Human trafficking is the illegal act of recruiting, transporting, or harboring people through force, fraud, or coercion for the purpose of exploitation. Victims are often forced or deceived into exploitative work, such as labor in scam centers, sex work, or other abusive situations, frequently under threat or manipulation. Human trafficking is a serious crime and a violation of human rights, affecting millions worldwide. It can involve both adults and children, and traffickers use various methods, including false job offers, abduction, or psychological pressure, to control their victims.
