Welcome to the Voice of America’s News Words.
Police in the American state of Utah recently rescued a missing Chinese teenager from a freezing mountain top.
SCAM
Police say the 17-year-old exchange student and his family were victims of an online kidnapping scam. Falsely acting as officials, Chinese criminals will tell a student to leave their housing. Then, they demand money from the student’s family in China for their safe “return.”
A scam is a series of actions to cheat or trick people for personal gain. The words “con” and “racket” can be used in the same way.
