Shunda Park Scam Compound
Summary
Shunda Park was a fortified forced-labor fraud compound located in Min Let Pan village, Karen State, Myanmar, operated under the protection of the junta-affiliated Democratic Karen Benevolent Army (DKBA). Workers trafficked from multiple countries were coerced into running pig-butchering cryptocurrency investment fraud schemes primarily targeting Americans from at least January through November 2025, when the Karen National Union seized the site. In April 2026, the U.S. Department of Justice charged two Chinese nationals, Huang Xingshan and Jiang Wen Jie, with wire fraud conspiracy for managing the compound; both were arrested by Thai authorities on immigration charges in early 2026 and remain in custody pending extradition proceedings.
