Sextortion isn’t just happening online — it’s being industrialized inside scam compounds like KK Park in Southeast Asia. In this episode, Erin West talks with Eric Heintz of International Justice Mission about his groundbreaking study linking sextortion of minors to the same criminal networks running pig butchering scams and cryptocurrency fraud. They expose how forced labor, satellite imagery, and open-source data reveal the terrifying scale of abuse, from trafficked workers to children targeted worldwide. This conversation is a wake-up call: sextortion is not an isolated crime, but part of a global scam machine that demands urgent action.
