Mondulkiri Compound Tied to JIN XIN Syndicate — Torture, Billions in Romance Scams

By: Yuna Lee

The JIN XIN scam syndicate — a notorious and brutal cybercrime operation targeting victims across the globe — is at a crossroads, with new reports revealing a shifting operational landscape and conflicting insider accounts that challenge previous assumptions about its status.

Uncertainty Surrounds Myawaddy Operations as Cambodia Emerges

For years, Myawaddy, Myanmar, was known as the heart of JIN XIN’s operations — a place where victims endured horrific abuse while the syndicate scammed billions. Recently, however, rumors and leaked information suggest that JIN XIN may be expanding or partially relocating to Cambodia, specifically to a compound in Mondulkiri Province.

There is no clear consensus on whether the Myawaddy site has shut down or remains fully functional. Sources indicate:

• Some insiders claim that JIN XIN has moved its highest-performing employees from Myawaddy to the Cambodian site, possibly signaling a strategic shift or expansion.

• Others warn that Myawaddy’s operations continue, citing ongoing reports of extreme violence and torture.

Telegram whistleblowers have been particularly vocal about the conditions in Myawaddy, sharing harrowing details of beatings, torture, and psychological abuse that victims endure to meet extortion quotas.

Brutality in Myawaddy: Victims Speak Out

Former detainees and leaked testimonies depict Myawaddy as a compound rife with brutality:

• Victims report being confined in places like Room 325, a site of torture involving electric batons.

• Punishments such as the “whip package” — severe beatings to sensitive areas — are routine.

• Physical torture methods include extracting teeth with pliers and crushing hands with hammers.

• Victims face beatings, sleep deprivation, and psychological torment as punishments for failing to meet scam targets.

Despite such horrors, many remain trapped, unable to escape the compound’s heavily controlled environment.

The Cambodian Compound: A New Frontier?

In contrast to Myawaddy’s grim reputation, the JIN XIN facility in Cambodia presents a different narrative:

• Located in a remote area of Mondulkiri province (GPS coordinates: 12.392800, 107.304000), the site reportedly houses 100 to 200 employees, mostly Chinese nationals.

• Construction is ongoing, and the site appears to be expanding based on satellite imagery and insider video footage.

• A leaked recording from a management-level staff member asserts that there are no tigers or physical abuse at the Cambodian site, and that workers are free to leave at any time.

• Despite these claims, the facility remains secured with fences and controlled entry points, raising questions about the true extent of freedom for those inside.

The Scale of the Scam: Billions in Losses

Insider *Zhao, speaking under anonymity, described the Cambodia operation as a high-volume "pig butchering" scam factory:

• Employing 100 to 200 staff, mostly Chinese nationals.

• In 2024 alone, scamming billions of RMB, primarily from women in Beijing.

• Recently shifting focus to American victims, including a director at a major U.S. chemical plant and a public figure who allegedly lost millions of dollars.

Despite claims that employees can leave at will, multiple victims remain forcibly confined, according to several testimonies.

Victim Stories: Trapped in the Web of JIN XIN

The human cost of JIN XIN’s operations is staggering. Multiple victims have come forward, risking their safety to share their experiences.

• The Zhang brothers, sold between scam centers five times, recount attempts to seek help from Cambodia’s Ministry of Interior and anti-trafficking hotlines, only to face silence. Their final approach was 117 hotline reportedly requested $2,000 USD to process their case, which the family suspects was a payoff and yet their got sold yet again betrayed and beaten up. 117 have yet to returned the $2,000 till date citing it was for court to process the document.

• Three other Chinese nationals held in Pursat province, Cambodia, were each sold multiple times within scam centers. Families report zero response from Cambodian law enforcement despite repeated pleas.

These stories reveal a cruel trade where victims are commodities, resold and abused with impunity.

Conclusion

The JIN XIN scam syndicate’s evolving footprint highlights the adaptability and resilience of transnational criminal enterprises. As the Cambodian compound rises, and Myawaddy’s status remains uncertain, the need for thorough investigations and victim support is urgent.

Only through sustained international cooperation and public awareness can these abuses be curtailed, and victims freed from this ongoing nightmare.
