If you have been living in Hong Kong fore more than a few months, there's a very high chance you received one of those "recruitment" Whatsapp messages asking you to complete a survey or offering you a part-time online job for easy money, and if you thought "well, that's too good to be true" you are correct. It's a scam. Luckily Hong Kong comedian Garron Chiu took it upon himself to not only expose the scam but also scam the scammers back! And it was as glorious as it sounds. He joins us this week to tell us all about it. We are also joined by special guest Annie Louey. Annie is an Australian standup comedian and the co-host of China tonight on ABC News Australia!
