I get very funny calls on my phone sometimes.

I have a feeling that someone from the compound is trying to reach out to me.

Maybe it's just my PTSD, you know.

Yeah, but yes, I'm afraid sometimes that, you know, they will come after me.

They have all the financial resources to do that, you know.

I think the first problem would be it's really hard to stand up for yourself as a victim over here because there was so many stigma that goes around, you know, survivors.

Even my own government and my own police, when I got back, you know, they thought that I was a scammer and I just needed help to get out.

So I think there's not many much support.

That's why not many people would actually be brave enough to come and talk about it.

For the Australian people, scam camps are real.

The people who are calling, most likely they are victims as well, and they were forced to do their jobs, right?

But for the average Australian citizen, I would suggest to you if there was any call pretending to be a bank,

or a post office, you know, basically anything that requires registration, please go to the branch itself and check before committing financially to any of these scams.

And don't fall for anyone online unless you know them for years.

Thank you.

Thank you so very much.
