A Chinese security guard was kidnapped and used as a 'blood slave' by a gang in Cambodia after he was lured to the country by a fake job ad.  The 31-year-old man, who has been identified only by his surname Li, was held captive and had 27 ounces of blood drained from him every month for six months. It is believed that the gang who kidnapped Li sold his blood to private buyers online. A normal blood donation usually takes around 16 ounces - 11 ounces less than the amount drained from Li - which is around 8 per cent of the average blood volume of an adult.   As a result of the excessive blood extraction, Li, who managed to escape the gang earlier this month, had multiple organ failures and his arms were covered with bruises from the needles.  The victim told he had been trafficked last June after going to China's southwestern region of Guangxi in response to a job advert for work as a nightclub bouncer.  Li said he was smuggled to the Cambodian coastal city of Sihanoukville by a criminal gang who sold him for £13,598 ($18,500) to another gang who forced him to work for various telemarketing fraud schemes.

In September, his captors began carrying out repeated extractions of blood from him after he refused to work and collect a ransom, which put his life in danger.  So much blood had been drained from Li that his captors started drawing from his head because the veins in his arms failed to yield enough blood.   The American Red Cross says that people should not donate blood more frequently than every 56 days, but for LI, the gang would extract the blood every month.  Li was only able to flee the gang when one member switched sides and was admitted to hospital on February 12 where he is in a stable condition after suffering from multiple organ failures.   Li said he was used as a 'blood slave' by the gang when he refused to participate in their fraud scheme and collect ransom for them.  He said one of the gang members threatened that they would sell him to organ harvesters if he did not give them his blood, the Asia Pacific Times reported.  Li said the gang would use electric prods to beat him and other men they had held captive.  Li, who had worked as a security guard in Shenzhen and Beijing before being trafficked, said he saw at least seven other men detained with him in a large room.

He said the others did not have their blood taken as much as him because his blood type is O, a universal blood type, reports the. 'From top managers to HR staff [of this company] are all Chinese. They treat us coldly,' Li said. He added that they regarded him and the other captives as 'tools for making money'. Li said he had been tricked by a fake job advertisement on the Chinese online classifieds platform 58.com.  The company, China's equivalent of Craigslist, told state media on Thursday it would cooperate with a police investigation in Cambodia although it had 'not yet established' whether the fraudulent job advert had been on its platform.   The Chinese embassy in Cambodia on Thursday in a statement confirmed parts of Li's story, but did not mention 58.com. 'The Chinese embassy in Cambodia once again reminds Chinese citizens who want to work in Cambodia to follow formal channels and not to believe in false adverts for high-paying jobs,' the statement said. Sihanoukville has in recent years seen a surge of Chinese investment and immigration, mainly in the casino business, which is banned in mainland China. Illegal online gambling operations targeting the mainland market are often run in overseas territories like Cambodia or the Philippines, where enforcement is less strict. 58.com's response to state media went viral on Friday, drawing over 200 million views on Chinese social media platform Weibo, where users accused 58.com of a wide range of unethical practices, from the high number of scams on the platform to the indiscriminate purchase and selling of user data.

The company in 2020 was taken private by a consortium of investors who were backed by private equity firms Warburg Pincus and General Atlantic.
