The Philippines as cyber scam hub
In two separate raids last week, law enforcement agencies led by the Philippine National Police-Anti-Cybercrime Group (ACG), rescued more than a thousand human trafficking victims from two cyber scam hubs in Parañaque City, and at the Clark Freeport Zone in Pampanga. Twelve 'maintainers' of the Clark-based company—seven Chinese nationals, four Indonesians, and a Malaysian—are now facing charges of human trafficking in relation to cybercrime, serious illegal detention and kidnapping, and violation of immigration laws.
