Killed by a scam: A father took his life after losing his savings to international criminal gangs. He’s not the only one


Dennis Jones, an avid runner and photographer, was adored by his children and grandchildren. But in the last few months of his life he withdrew from his family and, having been divorced for years, befriended a woman going by the name Jessie on Facebook. After transferring his savings to Jessie he took his own life. Dennis was one of countless victims of a massive global criminal operation predominantly run by Chinese gangs who have built a multibillion-dollar scam industry in Southeast Asia. There, they’ve assembled an army of scammers, many held against their will in guarded compounds and forced to con people all around the world out of their life savings.
