At Others' Expense

By K. O. Bakare

Millions of people worldwide find themselves unwittingly or unknowingly immersed in crimes such as drug trafficking and racketeering, forced labour and prostitution, human trafficking and enslavement, migrant smuggling, transatlantic movement of stolen items, identity theft, and internet fraud, to mention a few.

The mastermind often gloats at the prospect of a bounty return while the primary victims, coerced into the plot, are left to face severe consequences. Ultimately, the larger society bears the brunt of these nefarious activities.

According to research by the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crimes, in 2021 alone, the global market value for drug trafficking is $320 billion, $36 billion for forced labour and prostitution, $90 billion for Internet fraud and identity theft, and $30 billion for human trafficking. So undoubtedly, there are many incentives for the perpetrators "AT OTHERS' EXPENSE."

This book narrates compelling stories that capture, in vivid detail, the different ways perpetrators use to lure unsuspecting innocent persons into these crimes and the consequences of trusting others. It also suggests valuable tips on reducing or eradicating the prevalence of these crimes. There is a lot for everyone to learn from the experiences shared.
