Thailand Cuts Power to Scam Factories: A Step in the Right Direction, But What’s Next?

Thailand has finally cut electricity to massive scam factories operating along its border with Myanmar. These compounds have been running sophisticated online fraud schemes for years, generating billions in stolen funds while forcing trafficked workers to commit scams under duress. But why has it taken so long for Thailand to do something as simple as cutting the power? And now that they have—what happens next?

As The Crypto Ponzi Scheme Avenger, I’ve been exposing scams and Ponzi schemes for years, calling out the fraudsters who prey on everyday people. I’ve seen firsthand how social media platforms like YouTube, Facebook, and Instagram do little to stop scams, even when they have the tools to do so. Meanwhile, independent investigators like me are constantly battling censorship for simply exposing the truth.

In this video, I’ll be reading my latest blog, breaking down the real story behind Thailand’s power cuts and asking the tough questions no one else seems to be asking:

- Why did it take pressure from China to make Thailand act?
- What happens to the thousands of trafficked workers trapped in these scam compounds?
- Will this action inspire other countries like Cambodia, Laos, and the Philippines to crack down on scam operations?
- What about social media platforms? If they can ban people like me for exposing scams, why do they allow scam ads to thrive?

This crackdown is long overdue, but cutting the power is just the beginning. These scam factories have backup generators, alternative internet access (like Starlink), and powerful crime syndicates protecting them. Without real enforcement and victim protection, will this actually shut them down—or just cause them to relocate?

We also need to talk about the bigger scam factories—social media platforms. If they have the technology to shut down fraudulent investment schemes, why don’t they? The truth is, they profit from the very scams they claim to fight. My YouTube channel was terminated for exposing scammers, and I had to fight to get my voice back. Facebook banned me because someone falsely reported me as a scammer. And these companies make it impossible to appeal because they hide behind automated AI systems.

This video isn’t just about Thailand cutting the power—it’s about the global fight against scams. 2025 is a game-changer. AI can be used to detect and stop fraud at its source, but only if companies and governments actually want to stop it.

I also want to highlight the incredible work being done by Erin West, a U.S. Deputy District Attorney who has been relentlessly fighting online scams. She and her team have already recovered stolen funds and are proving that law enforcement can take action. But more needs to be done, and we need more people speaking up.

If you care about exposing scams, protecting victims, and holding tech companies accountable, this is a must-watch. It’s time to stop pretending these problems don’t exist and start demanding real change.
