The United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC) has raised concerns about Asian crime syndicates expanding their multibillion-dollar cyberscam industry globally, including to South America and Africa.
According to UNODC, cyberfraud has become one of the fastest-growing forms of transnational crime.
It says these crime networks recruit labour from over 50 countries, including Nigeria, Brazil, Sri Lanka, and Uzbekistan, and operate hundreds of scam farms generating tens of billions of dollars in annual profits.
