This episode exposes Cambodia’s scam compounds—guarded operations where people are trafficked, forced to run long‑con investment scams (often called pig butchering), and subjected to forced labor, violence, and torture. It explains how these facilities operate like factories, the human toll on victims inside the compounds, and the financial devastation suffered by targets worldwide.
The episode also outlines why Cambodia became a hub for this industry, international responses and sanctions, and practical red flags and steps to protect yourself: stop sending money, preserve evidence, tell someone you trust, and report the crime. The goal is to raise awareness about the trafficking and fraud machine behind these scams.
