HIGGINS: Can you kindly

Apparently, we're not the only ones.
I guess he's ghosting his mother, too.

Well, she called the bar,
and I said TC was still
at the rehab facility,
and that was news to her.
She didn't know he was there?
She didn't even know he'd been shot.
Alright, I-I really think

Tell me what's going on.
Please.
YING: It started about two years ago.
I got a message on WhatsUpp
from a man named Han.
He was asking why I didn't
show up for our date.
He had the wrong number,
but they struck up
a conversation anyway.
And turns out he lives in Tongli,
where Ying was born.
Han's never been out of China,
so he was eager to hear
about life in the US.
We hit it off.
Became close friends.
Or I thought we did.
A few months later, Han shared
that his mom was ill.
He needed money.
So he asked you for a loan?
No. He just confided
that he was investing
with a friend of his cousin.
He was worried, I'm sure,
how it would turn out.
But a month later,
he doubled his investment.
Ying has been a single mom
since her daughter was 8.
She's worked very hard to afford
to send her daughter to college.
I saved enough for tuition,
but the extras
books, dorm, meal plan
- Doesn't come cheap.
- Exactly.
So I asked Han if I could invest
with his cousin's friend.
He was very reluctant,
said nothing is a sure thing
[VOICE BREAKING]
that he didn't want anything
to happen to my money.
But I wouldn't let it go.
This is not your fault.
So when did you start investing?
About a year ago.
Returns were so great.
I just kept putting in more.
And at what point did you
think something might be wrong?
Two weeks ago, I messaged Han
and didn't hear back.
That was unusual.
When a few days went by,
I started to worry,
and that's when I checked the account.
♪♪
The balance was zero.
How much money did you lose?
Everything.
$165,000.
[CRYING] All of my savings
and my daughter's college tuition.
She went to HPD, but they said
there wasn't much they could do.
Yeah, I mean, these operations
are often international
and very sophisticated.
It can be very difficult
for local authorities
to actually find the scammers.
And nearly impossible
to retrieve the funds.
We know it's a long shot.
But Teuila said if anyone
could help me, it would be you.
♪♪
We'll do everything we can.
♪♪
- [KNOCK ON DOOR]
- Yeah.
Sorry to bother you, Mr. Calvin,
but there's someone here
who wants to see you.
I told you I don't want to see anyone.
I know, but she said
she didn't come all the way
from North Carolina
to sit in the waiting room.
♪♪
Ma?
[CHUCKLES]
♪♪
♪♪
I can't believe you flew all this way.
Of course I did,
once I found out what happened.
Now that I'm here, what can I do?
Nothing. I'm fine.
Really?
I don't understand why you came.
Because my son is hurt,
and I want to help.
I'm at a VA rehab. I got plenty of help.
Mm-hmm. Are you kicking me out?
Because I've been traveling
over 16 hours to get here.
No.
You can stay.
But I got to rest.
[BED BEEPS]
♪♪
Right, so I think the most efficient way
to go through the two years
of WhatsUpp exchanges
between Ying and Han
is to separate them
into different time sections.
- Yep, and on different devices.
- Right.
I didn't know you had a laptop, Kumu.
It's 2023, Thomas.
Pretty sure
you're the only one who doesn't.
That's what I have Higgy for.
Right, so we should all be
logged into Ying's account.
How are we going to be able to do this?
Ying and Han communicated in Chinese.
Did you translate it?
Uh, no. Thankfully,
there's software for that,
especially given that there
are about 36,000 lines of text.
Would have taken me a month.
36,000? You can't be serious.
Yeah, I mean, it's an estimate,
but from what I can glean,
they texted nearly every single
day the last two years.
- That's a lot to get through.
- It is.
But it's all we have to go on.
Welp, we should probably get started.

- What?
- You just walked right up to me.
Last couple weeks, I was pretty
sure you were avoiding me.
No. No. Why would you think that?

Maybe 'cause I asked you out,
and it made you uncomfortable?
No. No, no, no, no, no, no. No.

really working for you, Rick.
No, I'm not uncomfortable. I just

Wait. Seriously?
I mean, if you want to go out,
this time, you got to ask me.
Okay. I deserve that.

♪♪
Okay. I've gone through
seven months of these,
and I still have nothing.
What about you guys?
No, nothing, although I do now
better understand
why Ying fell for this.
I mean, it feels like
they had a genuine connection.
He certainly put in the work.
Yeah, that's why these long cons
can reap such big rewards.
Wait a minute. I found a photo
that Han sent Ying four weeks ago.
Oh. I mean, unfortunately,
WhatsUpp software strips
the metadata from any photos,
so we can't trace its origin.
Who needs metadata? Look.
It might be Han, but we still
don't know where it is.
Oh, we certainly do.
And it's not China.
- Huh?
- See that?
The bird? It's not just any bird.
It's an O'ahu 'Amakihi.
It exists only on this island.
Okay, so if that is Han, he was here.
Or at least he was
when he took the photo.
Kumu, what is What is that?
Can you zoom in on the reflection?
Oh, looks like a painting.
- May I?
- Yeah.
If I can identify the artwork,
it might help me narrow down
Han's location in the photo.
Right. Yes, the painting
is called "A Girl At Peace"
by artist Ken Mahalona.
And according to his website,
the print was mass produced
for guest rooms
at the Oceanside Hotel and Spa.
I think it's in Waianae.

Wha I don't understand.
Well, the money didn't go with Han,
so finding him won't necessarily
bring it back.
He has to go away for what he did.
Normally, I would agree
with you, but, uh
What are you saying?
He duped me and ruined my life.
Yes, but, Ying, he didn't want to.
He was also a victim of
something called pig butchering.
That phrase originated in China.
It means fattening a hog
before slaughter.
Yes, but in recent years,
it's actually come to mean
something else, as well.
It's when criminal syndicates
use human trafficking victims
to scam people out of money.
Are you saying Han was trafficked?
Yes.
He and his cousin came here for work
after his mother got sick.
That was true?
You know, most of what he said was true.
So the connection, the friendship
All of that was real.
He never wanted to hurt you.
And in fact, his refusal
to cause you any more pain

punished by the traffickers.

YING: It started about two years ago.
I got a message on WhatsUpp
from a man named Han.
He was asking why I didn't
show up for our date.
He had the wrong number,
but they struck up
a conversation anyway.
And turns out he lives in Tongli,
where Ying was born.
Han's never been out of China,
so he was eager to hear
about life in the US.
We hit it off.
Became close friends.
Or I thought we did.
A few months later, Han shared
that his mom was ill.
He needed money.
So he asked you for a loan?
No. He just confided
that he was investing
with a friend of his cousin.
He was worried, I'm sure,
how it would turn out.
But a month later,
he doubled his investment.
Ying has been a single mom
since her daughter was 8.
She's worked very hard to afford
to send her daughter to college.
I saved enough for tuition,
but the extras
books, dorm, meal plan
- Doesn't come cheap.
- Exactly.
So I asked Han if I could invest
with his cousin's friend.
He was very reluctant,
said nothing is a sure thing
[VOICE BREAKING]
that he didn't want anything
to happen to my money.
But I wouldn't let it go.
This is not your fault.
So when did you start investing?
About a year ago.
Returns were so great.
I just kept putting in more.
And at what point did you
think something might be wrong?
Two weeks ago, I messaged Han
and didn't hear back.
That was unusual.

I started to worry,
and that's when I checked the account.
