I use to live in Cambodia and once stayed in a really rural place near the border with Vietnam.. I remember that at around 7, 8 all the kids had to stay at home and stop playing outside.. when I asked why I was told about "the Chinese harvesters"

Don't you think that somewhere along the line, you changed heads back, for thinking, to before you met her? 🙊

What's even more incredible is how frequently this kind of thing happens.

 ' . . . how frequently this kind of thing happens'? . . . more like how frequently this sort of 'Oh, my gosh'  horror tale gets blown-up into a news thread . . . that's what's shockingly incredible! 😲

Maybe. I was reacting to the section on the article saying that in 2007, the World Health Organisation estimated 10% of liver and kidney transplants were done with illicitly trade organs. Googling the topic leads me to believe it really is a more common occurrence than I was aware of

I guess they were Chinese because organ harvesting is what is common in Xi China. They do it on Uighurs and refugees from North Korea and is reported from the survivals. There is no crime theses gangsters in or from Xi china wouldn't do.

Thanks for that, @Cabra. A pretty chilling picture, there!

Urban Myth with zero evidence

I don't think it's a myth but I agree there does seem to be a complete lack of evidence in this case.

In any case …although very possible happening in secret in advanced tyrannies

A similar Story "The Chinese Blood Slave" was reported a short while ago. That one , too raised many questions on how credible the claim was:

Not credible at all. It was declared a hoax back home:

The picture used in the extensive coverage of Li as he's under treatment in Bethune Cambodia China First Hospital in Phnom Penh, Cambodia

A spokesperson for the Chinese embassy in Cambodia said on Monday that the story of a Chinese man who was said to be lured to the country by an ad for a high-paying job and had his blood drawn by a fraudulent gang is actually a fabrication.

The embassy had been closely following the extensive coverage of the Chinese man surnamed Li, it said on its official Weibo account.

Cambodian police released its initial investigation of the case and determined the story is untrue.

Li actually smuggled himself into Cambodia and asked a local organization for help because of his poor liver condition. It helped him make up the story that he had been kidnapped and confined by a gang.

Li claimed his blood was drained seven times between June 2021 – when he was abducted to Sihanoukville Autonomous Port, the country's second-largest city – and February 2022, when he escaped from the gang, the embassy said in the statement.

The case has been handed over to Cambodia's judicial organizations.

The Chinese embassy said it will continue protecting the legal rights and safety of Chinese and Cambodian people while stepping up efforts to fight telemarketing scams targeting Chinese people.

Oh well. If the Chinese said it wasn’t true….  And if the Cambodian Police with their strict adherence for transparency and low levels of corruption agreed, then who is anyone else to disagree

Joint major crackdown on illegal Thai migrants in Cambodia prevent people falling prey to call centre gangs in the works

source:https://www.khmertimeskh.com/501040284/joint-major-crackdown-on-illegal-thai-migrants-in-cambodia-prevent-people-falling-prey-to-call-centre-gangs-in-the-works/

One Fact seems to look like a red ribbon in all of these cases. All foreigners working at these Online Gambling, Extortion and Crime Centers run by chinese entered the country illegaly. Some have credible evidence they were actually smuggled by boat from China but most simply crossed the border voluntarily in search of a good , well paid job. I also believe that most of them did not know what kind of job, accomodation and condition they were facing once they got there.
