Understanding Pig Butchering Scams
Pig butchering, also known as Sha Zhu Pan, is a sophisticated long-term investment scam originating from Southeast Asia. Scammers build romantic relationships with victims over weeks or months before introducing them to fraudulent crypto investment platforms.
How the Scam Works
The scammer gains the victim trust through regular communication, often posing as a successful trader. Once trust is established, they encourage the victim to invest in a fake platform, showing fabricated returns to encourage larger investments.
