There is some incredible news in the past few days. The birthplace of telecom fraud and has been defrauded by telecom fraud upstarts.
According to the official mouthpiece of Taiwan Province, since March 7 this year, 373 people in the province have been deceived into working in Cambodia. As soon as they got off the plane, the fraud group confiscated their mobile phones and all relevant documents, and then began to "guess" Guess who I am” telecommunications fraud business.
Those who disobey could be beaten, trained with electric batons, or locked up in a dark room; in more serious cases, they could be forced to play poker, have their organs harvested, or be falsely accused of drug trafficking.
Taiwan Province has no good solution for this. The main task is to put up a few signs at the airport to remind everyone not to go to Southeast Asia.
There is a problem here. Taiwan Province has always been a base camp for telecommunications fraud. Why are there still people who are "cheated" into going to Southeast Asia to continue their careers?
If you think about it carefully, you will find that it is not that simple. There is a high probability that Taiwan's telecommunications fraud industry has gone abroad and transferred its business to Southeast Asia. Some young people in Taiwan were deceived by their friends in order to pursue their "dreams."
So someone pointed out that more than 90% of Taiwanese young people who went to Cambodia actually knew what they wanted to do, but their performance was not up to standard or their mentality fluctuated. After returning to Taiwan Province, they packaged themselves as victims.
You may think that "pig-killing trays" are all made by Southeast Asians. This is a big misunderstanding. Southeast Asia is good at "HDD". Most of such delicate industries as "pig-killing trays" are in Taiwan Province in Southeast Asia. It was done by people and Hu Jianren.
"Pig Killing Plate" is actually an upgraded version of the "Guess Who I Am" telecom fraud, and the bosses behind it are mostly hardcore telecom fraud players.
In the past few years, the Chinese government has launched a heavy blow against telecommunications fraud, which can be regarded as a common sense literacy campaign for the whole people. The bloody cases have caused uncles and aunts to launch a profound self-reflection. Nowadays, telecommunications fraud has basically disappeared in China. market.
Since then, domestic scammers have gone to Southeast Asia. They have learned from the experience and upgraded not only their business, technology and equipment, but also the entire industry chain.
01
Let’s first talk about what a “pig-killing plate” is.
The so-called "pig-killing plate" is actually Internet fraud . Scammers package themselves as rich and handsome with eight-pack abs or Bai Fumei who shows off their wealth crazily. They use means such as marriage and dating to lure victims to "invest", "Play the lottery".
In the "pig killing" game, the scammer calls the victim "pig" and the process of falling in love and making friends as "pig raising". The communication platform is the "pig trough". In order to ensure the success rate of "pig killing", They also wrote a set of emotional development manuals, also known as "pig feed."
first heard the term "pig-killing plate" in Southeast Asia in 2016. Two years later, there was an explosion of "pig-killing plates" in Southeast Asia exposed online, and the number of domestic victims also increased explosively.
According to media reports, the amount of money involved in the "Pig Killing Plate" case is five times that of other types of cases, with the amount of fraud amounting to hundreds of millions. The defrauded people range from depression to depression, to bankruptcies, heavy load, suicide, and self-mutilation. Since the server is overseas, Scammers are widely deployed in Southeast Asia, which makes it very difficult for the Chinese police to deal with them.
Friends who have been to Southeast Asia all know that Southeast Asia has every sin you can think of, and it also has sins you can’t imagine.
Almost all countries in Southeast Asia engage in "HDD". Thailand's porn industry is outstanding, and it is also a distribution center for human and organ trafficking;
In 2016, telecom fraud gangs who could not stay in the country came to Sihanoukville. I casually purchased a few computers and mobile phones and started the "Guess Who I am" business. The local government did not pay enough "attention" to such people and had no motivation to ban them, so the entire Westport became the target of a telecommunications fraud gang. Paradise, many teams traveling in other countries in Southeast Asia also came here because of its reputation, thus forming the first batch of foreign population in Sihanoukville.
Later, the Cambodian government realized that if it continued to do this, Sihanoukville would become a business paradise for telecom fraud gangs, so it launched a heavy blow and drove away more than 40,000 employees at one time.
But this is not the end, but another beginning.
After the telecommunications fraud gang left, online gambling fraud caught up. In the three years after , a large number of online gambling fraud gangs began to pour into Sihanoukville, setting off a turbulent period in Sihanoukville.
Online gambling uses various brainwashing methods to make people gamble online. The main targets of fraud are Chinese people in China and other regions.
Low-level personnel engaged in this industry are called "vegetable farmers", and a large number of "vegetable farmers" were attracted abroad by fraudulent companies, forming a "spinach army."
In China, this criminal technology is called "pig-killing plate", while in Cambodia, this black industry is called "online betting", or "online betting" for short.
Due to the liberalization of online gambling business licenses, "online investment" has become very popular in Sihanoukville, with daily profits reaching millions or even tens of millions of dollars. The practitioners are simply living in paradise.
The popularity of the "online investment" industry has directly driven other industries in Sihanoukville, the biggest benefit being the real estate industry.
From 2018 to 2019, tens of thousands of "vegetable farmers" from China and Southeast Asia poured into Sihanoukville almost every month. These people have to eat and rent houses, which naturally pushes up the prices and housing prices in Sihanoukville. Usually a house of 30 to 40 square meters can be rented for 1,200 US dollars, and for a shop with a rent of 5,000 US dollars, many people come to grab it with cash. During the most popular period of "online investing" in Sihanoukville, landlords would require tenants to deposit nine and pay three. You can imagine how crazy it was at that time.
The high income of "vegetable farmers" has also boosted Sihanoukville's offline industries, with catering, casinos, clubs, etc. all benefiting significantly. At night, the front door of the Chinese restaurant is full of , Rolls-Royce, , Bentley and other luxury cars, and the "vegetable farmers" will take the fraudulent money and run to the real casino to have a taste.
In 2018, the most prosperous year for the "online investment" fraud industry, the number of employees in the entire industry exceeded 100,000, and the direct floating population also exceeded 100,000.
The dream was shattered on August 18, 2019. After being re-elected, Hun Sen signed the "Gambling Ban Order" to stop the issuance of online gambling licenses and terminate the original online gambling license at the end of the year. Hun Sen said, “Cambodia cannot put the country’s future on online gambling.”
Immediately afterwards, the Chinese and Cambodian police quickly attacked and destroyed multiple "online investment" dens and captured hundreds of "online investment" fraudsters. A series of blows made the "online investors" realize that it was time to run away again. Overnight, the "online investors" went their separate ways. More than 200,000 people in Sihanoukville disappeared in an instant, and the subsequent impact affected all industries in Sihanoukville.

After the Internet fraud company left Cambodia, it moved to Philippines . Currently, the Philippines is the number one powerhouse in online gambling.
In order to earn foreign exchange, the governments of Southeast Asia turn a blind eye to industries that are not accessible to these people, and they are not even interested in fraud gangs. In their eyes, it is good if the people can have enough to eat. There is no need to care about dignity.
Therefore, in the Philippines, Malaysia, Cambodia, Vietnam, Laos, Myanmar, "the Chinese cheat the Chinese" "pig-killing plate" startup companies are all over major cities, with tens of thousands of them every year Young people are tricked into these places and used as tools for fraud. They have a term in the industry called "dog push" or "spinach army".
In the "pig-killing plate" pyramid, the lowest level is the "dog push", who works a hard job and is tortured by his conscience. If he wants to leave, he must either pay a ransom or be beaten.
The bosses, supervisors, and smugglers in the pyramid have already passed the hurdle of conscience. Not only have they made a lot of money, but they have also pushed a large number of compatriots into the pit of fire.
90% of the "spinach" are fooled by friends of friends. The smugglers will tell the "spinach" that a certain country in Southeast Asia has legalized gambling. When they get there, they work 8 hours a day and do a few operations on their mobile phones. You can get 20,000 to 30,000 yuan a month.
As soon as most young people heard that they had little work and quick money, they immediately prepared to go abroad and start a small business after they had saved their first pot of gold.
In fact, many people go there casually, but it is not that easy to come back.
In the early days, snakeheads would help "spinach" book air tickets and apply for visas, which was more considerate than domestic tour guides. Once in Southeast Asia, the smugglers hand over the "spinachs" to the company, and everything is out of control.
From the moment they got off the plane, the passports of the "spinachs" were collected, and business training was carried out immediately after entering the company, which involved how to package themselves, what kind of words to use for different customers, and how to win over "customers" step by step Selling houses and cars, maxing out credit cards, online loan platforms.
At this time, the "spinachs" have realized that they have fallen into a trap, but their passports have been collected and there are thugs at the door. If they don't want to work, they can only stay temporarily. For some people who really can't get over the hurdle of conscience, the boss will comfort them by saying, "I'm here, let's give it a try first."
If "Spinach" insists on leaving, the boss will ask for tens of thousands to redeem himself. If he fails, he will serve him with a stick. Most people can only bite the bullet and go from "spinach" to a "dog pusher".
"Pig Killing Pan" companies are generally closed systems. The sleeping area and working area are in the same yard. They are no more than 10 minutes apart at most. There are armed security guards at the dormitory and company gates. It's completely done. There are people on guard 24 hours a day.
The "dog pushers" are crowded into multi-person dormitories, and their working hours fully comply with domestic schedules. They usually start at 12 noon and continue working until early morning or even later. They cannot call their families, let alone video chat, and they must use voice chat with strangers.
Larger companies have stricter requirements. In order to facilitate management, the boss simply engraved name tags for "Goutui". Everyone has a code name. The boss explained that it would be dangerous to use real names, so everyone also uses numbers. proportionate.
In some cities in Southeast Asia, an office building is almost entirely occupied by "pig-killing" companies, with hundreds of thousands of "dog push" troops gathered inside. These office buildings are also known as the "Oriental Demon Cave".
You must know that office buildings in Southeast Asia are not cheap. The property management company knows that you are a "pig-killing company" and will ask for rent. Plus hundreds or thousands of employees eat, drink, and have sex, and you have to spend millions every month. .
The decoration style of these companies is similar to that of domestic Internet cafes. There are 10 or 20 people in a row and a group, with the group leader sitting at the front. Once someone recharges money, the team leader will shout, "So-and-so customer service charges 30,000 yuan to 20,000 yuan," and the others will applaud collectively. The scene looks very much like a third- or fourth-tier insurance sales team.
Under normal circumstances, in a company with hundreds of people, only a dozen or so people can produce results in a month, but these 10 people can often increase the performance to several million, or even tens of millions. A powerful team leader, A single person's performance can reach millions.
According to the performance appraisal system of the "Pig Killing Plate" company, if "Gou Tui" cheats money, he can get 25% commission, the team leader will get 35% commission, and he can also get 10% kickback from the team members. Some people with bad conscience quickly lose money and leave after receiving the first commission.
Except for the team leader, 90% of the "dog push" people were deceived. Most of them had no money at home, so they had no choice but to continue working. A small number of them did not want their families to know and wanted to finish the job for half a year or complete the performance ahead of schedule. , and then go home quickly.
There are also people who cannot pay the money and want to run away midway.
Under normal circumstances, the company's thugs can find the person in less than a day. If the thugs can't find the person, the boss will issue a reward online, and it will take less than 3 days to catch the person, and then there will be a meal. Beat them up violently and then lock them in a small dark room. All the boss's losses will be doubled on the escapees.

A mature "pig-killing plate" company often represents huge profits, so the bosses behind it do not hesitate to invest in it.
Most "pig-killing disk" companies will purchase servers in the United States from technology companies in Zhejiang, and some small operating programs can even be purchased from a certain website.
After the company is established, it needs to hire programmers and equipment maintainers. The company will also equip "Goutui" with a series of software and hardware packages.
At the top of the food chain of the "pig-killing plate" industry are the bosses of investment companies, most of whom are Hu Jianren. This is really not a geographical discrimination. Hu Jianren has been in the telecommunications industry for decades, and with his strength there, it is difficult to clear the ground;
The second layer is The manager is the operator of the company; the third level of
is programmers and team leaders; the bottom level of
is the "spinach army". According to unverifiable data, the provinces that export the most "spinach" are Fujian, Guangdong, Hunan and Shandong.
In addition to the "pig-killing plate" industry chain, there are also two major auxiliary industries: the "snakeheads" of human trafficking and the intricate cross-border financial system.
If you don't cross Nanhai , you won't know how prosperous "spinach" is. On the plane from Guangzhou to the Philippines, more than half of them are "spinach". After getting off the plane and leaving the airport, they will be taken away by their respective bosses immediately. . Snakeheads can charge a head fee of more than 6,000 yuan per person. When the company is short of people, the "dog push" poached from elsewhere can even be sold for 20,000 yuan per person.
Usually smugglers target young people who have dreams of getting rich, or businessmen who owe a lot of debt at home and urgently need to go abroad to try their luck. However, there are also cases where domestic companies cannot continue and the boss sells the entire team to Southeast Asia. .
I have a friend from Guangdong who has been involved in the gaming industry for many years and has seen a lot of anecdotes.
In 2018, a game company with more than 2,000 people could not continue to work. The boss said that although the company was ruined by everyone, he could not give up on his brothers, so he decided to take everyone to Southeast Asia to make games. The market there is immature and the work is easy. And the money comes quickly.
No one thought much. The first batch of 25 people was sent to Sihanoukville. Their passports were taken away as soon as they got off the plane. Then, they were taken to a deserted suburb and began to learn "Chongqing Shishicai", self-packaging, WeChat, and MOMO's pick-up skills...
A few days later, they were taken to another company, and the content of the learning remained unchanged. The company asked them to start a "pig-killing" scam, using MOMO and TANTAN to make friends, with female accounts chatting with men, and male accounts chatting with women.
However, we are all technical men who struggle with emotional difficulties, so their performance is generally not good. After a month, the most outstanding person among his colleagues only defrauded 80,000 yuan, and there are still some people who are unable to do evil things and are willing to just get A basic salary of 3,000 yuan.
A month later, they were transferred to the third company, which was engaged in ordinary game sales. This time it was not a "pig-killing plate" and there was no big money to be made, but the overall performance was improved. How much did everyone have? Some psychological comfort.
html In the past 13 months, these people have been sold three times, and the boss behind them is the same as the snakehead. He gets a lot of commission every time. Some people wonder whether all the more than 2,000 people in the original company were sold by the boss in batches. Already?
Half a year later, these people returned to Guangzhou. Later, at a gathering of friends in the circle, one of them said: "They all went there to get rich overnight. Only after they went there did they realize that the people in that place had lost their humanity. ”
Conclusion
I also encountered telecommunications fraud some time ago. The other party’s rigorous logic and clever techniques are really hard to guard against.I still remind everyone to be wary of unfamiliar numbers, never transfer money to strangers, and download an anti-fraud APP when you have time.
