The Bureau of Immigrations told Filipinos wanting to work abroad to exercise caution following cases of human trafficking schemes targeting young professionals.
“These are not the usual ones na iisipin mo na mabibiktma ng mga trafficking syndicates,” Sandoval added.
Furthermore, Sandoval said the human trafficking schemes are usually disguised as online job postings for call centers or business processing outsourcing that offer generous incentives and pay. “They are offered to work in BPOs mga call centers po, inaalok po sila ng mga malalaking sahod, magagandang incentives only to find out that this is a crypto scam,” the spokesperson explained.
“Pagdating po doon, nakatanggap po tayo ng reports na sila po ay sinasaktan, may physical torture po. Hindi po pinapasweldo ng tama, sila po ay talagang binibiktima doon at pinipipilit din po silang mangbiktima ng ibang tao,” Sandoval added.Citing the Department of Foreign Affairs records, Sandoval said there are over a hundred victims already.Vance Chan, Inquirer.net, trainee
