Lack of awareness among reasons Malaysians fall for Cambodia job scams


PUTRAJAYA: Job offers with high salaries - ranging from US$2,000 to US$4,000 (RM9,000-18,000) - in addition to lack of awareness about news developments are among the causes of hundreds of Malaysians being entangled with job scam syndicates in Cambodia.

According to Malaysian Ambassador to Cambodia Datuk Eldeen Husaini Mohd Hashim, such job offers are usually spread through social media such as Facebook, Telegram and WhatsApp.
