The Ministry of External Affairs has issued an advisory warning Indian IT professionals against fake job rackets that are sending workers abroad for forced labor.
"Instances of fake job rackets offering lucrative jobs to entice Indian youths for the posts of 'Digital Sales and Marketing Executives in Thailand by dubious IT firms involved in call-center scams and crypto-currency frauds, have come to our notice recently by our Missions in Bangkok and Myanmar," MEA added.
"Therefore, Indian nationals are advised not to get entrapped in such fake job offers being floated through social media platforms or other sources," it said.
The government said the workers are being held captive and made to work under harsh conditions against their will.
"The victims are reportedly taken across the border illegally mostly into Myanmar and held captive to work under harsh conditions," the government added.
The Centre said these individuals are duped in the name of lucrative data entry jobs in Thailand through advertisements as well as job agents based in Dubai and India.
The Centre said before traveling for work on a tourist or visit visa for work, Indian nationals must check the credentials of foreign employers through the respective Indian missions.
