ITV News spoke to Rohan, not his real name, who was trafficked to Myanmar’s giant scamming compounds to trick people online.
Criminals are generating around 60 million pounds annually from the scams being produced on these sites.
The Myanmar government has pledged to crack down on this illegal industry. On July 28th, the country’s parliament approved a law authorising the death sentence for those who have scammed victims.
