Because if you're a bad scammer, if you're there and you're horrible and you're –

sad and depressed and you're not doing your job, it's better for these bosses if you just get paid $10,000 to let this person go.

So there was this case of this Filipino woman who the boss had agreed to a $12,000 payment to release her.

But it's really dangerous for it.

There's this negotiator that goes and sort of tries to get her out of this compound.

But he has to come with the money and he has to be able to pay the crime boss.

But he also has to pay the militias to get him in.

So it was like a whole process.

And we were with this group, Acts of Mercy and another guy, filming them as they're on the phone negotiating her release.

And they're on the phone with her.

She's inside the scam center, and she's like, where do I go?

This scam center is massive.

She had no idea where to go.

They're saying, go to the west gate, and the guy is there waiting for you.

She's like, I don't know where to go, and she's crying.

If they see me with a phone, because it's a confiscated phone, they're going to beat me, and they're going to put me in the dark room where I'm beaten and tortured for days.

And Amy, the woman on this side, is telling her,

Believe us, there's somebody waiting for you.

Do not be afraid.

Bring your phone.
