A 19-year-old Malaysian man escaped a Myanmar scam ring after 10 months of forced AI-driven fraud and abuse.
A 19-year-old Malaysian man was lured into a cross-border scam operation in Myanmar, where he was held captive for 10 months, forced to use AI to create fake online identities and manipulate victims, often elderly, through social media.
Working up to 18 hours a day, he faced beatings, tasers, and threats, including being told he owed $50,000 to leave.
The scam centers operated like corporate offices with strict quotas, some as high as $50,000 daily, leading to severe abuse.
He escaped in February 2025 during a power outage and returned home with serious injuries.
His story, shared by human rights groups, highlights the widespread and brutal nature of these operations, which target vulnerable individuals across Southeast Asia.
