Some fans of left messages saying that Xing Weilin's anti-email fraud propaganda "tampered with other people's cakes" and attracted retaliation.
In previous reports on Myanmar’s electronic fraud cases, a trapped person once said that “was knocked unconscious by a bottle of water and then left the country to the electronic fraud park.”. Several volunteers who rescued the trapped people told reporters that these statements are "most likely false".
Due to work, volunteer Ah Wei's team has contacts with the local electronic fraud park in Myanmar and has participated in the rescue of more than a dozen "trapped people". According to their understanding, most of the people who went to Myanmar's electronic fraud park were not deceived or abducted in the so-called way. Many people knew they were going to commit electronic fraud, and then they were beaten and resold due to poor performance. Ask for help as a victim.
In order to evade police accountability after being rescued, some people will publicize their so-called experiences of being cheated and beaten. "It is false to say that a bottle of water will make you faint. Taking people across the border requires evading inspections, crossing mountains, riding bicycles, and wading through water. It cannot be completed without the cooperation of the person."
The police reminded
as The criminal space is squeezed, and more people engaged in telecommunications fraud are "returning"

In their self-reports
they often say that they went through hardships in the fraud dens before escaping. Shengtian
They broadcast live broadcasts, and were even dubbed "anti-fraud fighters" etc.
But in fact
the authenticity of their experiences cannot be tested
Be careful of "returning" people who come back and change themselves
Engage in telecommunications and network fraud
Anti-fraud, and also Beware of "return fraud"
