About 12 Nigerians were saved from a crypto scam in Myanmar that was allegedly run by the Chinese mafia.

Chinese organized crime gangs forced the 12 Nigerians, who were saved by a network of international non-government groups, to contact people online and convince them to invest in fake crypto sites.

People said that the Nigerians were victims of human trafficking and that they were hired for jobs in Thailand at a call center and in offshore gaming. The Chinese gangsters then took them to Myanmar and made them work in the scamming network. Chinese gangs are turning Nigerians into breeders for con artists.

A report from the France-based blockchain security network Nefture says that these scams, which are often called “pig-butchering,” force thousands of people who have been trafficked to work in their scam centers under the threat of violence.

Nefture said that once a person is trafficked, they are taught how to scam people all over the world by making friends on social media apps like Facebook, WhatsApp, and the dating app Tinder.

Nigerians are being targeted because they speak English well and can scam a wider range of people.

According to insiders, if they didn’t pull off the fraud, they would go hungry, be sold to another company, and even face death threats.
