A woman who fled virtual slavery in the Philippines has told police she was one of dozens of Thais lured into working for a romance scam gang run by Chinese, and those who tried to leave were beaten, handcuffed and terrorised with electric shocks.
The 26-year-old woman, identified only as Sa, told police at the Anti-Trafficking in Persons Division on Wednesday that she found an advert on Facebook offering work in the Philippines chatting with digital coin customers.
