Have you ever thought that a 19-year-old child was cheated of 500 yuan to Cambodia and was finally rescued for 180,000 yuan, but his family disappeared?
This is not a movie, this is a real thing that just happened last week.
I know a volunteer who is a rescue. He said that he saved seven children last year, and four parents refused to pay.
Not without money, but thinking, “I’m not cheating anyway, why am I out?”
"-This sounds cold-blooded, but if you think about it, who doesn't save money?
Suddenly to smash a hundred thousand to save a lost child for half a year, not even the phone dares to call back, in exchange for you, can you really get out immediately?
Cambodia's fraud park is no longer a "black workshop".
They have a card system, monitoring, translation, and even teach you how to use AI voice to fool the elderly.
Do you believe?
Now they don't even need "high-paying recruitment", and instead use the names of "overseas live broadcast assistant" and "cross-border e-commerce operation" that sound like internships in big factories.
There may be a criminal detention list behind the posts you brushed about "30,000 charter tickets per month".
Last year, 500 Chinese were rescued, which sounds like a lot, but you know what?
Less than half of them can really go home safely.
When someone was rescued, they were still tied with chains on their legs; someone did not dare to go out after returning home, afraid that the neighbor pointed out "Did you also cheat people?
"--Do you think they were just deceived?
No, they are stuck in a pillar of shame by society.
Civilian rescue teams used to be supported by blood, but now they are signing contracts, collecting deposits and looking for guarantees.
Not being cold, but being scared.
An organization called the "Rescue Alliance" has just been established. It collects 50,000 to 80,000 yuan and clearly lists the price. It does not engage in the drama of "saving people first and talking about money."
Does this sound cruel?
But think about it, last month, a pair of parents delayed paying for three months, but the rescue team paid 120,000 yuan themselves and almost went bankrupt.
The Chinese embassy has a 24-hour hotline, but can you expect a consulate to dismantle the border with Myanmar?
Law enforcement is fierce, and it is also not able to follow the criminals' change of place.
When Sihanoukville Port was demolished, they moved to the suburbs of Poipet and Phnom Penh, and even the network cables were hidden in the temples.
You think they're afraid of the police?
What they’re afraid of—you don’t believe anyone will spend 180,000 on you anymore.
The most ironic thing is that donations are falling and apathy is rising.
Last year there was less than a quarter of the humanitarian aid funding, and no one was compassionate, but afraid.
If you donate once, you may save a liar, or you may save a child who is forced to cheat.
No one would bet or believe.
We always say “beware of high salaries abroad,” but have you ever asked yourself: Why are so many children willing to believe?
Because the family is poor, because there is no way to go, and because the advertisement of "20,000 yuan a month" on Douyin is more true than the persuasion of the class teacher.
Stop saying “deserving.”
Among the rescued children, some even lost their ID cards, some were drugged, and some cried in the middle of the night asking to call the police-but they were not qualified to cry because "if you leave the country, it will be illegal."
The real remedy, not more signs, not stricter border checks, is someone willing in your darkest time, not asking why you go, just asking if you can still go home.
Now, the alliance is pushing "rescue insurance", spending 200 yuan to buy one. In case of an accident, the government + insurance + alliance will share the cost.
Sounds like a commercial operation?
But this is currently the only way to keep good people from being emptied and children from being abandoned.
Don’t wait until your child disappears to think about how cold the world is.
Don't wait for you to donate money, only to find that the one you saved was a silent teenager who couldn't even say thank you.
We’re not saving a few children, we’re saving a trust.
Between people, can you fight for strangers once?
