MANILA, Philippines — Eighteen foreign nationals, including 11 Chinese and 7 Vietnamese individuals, were arrested in Parañaque City for their alleged involvement in scam activities.

The operation, led by the National Bureau of Investigation (NBI), took place on January 15 at Multinational Village in Parañaque.

During the operation, NBI agents detained seven suspects at the scene and subsequently apprehended an additional 11 individuals linked to the fraudulent activities.

Authorities have not yet disclosed specific details about the nature of the scams, but the suspects are believed to be part of a network targeting victims through various fraudulent means, including online scams.

This operation is part of the NBI’s broader effort to combat scam operations, especially those involving foreign nationals in the Philippines.

Such activities, often conducted through digital platforms, have become increasingly sophisticated, posing a growing challenge for law enforcement agencies.

The NBI is currently gathering evidence to assess the full scope of the group’s operations and is working to identify additional members of the network.
