porcelain bumping 碰瓷

The scam may be as old as the automobile itself: A fraudster throws himself in front of a vehicle and demands that the driver pay for his self-inflicted (or nonexistent) injuries. But in an age of ever-present cameras, it's getting a lot harder to pull off. 

“碰瓷”这种骗术可能和汽车一样古老：骗子自己在汽车前倒下，要求车主为自己受伤赔钱，这种伤害是自己造成的，或者根本就不存在。但在遍地摄像头的年代，这么骗钱就更难了。

There are scores of videos online that capture these scams, known in China as "pengci," or "porcelain bumping." 

这种骗术在中国被称为“碰瓷”，网上有很多碰瓷视频。

Some attempts have resulted in broken bones or even death on the part of the "professional porcelain bumpers," as they are known.

一些碰瓷行为导致“职业碰瓷者”骨折甚至死亡。
