500 Cellphones 350,000 SIM Cards and EARN $6000/Month

We See a lot of traffic on internet, but sadly a major portion of that traffic is not real. A significant chunk of traffic coming from sources like automatic bots or from people who make Fake accounts on social media and artificially boost posts to get them Viral.

A similar case was discovered when police raided a rented apartment in Thailand, they discovered Wang Dong, Niu Bang, and* Ni Wenjin* were running an big fake click fraud company. All these three individuals are Chinese citizens and were arrested for working without permit and smuggling SIM cards into the country.

The location of the house was near Cambodian border and they used Metal Stands to hold 500 cellphones which were connected to a computer. Police also found** 9 computers, 21 card readers and 350,000 SIM Cards.**

The initial assumption of police is that these guys were running a fraudulent call center to dupe people of their money, but further investigation revealed that these guys were running a Clickfarm on China's largest Social Network WeChat. It is assumed that these people were making around $6000/month by running this business.

China is becoming stringent on bulk buying of SIM Cards and thats the main reason why people like these are moving to different geographical areas to do what they want to do.

It's still not cleared how they entered Thailand and how they got hold of the massive equipment.
