Over 300 crypto scam center slaves freed after electricity shutdown

Myanmar militias that once protected these scam centers are now demanding that the Chinese gangsters running them leave their regions.

Thailand cuts power to Myanmar crypto scam center regions

Chinese abductions prompted Thailand’s government to cut off the electricity supply to crypto scam centers in Myanmar today.

The Thai man was eventually arrested after a six-hour standoff with police, in what police say was domestic violence over bitcoin losses.

As part of an investigation into the suspects, Thailand’s Anti-Money Laundering Office has seized property worth 585 million baht ($16.5M).

After pushback from local industry insiders, Thailand has dropped its plans for a 15% crypto tax that would’ve penalized traders.
