A new breed of con artists herd unwitting victims into a digital slaughterhouse.

Master manipulators use a scam called “Pig Butchering.”

They fatten up their prey with affection and the promise of riches, like feeding a hog on the way to the slaughterhouse.

Pig Butchers use psychological manipulation to bleed victim’s savings. 

If you believe similar schemes have victimized your family, friends, or business, report them to your local FBI Field Office, the Federal Trade Commission, and the FBI’s Internet Crimes Complaint Center.
