Season 2 Trailer | Escaping Scam City
Season 2 of the multi-award-winning podcast The Fight of My Life returns with Escaping Scam City—a six-part true crime series about love, deception, and survival inside Southeast Asia’s hidden scam compounds.
Season 2 of The Fight of My Life - Escaping Scam City delves into the alarming rise of forced scamming, exploring what has been termed the "pig butchering epidemic and its global impact.
Produced as a six-episode immersive podcast, Escaping Scam City centers around the true story of a young Malaysian man named Micah*. In an attempt to save his girlfriend, Ava*, from imprisonment in a Cambodian scamming compound, he finds himself trapped in a dark criminal underworld he knows he must escape. Even if it means risking his life to do so.
We journey with Micah from the moment he applies for what he believes is a customer service job, through the deceptive journey to Cambodia, the torturous months he spent imprisoned and abused in an online scamming compound, and finally to his daring escape and ongoing attempts to seek justice for himself and Ava.
Alongside Micah’s journey we engage experts to uncover the root causes and second-order consequences of forced scamming, as well as the victims who have themselves been scammed, and the organisations and individuals advocating for survivors and systemic reform.
