碰瓷的英语翻译 如何用英语说碰瓷

donzhtm

开车的朋友有没有被“碰瓷”过？“碰瓷”是不是国有文化？外国有没有“碰瓷”？“碰瓷”用英语怎么说呢？一些碰瓷行为导致“职业碰瓷者”骨折甚至死亡。直到今年出台的《关于依法办理“碰瓷”违法犯罪案件的指导意见》，终于从法律的角度给人们服下一颗定心丸。“碰瓷”起源于清朝清朝末年，没落的八旗子弟在闹市行走时，会手捧一件名贵瓷器的赝品，然后故意让行驶的马车碰到自己，瓷器随之落地摔碎。当事人因为着急赶路，通常无暇辩解，只得按照原价赔偿摔碎的瓷器。所以说，“碰瓷”本来的意思就是“碰碎瓷器”，但其本质，是一种讹诈行为。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。
“碰瓷”用英语怎么说严格来说，“碰瓷”是没有对应的英文翻译的。但是我们可以根据“碰瓷”的实际含义，找出相关的英文词汇。“碰瓷”最常见的行为，就是故意制造交通事故，索取赔偿。故意撞车以索要赔偿deliberately bump into a car to claim compensation.如果纯粹是字面意思的理解，可以这样解释“碰瓷”：Literally, it means "porcelain bumping", but basically, it means accident fraud in which someone deliberately bumps into a car to claim an accident compensation.
有个在中国的老外给即将到中国老外的tips，里面提到了碰瓷，他说Broken vase scams.
Broken vase scams......some people will cross your way and pretend to get hurt, do NOT help them! (unless you want to be sued by them) (there are some rules being changed and hopefully they will implement the rule of the good sammaritan, but I am waiting for effective examples)

“碰瓷”还可以说professional porcelain bumpers.
例：Some attempts have resulted in broken bones or even death on the part of the “professional porcelain bumpers,” as they are known.

碰瓷者，制造“碰瓷”的人，其实就是骗子，靠欺骗来榨取钱财的人，可用的英语可多了，可以用fraudster/swindler/scammer/......等等来表示。
例：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.

骗取保险insurance scam通过制造事故以骗取保险赔偿，也是“碰瓷”的一种形式，在国外也十分常见。
例：An astonishing video has emerged of a moped rider making a pathetic attempt to fake a road crash in an apparent insurance scam.一段令人震惊的视频显示，一名电动车骑手明显想碰瓷骗取保险。

[碰瓷] —— Pengci ( from the Beijing dialect ), is used in describing an opportunistic behavior. Pengci is commonly practiced by the extortionist who often plays a role of the victim as benevolent force in law jurisdiction, aims at obtaining compensation.碰瓷，原属北京方言，泛指一些投机取巧，敲诈勒索的行为。例如故意和机动车辆相撞，骗取赔偿。此外，“碰瓷”也是古玩业的一句行话，意指个别不法之徒在摊位上摆卖古董时，常常别有用心地把易碎裂的瓷器往路中央摆放，专等路人不小心碰坏，他们便可以借机讹诈。碰瓷者一般扮演了受害人的角色，以寻得法律法规或得到公众舆论的支持，弱势者容易获得同情，显得有道理嘛。碰瓷豪车比较常见，可是，要是穷极了，可耻的碰瓷者，连公交车也是要去碰的，连三轮车也是要去碰的，至少要搞到几个馒头的钱来。
