Scam Artist or Human Trafficking Victim? - Inside a Scam Farm | UNODC | United Nations

Inside a Scam Farm: The Person on the Line is Not Who You Think Scams are causing damage worldwide, and spreading rapidly thanks to rapid technological developments. Following the trail of scam victims forward leads to stories of immense suffering—and so does following the trail backwards to the scammers, who engage in large-scale human trafficking, torture and enslavement so they can profit on the loss of others. Who is behind this trade in lies and deceit? How do they perpetrate their crimes? And how can they be stopped? The United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC) is working across Southeast Asia to help governments and the region as a whole to combat this threat and its repercussions around the world. In the Philippines, which has some 400 known scam farms generating billions of pesos in profits for organized criminal groups, UNODC supports the Presidential Anti-Organized Crime Commission (PAOCC) and other authorities in a coordinated response. From the big-picture regional effort to the story of a single trafficked victim, see inside the operation and learn how it works.
