According to Protos, the Thai government cut off electricity, internet and fuel supplies in the Thai-Myanmar border area at 9:00 am (10:00 Beijing time) on February 5 to crack down on local cryptocurrency fraud centers. The operation involved five service providers in three districts: Myawaddy, Payathonzu and Tachilek.
According to the investigation, the KK Park fraud center in Myawaddy is suspected of defrauding USDT worth $100 million through "romance scam". In 2023, Myanmar authorities rescued 1,200 prisoners in the area. The power outage is an important move by the Thai government to respond to pressure from China, after Chinese actors were defrauded in the region.
Thai Prime Minister Patongta said that the fraud activities have seriously affected the image of Thailand and need to take severe measures. Although the power outage measures will affect the normal operation of local residents and hospitals, the Thai Foreign Ministry said that the relevant communities have been notified in advance.
