In this episode of Do You Want to Hear Something Awful? Host Alyson exposes the international pig-butchering and romance scams. But behind it is a much darker human rights crisis. We break down the recent international law enforcement raids that reveal who is actually on the other side of these text messages: young men and women lured overseas by fraudulent job postings, only to be held captive under brutal, industrial-scale forced labor conditions. From AI-driven voice-morphing software and deepfake live video filters to sextortion, investigate how criminal organizations take advantage of predators dominating the global dating pool. We show how organized crime syndicates have figured out how to extract millions of dollars using male misogyny, desperation, and insecurity to turn predator into prey.
