A student from northwestern China who was tricked into a scam in Myanmar was unexpectedly released after the gang learned he had a “bright future”.
Peng Yuxuan, 19, from Hanzhong City in Shaanxi province, had just retaken China’s national college entrance exam known as the gaokao in June. His scores and intended university have not been disclosed.
The Beijing News reported that Peng hoped to make some money over the summer holiday and went to Xi’an City with 800 yuan (US$110) from his family.
He met a woman on a job-hunting app who claimed she was recruiting live-stream hosts.
After telling Peng he was good-looking and could earn a lot, she offered to cover his travel expenses and flew him to Yunnan province in southwestern China.
