India has repatriated nearly 300 of its citizens who were lured to Southeast Asian countries with fake job offers and forced into cybercrime and other fraudulent activities, government officials said on Monday.
According to India's foreign ministry, Indian embassies in Myanmar and Thailand coordinated with local authorities to secure the return of 283 nationals via an Indian Air Force aircraft from Mae Sot, Thailand. This repatriation is part of a broader effort by regional governments to crack down on criminal networks operating cyber scam centres along the Thailand-Myanmar border, where thousands have been freed this year.
Authorities in Thailand have also intensified their operations, with 100 arrests made last week in connection with the scam centres. These centres, which have been linked to criminal gangs trafficking hundreds of thousands of people, generate billions of dollars annually from illegal online schemes, according to United Nations estimates.
The Indian government has issued a warning to its citizens, advising them to carefully verify the credentials of foreign employers and scrutinize the backgrounds of recruiting agents and companies before accepting job offers. The crackdown comes as part of an international effort to dismantle the sophisticated networks behind these scams—a challenge shared by several countries, including China and Indonesia, which repatriated some of their nationals last month.
With coordinated action across borders, authorities hope that continued vigilance and stricter regulatory measures will stem the flow of fraud and protect vulnerable job seekers from falling victim to such schemes.
