www.abc.net.au 'How are we going to escape?': Indonesian working holiday-makers say they were 'scammed'

At the property, the couple met two other workers who were also Indonesian.
Immediately, they asked what type of jobs Dimas and Bella had been promised.

Instead, they had to do heavy manual labour to renovate the farm, which they were told had been abandoned a year or two earlier.
Bella started to cry.
