Standing Up With Mech Dara Against ‘Pig Butchering’ With Zeke Faux, Danielle Keeton-Olsen and Erin West
In this episode of “Financial Crime Matters,” Kieran Beer talks with three individuals committed to exposing cryptocurrency scams and drawing attention to imprisoned investigative journalist Mech Dara, who is responsible for uncovering the horrific conditions and practices within Cambodian-based crypto fraud compounds.
Zeke Faux, the author of “Number Go Up,” Danielle Keeton-Olsen, a freelance journalist based in Phnom Pehn, and Erin West, deputy district attorney of Santa Clara County, California, discuss Dara’s treatment by the Cambodian government and its seeming indifference to fraud compounds that enslave tens of thousands and operate in plain sight, causing the financial ruin of millions around the world. During the podcast, West touches on the success law enforcement has had in recovering some victims’ money, Faux calls on virtual asset service providers to do more to interdict crypto fraud funds, and Keeton-Olsen identifies some of the organizations working for Dara’s release.
