When we travel, work or live abroad, we may encounter various scams. Here, let's talk about the four major tricks about Myanmar, with special emphasis on the second.
Fake employment opportunities: Scammers often lure you into going to Myanmar in the name of a well-paying position. They will make you believe that there is an ideal job waiting for you in Myanmar, but when you get there, you find out that everything is fake.
Online romance: This is a scam that is very difficult to guard against. Scammers will bond with you on social media or online dating platforms, then find reasons to visit him/her in Myanmar and even promise to marry you. However, when you arrive, you will find that the person does not exist, and you may have been deprived of all the money.
Fake tour companies: These companies offer attractive tour packages that claim to take you around the beauty of Myanmar. However, when you pay, you will find that it is just a shell company without any travel services.
Financial investment scams: Scammers will use high-return investment projects as bait, such as mineral mining, real estate investment, etc., to ask you to invest money in projects in Myanmar. However, when you send money to the past, you may never be able to contact them again.
In general, whatever form of scam, the essence is to deceive and exploit your trust. Therefore, we should always be vigilant, especially in the network environment. If you receive any offer to go abroad, whether for work, tourism or investment, you should first conduct in-depth investigation and verification to avoid blindly following.
