五戒與電信詐騙
The Five Precepts and Cyber Scam
最近臺灣的媒體大肆報導有關東南亞電信詐騙及其連帶的人肉販賣問題，尤其人肉販賣所帶來的對被帶去做非法詐騙行爲的人，爲著賺取更高的所得，無論是自願或是被騙非自願的，面臨的是強迫勞動、虐待、性侵等等身心靈的摧殘與折磨，讓人非常驚悚！
Recently, the Taiwanese media have reported extensively on cyber scams in Southeast Asia and associated human trafficking issues. Those who are involved in human trafficking, are employed in a cyber scam, frequently lured by incentives to earn much more than they presently are earning. Then, whether they are voluntarily or involuntarily involved, they face forced labor, abuse, sexual assault, other physical and mental abusing and torture. It is really very horrifying!
這樣的電信詐騙本身是一個嚴重的社會問題，因爲被騙的人失去的不僅是錢財，人與人之間的信賴進而也產生動搖。甚者，有的人被騙去一生的積蓄，接下來的人生連生活都是問題。并且，這樣的欺詐有很多層次，涉及的詐騙和欺詐範圍也非常的多而廣汎。更可怕的是電信詐騙已經演變成人肉販賣。這些電信詐騙犯罪者，爲了金錢不擇手段，誘騙各年齡層的人，經由工作招募誘騙去做電信詐騙，如有不從，則是各式各樣非人道的虐待，諸如電擊、毆打、性侵、不給飯吃、關水牢、關黑屋等等。即便是自願去做電信詐騙的人，如果詐騙金額業績沒有達到詐騙集團的要求，也是要經歷上述的虐待。
Cyber scams are a serious social problem, because the people being deceived not only lose money, but also the mutual trust between people is shaken. What's more, some people who are deceived by a cyber scammer, have lost all their life savings. Accordingly, their lifestyles are adversely affected. However, there are many levels of the fraud and the scope of the scams and fraud involved. What is even more frightening is that cyber scams often include numerous human trafficking dealers. These cyber scam criminals, for the sake of money, deceive people of all ages by any means, and recruit them through job recruitment to commit cyber scams. If forced labor workers do not do as what the organizers dictate, they will be tortured with electric shocks, suffer from physical violence, be sexually abused, experience food deprivation, be isolated in water-jails, and be locked up in dark rooms, etc. Even those who voluntarily commit cyber scam, if their performance, meaning the amount of money to be gained by deceiving people, does not meet the requirements of the cyber scammer, they will experience the above-mentioned abuse just the same as those who are involuntarily forced to do the same work.
因爲疫情，很多人的生活受到影響，進而有些人鋌而走險去做電信詐騙，也有人因爲電信詐騙集團虛假的高薪廣告而落入詐騙集團的手裏，受到各種不人道的虐待。
Because of the Covid-19 epidemic, the lives of many people have been affected. Some people have taken the risk to commit cyber scam while others have fallen into the hands of cyber scammers; lured by the promise of false high-paying advertisements, offered by the cyber scammer. Those who accept the enticement are subjected to various inhumane abuses.
這樣的社會問題，已經不是侷限於臺灣而已，因爲詐騙集團已經是國際性的犯罪行爲與組織。這些詐騙集團招募或是誘騙來自臺灣、中國、泰國、寮國、越南、馬來西亞、新加坡、杜拜、印度、孟加拉等各地的人，從事電信詐騙，騙取世界各國人們的錢財。這已經是一個躲在全球性某些陰暗角落的問題。
Such social problems are no longer confined to Taiwan. Cyber scammers are now involved internationally, in criminal acts undertaken by organizations. These cyber scammers recruit or lure people from Taiwan, China, Thailand, Laos, Vietnam, Malaysia, Singapore, Dubai, India, Bangladesh, etc. to engage in cyber scams. They deceive people to gain illegal money by means of cyber scam from all over the world. This is already an issue that frequently hides in dark corners of the globe.
世界有許多國政府已經開始提醒自己的人民，要提高警覺這些電信詐騙，以保護自己的身心與錢財。並且，各國的警政單位也跨國合作，以打擊這些電信詐騙集團。然而，即便如此，電信詐騙仍然繼續存在，也仍然有人願意爲了錢財去做電信詐騙；而那些被誘騙去做電信詐騙進而被身心虐待的事件，也持續存在。
Many governments around the world have begun to remind their people to be more vigilant about cyber scams to protect their body, mind and money. Moreover, police departments of various countries are cooperating across countries to crack down on these cyber scammers. Even so, cyber scams still exist. Furthermore, there are people willing to do cyber scamming for money. And, those who are tricked into doing cyber scams, are frequently physically and mentally abused and tortured.
要如何防止這些悲劇的產生？
How can these tragedies be prevented?
佛經裡提到的五戒，不殺生、不偷盜、不邪淫、不妄語、不飲酒吸毒，可以提供一個人內心的省思，給予我們如同保護傘一樣，保護自己也保護他人。
The Five Precepts mentioned in the Buddhist scriptures, not killing, not stealing, not committing sexual misconduct, not lying, and not drinking alcohol or taking drugs, can provide a person's inner reflection and provide an umbrella of protection for ourselves and others.
如果一個人遵循不殺生、不偷盜、不邪淫、不妄語、不飲酒吸毒，電信詐騙就無法生存。
If a person follows the trainings of not killing, not stealing, not committing sexual misconduct, not lying, and not drinking or taking drugs, cyber scammers cannot survive.
不殺生：我們愛惜自己的生命，生病會去看病、’吃藥等。同樣地，他人也愛惜他們的生命。無論任何人傷害我們，無論任何形式，我們的身體會痛、心靈會苦痛。而如果我們去傷害其他生命，同樣的，他們也會感受到身心的痛苦。不殺生，不是只有不去殺死一個生命而已，更進一步的是不傷害。如果不殺生，那麼就不會有虐待。如果一個人有著這樣的慈心，那些電信詐騙為金錢強迫勞動的虐待，就不會產生。
Do not kill: We cherish our lives. When we are sick, we go to see a doctor, take medicine, etc. Likewise, others cherish their lives too. No matter how others hurt us in any form, our bodies will hurt and our minds will suffer. If we harm other beings, they will also experience physical and mental pain just like we do. Not to kill is not just not to kill a being, but also not to inflict harm. If there is no killing, then there will be no abuse. If one has such loving-kindness, those forced labor abuses for illegal money from those cyber scammers will not arise.
不偷盜：詐騙本身就是偷盜。沒有人希望自己的錢財、擁有物被盜竊，同樣地，既然我們不希望失去我們所擁有的，我們也不應該去竊取那些不屬於我們的東西。當我們能夠這樣思考的時候，竊取他人的金錢、物品，就會變成我們內心的一個禁忌。想想我們是否曾經丟掉過我們心愛的物品？那時候我們的感受是如何？同樣地，當我們利用科技電信詐騙他人錢財，那些被騙的人當他們發現自己的錢財失去的時候，會有多大的痛苦？
No Stealing: Cyber scam itself is stealing. No one wants their money or possessions to be stolen. The same way, since we don't want to lose what we have, we shouldn't steal what doesn't belong to us. When we can think like this way, stealing other people's money and goods becomes a taboo in our hearts. Think if we've ever lost our beloved things? How did we feel at that time? Likewise, when we use high tech cyber scams to steal other people’s money, how much pain will those people feel when they find out that their money has been lost?
不邪淫：我們不希望自己的伴侶跟他人有越軌的事宜，同樣的，他人也不希望自己的伴侶跟他人有越軌的行爲，這是最基本的不邪淫的概念。然而，不邪淫不是只有在這一層意義上而已，更深層的，是對一個人身心靈的尊重。強迫他人從事性交易、以性侵脅迫他人去做電信詐騙，本身都是「邪淫」，不尊重且殘害一個人的身心靈。這是一個非常基本的常識，做爲一個人，如果連這一點都做不到、不能夠遵循，實比一些動物都還不如。有的動物只在異性動物荷爾蒙高漲的時候，才產生本能的交配行爲。動物因爲本能的荷爾蒙驅使，而有氾交、強迫交配等行爲。然而，那些詐騙集團，竟如動物一樣，有意識的威脅、強迫、虐待那些無辜的被騙去做電信詐騙的人。這種行爲，實在不應該。如果有不邪淫的信念，這些身心靈的侵害，就不會產生了！
No sexual misconduct: We do not want our partner to have deviant affairs with others. Similarly, others do not want their partner to have deviant behavior with others. This is a most basic concept of non-sexual misconduct. However, the meaning of no sexual misconduct is not only on this level, but at a deeper level. It is the respect for a person's body and mind. Forcing others to engage in sexual conduct trading, raping people in order to force them to engage in cyber scam, are forms of "sexual misconduct." These activities disrespect and harm a person's body and mind. This is a very basic common sense. As a human being, if you can't even see this or follow it, you are worse than some animals. Some animals only produce instinctive mating behavior when the hormones of the opposite sex are high. Animals are driven by instinctive hormones, and have behaviors such as pan-copulation and forced copulation. However, those cyber scammers are like animals, consciously threatening, coercing, and abusing those innocent people who have been deceptively lured into cyber scam. This kind of behavior really shouldn't occur. If there is a belief in not committing adultery, sexual misconduct, these physical and mental abusing will not occur!
不妄語：顧名思義，就是不騙、不捏造、不說顛倒不實的話。任何心口不一、言不称实，以达到欺骗他人、蒙蔽事实真相的目的的話，都不能做。為什麼？因爲我們不喜歡他人如此對我們，同樣的，我們也不應該如此對待他人。這些電信詐騙集團，爲了獲得不法錢財，用各種虛假言語、各種話術以達目的，獲取他人的錢財，有的甚至導致他人家破人亡，實在是一種不可取的惡劣行爲。如果一個人有不妄語的信念，深信真實語可以帶來他人對我們的真實信賴，同時也可以得到他人對我們的敬重，那麼電信詐騙產業，就無法存在。
No telling lies: As the name implies, don't cheat, fabricate, or say things that are untrue. Anything that is inconsistent with one's heart and that does not tell the truth, in order to achieve the purpose of deceiving others and blinding the truth, cannot be done. Why? Because we don't like people doing this to us, and likewise, we shouldn't do this to others. In order to obtain illegal money, these cyber scammers use all kinds of false words and tricks to achieve their goals, illegally get money from others. Some even lead to the destruction of other people's families and loss of lives. If a person has the belief not to lie, and believes that being truthful can bring other people's true trust in us, and can also gain others' respect for us, then the cyber scam industry cannot exist.
不飲酒吸毒：酒與毒，導致一個人失去正常判斷力，進而導致各式各樣的悲劇，例如：車禍等等。失去正常的判斷力、失去正念，一個人可以做出平常不會、不敢做的事，例如殺人、打人、虐待人、說謊、強暴、偷竊等等。一個不吸毒飲酒的人，去做電信詐騙或落入電信詐騙集團的圈套的機會，就 會微乎其微。
Do not drink and use drugs: Alcohol and drugs cause a person to lose normal judgment, which in turn leads to various tragedies, such as car accidents and so on. Without normal judgment and mindful awareness, a person can do things that they would not normally do or dare to do; such as killing, beating, abusing, lying, raping, stealing, and so on. A person who does not use drugs or drink has little chance of committing cyber scam or falling into the trap of cyber scammer syndicates.
故此，佛經裏面說的五戒，實是一個準則可以提醒我們、保護我們。這不是關於宗教，而是一個任何人都可以理解的道理。把它當成一種訓練，訓練我們的心，培育我們的心， 淨化我們的心，而不是把它視爲一種宗教教。 如果社會上更多人能有五戒的信念，這個世界上，一個就會有少一點犯罪行爲，少一點社會問題，電信詐騙也會衰落式微。
Therefore, the Five Precepts mentioned in the Buddhist scriptures are actually guidelines that can remind us and protect us. This is not about religion, but a truth that anyone can understand. Take it as a training, training our heart, nurturing our heart, purifying our heart, not as religious teaching. If more people in society can have the belief of the Five Precepts, in this world, there will be less crime and less social problems, and cyber scammers will decline.
