Picked up a call and the guy with heavy malaysian accent spoke Engrish.He told me that he changed his phone number and asked me to save his new number.

Kind of funny that now they try to speak English but failed big time with their heavy Malaysian accent.

Did you ask him did he still locked up with others in Myanmar KK park or somewhere in Cambodia?

Nobody will do scam call voluntarily, generally forced to do in labour camps.

That time when scammer spoke English to me (sound like foreigner), I pretended I couldn't understand what they said and spoke Chinese instead. Then they hung up the phone.

the JHK scammers doing fake friend scams sound very cheerful on the phone, dont sound like they are forces to do it.

the PRC ones behind the fake officials scam sound like they are in distress, sometimes i wonder if I should pity those

During the olden days when Singtel scam is a thing, these syndicate manage to hire people with strong sinkie accent, to trick old folks into believing them. Almost worked on my lao pei; had to intervene to save him from his foolishness.
