Le Monde: How the Chinese mafia kidnaps Africans to swindle Westerners
Africans are being lured by promises of high-paying jobs in Southeast Asia, only to be kidnapped by Chinese cartels and forced into cyber fraud operations. Many, like Bridget Motari, find themselves trapped in labor camps, contributing to a booming industry known as "pig butchering."
