Opportunities to work as housekeepers in Singapore with a salary of over US$1,000 are among positions advertised online by self-proclaimed agents to lure Malaysians into becoming "scammers" based in KK Garden in Myawaddy, Myanmar.

Mohd Farhan Azman, 19, left his home in Parit Raja, Muar, Johor, to take up the offer in Singapore, which he eventually discovered did not exist.

Instead, Farhan was offered another supposed housekeeping job in Bangkok, Thailand, at the same salary - nearly three times Malaysia's minimum wage and with no qualifications.

Farhan and a friend, Muhammad Riduan Arif, 21, also from Parit Raja, were among six Malaysians rescued from KK Garden and landed at KLIA this afternoon, the most recent group after a total of 261 individuals who returned from Cambodia, Laos, Thailand, and Myanmar between April and September this year.

Accompanied by Teruntum assemblyperson Sim Chon Siang, they walked out into the arrival hall at around 1.45pm, greeted by waiting parents and family members in a teary embrace.
