The 'Forever Lucky' was detained by the Philippine Coast Guard and National Bureau of Investigation at the Port of Orion in Bataan on July 2, 2018. Local authorities stopped the vessel from sailing off to Micronesia after it was discovered that 139 Filipinos on board were illegally recruited for work. In a joint anti-human smuggling operation, the vessel's crew carried fake documents, did not have a manifest for the passengers on board and the vessel, owned by Fahrenheit Co. Ltd., did not have a special permit to navigate from the Maritime Industry Authority. The 41 crew members were also being held at the port of Orion.
