00:12and learned how to cheat were unable to escape.

00:26The Regional Special Operations Unit and TANSA Police entered this house

00:30where a love scam operation took place.

00:33Two Nigerian nationals were arrested.

00:35One escaped through the window.

00:38Computers with scripts ready for the scam of their victims online

00:42were used by the operatives.

00:45Cellphones with dating apps were also used online.

00:51The Calabarzon Police discovered the illegal activity

00:54because of a Filipino woman who accused her of abusing a love scam hub.

00:58She told me to be a model.

01:00I'm the one who communicates with clients.

01:02But I don't want to.

01:03Because I don't want her to use my face to fool other people.

01:08She slapped me as if she was going to hit me in the face

01:11because she has a very big face.

01:13It was hard for me to hear her.

01:18The Calabarzon Police also discovered that the two Nigerians

01:21came from Pogo in Bamban, Tarlac

01:24before they went to Cavite to conduct the operation.

01:27Not only our fellow Filipinos, but also foreigners are being victimized.

01:33They used to study somewhere in Central Luzon

01:38until such time that they were recruited here in Bamban, Tarlac

01:43where they worked in a Pogo.

01:47When they saw and learned how to work in a Pogo,

01:53they left there and built their own.

01:58A suspect denied the abuse.

02:01I'm not holding her against her will or whatever.

02:04She said that she was slapped for so many times, causing her injury.

02:07I never caused her any injury.

02:09Another Nigerian, Bihasang Magtagalog, was arrested.

02:12He confirmed that they worked in a Pogo in Bamban, Tarlac

02:16where they learned how to conduct the operation of Love Scam.

02:19We were contacted to go to Bamban, Tarlac.

02:23When we arrived there, we didn't know what they were doing there.

02:31But after a long time, we learned that there were many problems.

02:36We didn't know what to do.

02:40We couldn't work here.

02:43So, we had no choice.

02:48We didn't try.

02:50We just tried.

02:53Two Nigerians were arrested for filing a complaint of illegal detention

02:57and violating the Cyber Crime Prevention Act.
