Border areas of Bangladesh are becoming vulnerable to gambling rackets operating from Myanmar. These syndicates use fake apps and cloned websites to attract users with high payout claims and regional offers.
The apps function like legitimate games but redirect funds to illegal wallets in Myanmar. Users are drawn in through targeted Facebook and YouTube ads in Bengali, making the scams feel local and trustworthy.
Bangladeshi cyber police are working with border agencies to monitor these digital threats and educate the public on recognizing scam apps.
