Home / Events at Readings / Scam: Ivan Franceschini, Ling Li and Mark Bo
In conversation

Join us to hear Ivan Franceschini, Ling Li and Mark Bo discuss their book Scam

Wednesday 15 October, 6.00pm
Readings Emporium

We are delighted to have Ivan Franceschini, Ling Li and Mark Bo join us to discuss the online scam industry.

Based on years of engagement in the field, Scam offers an in-depth look into the rise and inner dynamics of the online scam industry, exposing the appalling situation of the individuals who toil in conditions akin to modern slavery in hundreds of 'scam compounds' that have mushroomed all over the region. What are the origins of this industry? Who is behind these operations? How do people end up in them? How is their labour organised? How do they manage to get out?

Free, but bookings are essential.

Please book here.
