International Students Targeted in New International Scam
The Australian Federal Police (AFP) is warning the public about a complex new international scam targeting the Chinese community in Australia.
The scam involves victims – largely international students – being told they are allegedly implicated in crimes in China. The scammers then coerce the victims into a series of actions and make threats that their families in China will be harmed if they don’t cooperate.
