A Dutch tourist claims he found secret cameras in his on-site accommodation after he accepted a farm work job in Australia.

Maron de Rooij, 26, stumbled upon a 'promising ' post on Facebook which was advertising work with  Animal Ark Transport.

In return for driving farm animals around Queensland employees would be provided with free on-site accommodation in the Glasshouse Mountains. 

The vacant position said the company was hiring a male backpacker.

Keen to tour Australia, Mr de Rooij said the post was 'very convincing' and 'made the job look like fun'.
