00:00 An overseas Filipino worker in Thailand was forced to become a scammer.

00:04 Aside from that, he was beaten and asked for 1 million pesos from his employer before he was allowed to go home.

00:10 We have the first news, JP Soriano.

00:12 Rhea's job is an online casino agent.

00:19 Her real name and her accomplices when she arrived in Bangkok, Thailand.

00:24 According to Rhea's brother, even though she has a tourist visa, the salary is decent.

00:30 But for some, Rhea was transferred to another place.

00:34 And that's where her calamity started.

00:37 They beat me.

00:39 She was forced to work as a scammer by a Chinese employer even though she didn't want to.

00:45 They also helped her inside a house.

00:48 Then, they asked for money.

00:53 They asked if they were scammers.

00:58 They asked for 1 million pesos from a 100,000 pesos amount to get Rhea home.

01:05 We asked for help from the government to get her home.

01:11 It hurts my heart.

01:14 I feel sorry for her.

01:16 We brought this to the Office of the Undersecretary for Migrant Workers Affairs of the Department of Foreign Affairs

01:23 who ordered our embassy in Thailand to help Rhea.

01:28 I read the news and the name of the ambassador, Tinta Pareda, in Bangkok.

01:34 They're going to work on it.

01:35 This is the first time that we're handling a case in Thailand itself.

01:40 Because usually, Thailand is just a hub.

01:42 She will come to Thailand and then she will be transferred to different places.

01:47 Before Rhea's case, hundreds of Filipinos were hired as scammers in Southeast Asia.

01:54 They were rescued by the DFA.

01:56 This is the first news.
