The “Nightmare” of the Female Streamer
Pippi is a single mother with a daughter but does not know who the father of her child is. The pressure of raising her child falls entirely on her, but her job as a streamer creating fitness content does not bring in the income she hoped for, and even basic expenses are not covered.
In 2022, 22-year-old Pippi frequently confided online with a man who claimed to be an agent of an entertainment company. He stated that he lived and worked in Cambodia and expressed a need to recruit an assistant responsible for organizing daily tasks and accompanying him in activities, promising a monthly salary of nearly 160,000 yuan (around 600 million VND). The attractive income made Pippi not think much and she did not verify the legitimacy of the job. She agreed and booked a flight to Cambodia immediately.
She was warmly and considerately welcomed at the airport by the man. He even helped the female streamer carry her luggage. The two went to a place he called the local labor certification office first, and he needed to temporarily use Pippi’s original passport and ID card.
The man then drove out of the city with Pippi and finally stopped at an abandoned park with tall walls. Sensing something was wrong, the girl tried to escape but was caught and the man pinned her down. Struggling to resist, she exchanged a series of punches and kicks. Ultimately, someone took out a stun baton and shocked her, the intense pain causing her to lose strength immediately. After being dragged into the park, Pippi was forced to sign a form printed in a foreign language, which she later realized was a registration form for human trafficking.
The perpetrators forced her to use dating apps to lure netizens to invest, but Pippi refused to comply and was treated more brutally. In just 7 days, she was sold 4 times like an item, and each time at a new abandoned park, endless torture and sexual assaults awaited her. The female streamer reported that she suffered 9 collective rapes in one week.
In the end, the owner gave her an ultimatum: either obediently participate in a scam group to defraud money, or contact her family to pay a huge ransom, or be taken to a “hospital” to have her organs harvested to pay off debts. Seeing the fierce looks of those around her, Pippi knew that these threats were not jokes, so she chose to engage in fraud.
Luckily Escaped from the Tiger’s Claws
During one waste sorting labor session, Pippi secretly hid a discarded phone card. She charged the phone card into a borrowed machine, hurriedly posted on social media, continuously writing about her kidnapping experience by the trafficking group, while revealing the location where she was being held.
This blood and tear-filled post seeking help quickly caught the attention of netizens. The embassy promptly intervened after receiving the news, and staff constantly contacted local authorities for her rescue.
After many days of close coordination, on July 1, 2022, Pippi was successfully rescued, provided with accommodation, food, and money to buy a flight back home.
After Returning, Pippi Attracted Many Media Interviews
Media outlets wanted to know what had happened to her, so she began accepting many different talk show invitations, frequently appearing in front of cameras to share her experiences in Cambodia. This brought her more income than when she was a streamer.
Notably, recently she unexpectedly complained about the rescue team, claiming that they had coerced her before returning her home. These accusations led to the female streamer receiving criticism comments of being “ungrateful” and “biting the hand that feeds you.” The rescuers responded in detail by releasing evidence of communications and coordination to release her, stating they had faced numerous risks to save her…
In response to these explanations, Pippi neither apologized nor changed her statements but took advantage of the wave of controversy to open accounts on various social media platforms to create videos, taking advantage of making “hot content.” She even accepted to shoot large-scale films, bringing what she called “experiences” to the screen and continued to profit from this incident. This series of actions has led mainland netizens to become angry, disillusioned, and disappointed, believing that she is so desperate for money!
