🔥 67,000 men. One giant scam.
🟠 A Chinese fraud ring just pulled off one of the most industrial-scale romance pig butchering ops ever — by pretending to be wealthy Indian women.
🟠 Between June 2023 and January 2024, nine scammers posed as “emotionally vulnerable but financially stable” Indian ladies — using fitness selfies, travel shots, and fake companies to lure 66,800 Indian men into handing over a total of $6 million.
🟠 None of them were Indian. Or women. They used machine translation tools, geolocated social media accounts, pre-written emotional scripts, and classic #crypto laundering: INR to USDT to Chinese yuan.
🟠 The ringleader, surname He, got prison — along with the rest of the gang — with sentences reaching 14+ years from a Shandong court.
🟠 This wasn’t their first rodeo: in March 2024, another crew in #china was caught catfishing Turkish men by pretending to be Malaysian designers. Same script. Different audience.
🔥 Just remember: if a rich, beautiful, sweet-talking stranger wants to “invest” with you after 4 days of flirty DMs…
It might not be love.
It might be Lisa, 31, 170cm, divorced, boutique owner — and she works night shifts in Guangdong.
