended by officials from China, Cambodia, Laos, Myanmar, Thailand, Vietnam and the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime.

Cambodia Is Cracking Down On ‘Fraud Factories,’ Where People Are Forced To Scam Others
https://www.forbes.com/sites/cyrusfariv ... e3993f6c86In recent years, Cambodia has hosted high-rise compounds — many built in Chinese-run “special economic zones” — that human right advocates say in part serve as quasi factories for online financial fraud conducted against victims across Asia, and increasingly, in the United States. Forbes recently profiled one California-based scam victim, who lost over $1 million to what’s known as a “pig butchering” scam, where a scammer builds a longer term relationship with their victim before convincing them to invest money into a cryptocurrency scheme.
Inside these hubs, workers who have been lured and trafficked from neighboring countries are made to conduct these scams via various online channels. However, as part of a recent nationwide crackdown against what Cambodian government officials have called “illegal gambling,” at least some building complexes believed to house these cryptocurrency-fueled financial scam operations have been disrupted in recent days, experts say.

In a nation run by swine, all pigs are upward-mobile and the rest of us are fucked until we can put our acts together: not necessarily to win, but mainly to keep from losing completely. HST

Re: Battle against online fraud keeps gaining momentum
There is no solution for Cambodia, unfortunately.
The country promotes Angkor Wat, the Khmer Rouge and pretty much nothing else.
As a result the world simply pities Cambodia for the Khmer Rouge and goes (once) to the ruins of Angkor Wat.
Trapped by crony capitalism, there is no reason for the powers to be to change (and stop the money spigots).
Unless mainland China abandons Cambodia as a key rail of the Belt and Road (and the Western counties counter balances), there will never be more than lip service paid to the scam industry.
My opinions of course.
