The victims were lured by fraudulent employment offers and trafficked to Hpa Lu. With crucial support from Myanmar authorities, they were safely handed over to local police. The embassy reiterated its warning against fake job offers, urging Indian nationals to verify foreign employers through official channels and avoid accepting job offers from unverified sources, particularly on social media. The international crime syndicate behind these scams remains active in the Myawaddy region.
