People in Hong Kong and Taiwan are frequently tricked into working in Southeast Asia and kidnapped by Ta Kung Pao reporters who apply undercover

Pictured: The Internet is full of a large number of well-paid job advertisements, luring citizens to work in Southeast Asia, and citizens are a little careless and fall into the trap of extortion at any time.

Recently, a number of cases of Hong Kong people being "sold piglets" to Southeast Asian countries have been exposed, and the whole city was shocked! The Security Bureau set up a task force to follow up, and it is known that eight Hong Kong people are still imprisoned in Myanmar. Some victims' families denounced the evil deeds of the fraud group on the Internet, "This is not an ordinary piglet seller, it is simply a kidnapper for extortion!"

The Ta Kung Pao follow-up investigation found that this kind of fraudulent advertising for preferential salary recruitment flooded online social media, including claiming to recruit online casino promoters, real estate management and sales staff, as well as Cantonese chefs, and the so-called cultural experience group, which explained that "food, housing and travel are all inclusive". The reporter got in touch with one of the recruits yesterday, who claimed to be engaged in online casinos, recruiting Chinese in Hong Kong, Macao, Taiwan and Southeast Asia, and falsely claimed that "there will be no restrictions on employee freedom, but passports will be put away and kept by the company."

In the past few days, the news that Hong Kong people and Taiwan compatriots have been "sold piglets" has been exposed, and the victims have been imprisoned and extorted, just like "sheep" Ren Jiao, and have been coerced to do all kinds of fraudulent activities; Some victims have been brutally beaten and sexually assaulted, and even organ harvested, which is heinous! The Ta Kung Pao reporter tracked down and found that social media and the Internet were filled with all kinds of fraudulent advertisements suspected of "selling piglets", recruiting Hong Kong people to work in Southeast Asia and other countries with high salaries and food and accommodation.

Advertised annual salary of 700,000 with drivers and servants

There are suspected fraud companies that advertise in a "job advertising magazine" in Hong Kong claiming to be an "international real estate developer", hiring "estate agent professionals", the position is "assistant director", the working place is Southeast Asia, but the actual location is not indicated, the job is to lead the team to sell residential and commercial real estate, advertising an annual salary of HK$700,000, guaranteed commission of 600,000 yuan in the first year, benefits include 12 sets of round-trip air tickets to Hong Kong, live in 800 feet to 1500 feet luxury houses, and more maids and drivers serve. Advertising claims that the same level of personnel who have worked for more than 3 years have an annual salary of more than 2 million yuan.

However, when the reporter contacts the other party according to the telephone number provided by the advertisement, the phone goes to the voicemail and instructs to contact another telephone number. The reporter pressed the new phone to call, and also transferred to the voicemail box, using communication software to call the other party, and no one answered. Experts estimate that due to the recent incident of selling piglets, the fraudsters are afraid of being pursued by the police and dare not answer.

Similar fraudulent advertisements recruit a variety of positions, including customer service, promotion, public relations, secretarial; Cantonese private chefs, administrative specialists, etc., the job titles are various, the same is that they all claim to have high salaries and benefits, including food and accommodation, and more holidays.

In order to eliminate the doubts of candidates, many advertisements deliberately state that "there will be no grounding", "can sleep outside", "there is a housing subsidy", "no pit and no deception", "no deposit", "zero compensation to pay in, zero compensation to go" and other "guarantees", which can be described as enough. In addition, fraudulent advertisements have "food and accommodation" The SAR government has relaxed the new quarantine policy of "3+4" at the entrance, claiming that there is a "cultural experience group" that takes you around Cambodia and Thailand, and food, housing and travel are all inclusive, and they will not hesitate to "invite the king into the urn".

False claims to keep passports out of fear of job hopping

In another advertisement claiming to be paid well for various positions, reporters and contacts greeted each other with communication software, and the other party quickly replied, "Do you want to know about jobs in the Philippines and Malaysia?" Then I asked where was the reporter? When the reporter falsely claimed that "from the domestic to Hong Kong to work, the last six months of unemployment, is trying to find a way to find a job", the other party immediately recommended the online gambling industry, and immediately passed on the recruitment details.

The man, who claims to have opened an online gambling company in the Philippines, told reporters in Mandarin, "The company mainly recruits Southeast Asians, there are not too many Hong Kong people, there are only two, and there are also some Taiwanese." He also claimed that he only accepted Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan, and did not accept domestic people, but the friend company only accepted mainlanders holding Chinese passports, "can recommend you private chat."

He also reassured reporters, pointing out that the company is located in the center of Manila, the capital of the Philippines, "We are not a casino, and the recruited people mainly communicate with players and customers online by computer, help them make accounting and promotion, that is, help the company find players to find customers." The reporter said that he was afraid that English was not good, and he comforted him: "We don't use English, mainly in Mandarin." He also pointed out that the company will include food, accommodation and air tickets, "You have a passport to send over, you can arrange to book a ticket, you can fly." The company does not restrict employees' freedom, but passports are put away for fear of job hopping. ”

The other side said, "Taiwanese and Hong Kong people are kidnapped and extorted in Myanmar and Cambodia, and indeed it happens from time to time, because they encounter 'black companies', they are forced to do fraud, they are imprisoned and lose money because they can't pay the number, they are beaten without money, and it is more dangerous there", and he also threatened that "some people (the victims' families) take money through us to ransom people." ”

The deceiver "falls to his feet" to lure

Mainlanders are affected by the epidemic and have difficulty going abroad, and now they are mainly recruiting people from Hong Kong, Macao, Taiwan and Southeast Asia.

I have no way to help you (Chinese passport) deal with going abroad, my friend has a way there, I can recommend it to you, you chat privately.

We are not a casino, we are doing online gambling, mainly recruiting promoters, using computers to communicate with players and customers online, helping them make accounts, solving problems encountered by customers, and helping companies find players and customers.

We do not communicate in English, mainly in Mandarin, and the basic salary is generally 10,000 or 12,000 yuan.

The company includes food, accommodation and round-trip air tickets, you have a passport, the company can arrange air tickets, after applying for a visa, you can fly in.

If you can't complete the task, you will get 75% of the basic salary, at least 7500 yuan.

Those Taiwanese who have been deceived are looking for informal black companies, which are not registered (registered) in the Philippines, are illegal companies, our company is a registered regular company in the Philippines, and fraud has never occurred in our company.

The company will not restrict the freedom of employees, but the passport will be put away by the company, mainly for fear of employees jumping ship.

There are currently 2 Hong Kong people in the company, the situation of other companies is not clear, there are many "online gambling" companies like ours in the Philippines, and there are many Hong Kong people working in these companies.

Resell the terminal KK Park such as Purgatory

People in Hong Kong and Taiwan are frequently tricked into working in Southeast Asia and kidnapped by Ta Kung Pao reporters who apply undercover

Known as the "final station of Southeast Asia", the KK Park in Myanmar is the terminus of the entire Southeast Asian fraud syndicate reselling victims, located in the southeastern Myanmar kayin State (Kayin State) city of Mia-wadi (also translated as Miaowadi), close to the Thai border. Kayin State is a rebel territory, and the Burmese government has difficulty interfering in its administration.

No resale value I am afraid that I will not leave a living mouth

The Thai police arrested a Cambodian citizen named She Zhijiang on the 13th, who is the head of the "KK Park" of Myanmar's "piglet selling" hell. She Zhijiang was wanted by China as early as 10 years ago, and then he acted in Southeast Asia as "She Lunkai" to create the image of a successful Chinese businessman.

She Zhijiang, 40, who owns a number of names such as She Lunkai, Tang Lunkai and Tang Kiang Kai, claimed to have invested $15 billion in 2017 to build an "Asia-Pacific Smart Industry New City" on the Thai-Myanmar border, which is accustomed to being called "KK Park" by the outside world and has a number of online gambling companies.

Sammy, a member of the Global Anti-Fraud Organization (GASO), said that although the Myanmar KK Park is not the largest, with about 10,000 people inside, it is the most brutal, because the hostages of the "piglets" who were deceived to Cambodia's WestPort will not be killed, because there is still value in resale, but if they arrive at the Myanmar KK Park, because it is the terminal station, the representative has no resale value, no need to leave a living mouth, if it is useless, it will be immediately sent to live organ harvesting, using the park's huge organ trafficking pipeline to sell abroad.

In addition to many Taiwanese lured to Myanmar by high salaries, several Hong Kong people are trapped in the KK Park and are in a precarious situation.

Selling a house with an annual salary of 700,000? The real estate community calls for caution

Since July, a large number of job advertisements have emerged on online social platforms claiming to work in Southeast Asian countries, almost all of which have a daily salary of more than 10,000 yuan, and some recruitment posts indicate that they are doing "partial business". One of them was an advertisement for an assistant director of an estate agency with an annual salary of up to $700,000 and a job in Southeast Asia. Some netizens shuddered when they saw that they were going to work in Southeast Asia, and some people left a message: "There is a big clam jumping with the street?" Some people in the estate agency industry said that it is very rare to recruit Hong Kong people who are not familiar with local culture, laws and languages to engage in real estate work in Southeast Asia, reminding the public to be careful and deceived.

Hiring Hong Kong people to sell real estate in Southeast Asia is unbelievable

The reporter searched for overseas recruitment on the Internet yesterday and found that since July, a large number of "bamboo shoot workers" who claim to be able to make quick money, earn more than 10,000 yuan a day, and eat and stay. More posters explained that the work content is "partial business", specifically recruiting people who are in debt and in urgent need of money, and those who are interested will post private messages through the platform.

Even though these posts have neither contact information nor any details about the content of the work, the posters are all newly registered users, and there is no shortage of "applicants" in the message area under the lure of high salaries. Guo Deliang, honorary chairman of the Hong Kong Federation of Real Estate Agents, who has been engaged in the real estate industry for more than 30 years, told the Ta Kung Pao that the general overseas sales of real estate are in the form of agents, or the company comes to Hong Kong to hold real estate sales meetings, and rarely recruits Hong Kong people to sell local buildings. He said that unless a local company in Hong Kong intends to develop foreign real estate and then send people to move in, this kind of recruitment opportunity is extremely small.

Guo Deliang also said that the house prices in different places are different, and the house prices in Southeast Asia are not even one-tenth of Hong Kong in minutes, but some people bid for an annual salary of 700,000 yuan to recruit, "In countries where property prices are low, how many floors should be sold, and the first value is 700,000 commissions?" He went on to say that in recent days, a shocking case of human trafficking in Southeast Asia has broken out, calling on citizens to be more careful when looking for jobs.
