: Sarawak police have received three reports involving eight Sarawakians who fell victim to a job scam and were forced to work as scammers in Myanmar.
“We have also informed the Consulate and Ministry of Foreign Affairs to assist in expediting the rescue efforts and the return of the victims,” he told a media conference at the police headquarters today. Based on information received, he said the victims were forced to work in call centres involving online scammers in Myanmar, although they were initially offered jobs in Thailand.
“Upon arrival in Thailand, they were all taken to Myanmar and forced to work as scammers. If they did not meet the target set by their ‘employers’, they were abused and threatened with being sold to other agents,” he said.
