Influencer Exposes 'Exchange Program' Scam Linked to Human Trafficking

An alarming trend has emerged on social media, with an influencer, Mariáh Heusi, bringing to light a sophisticated scam targeting young women. The scheme, presented as an enticing exchange program in Russia for individuals aged 18 to 24, is reportedly a front for human trafficking. Ms. Heusi detailed several red flags, including suspicious websites lacking official company registration numbers (CNPJ) and proper contact information, noting that these sites are now under investigation. "This is clearly a human trafficking operation, putting the lives of these young women at risk," Heusi stated in her video, drawing a stark comparison to the themes explored in the popular Netflix series 'Good Morning Veronica.' She urged her audience to exercise extreme caution, advising against clicking unverified links or contacting unknown individuals, emphasizing the critical need for thorough research and maturity in navigating online opportunities to prevent falling victim to such perilous schemes.
