Their mission: To help spread awareness on e-wallet phishing scams, which are one of the most rampant cybercrimes in the country.
While most of them are in the business of entertaining audiences, whether in the big screen, on the boob tube, or in social media platforms, these celebrities and content creators are quick to lend a hand to help protect netizens’ hard-earned money from being stolen, and they do so through fun and educational videos.
TV host Kaladkaren and filmmaker-podcaster Direk Tonet Jadaone revealed the kinds of "budol" and "karupukan" that people should not fall for. Davao Conyo, who is known for making comedy skits, warned against the oversharer’s worst nightmare. He said that oversharing, including your personal information such as Mobile Personal Identification Number and One-Time Password , can lead to dire consequences.
Think before clicking a link. Review the sender and the content of a suspicious message before responding or clicking on the link. If you are being offered rewards or prizes, backtrack if you have indeed joined a program or raffle and verify with the company through another channel. The e-wallet platform said it will never send links via SMS, email and messaging apps, so never click on links claiming to be from GCash.
Never share your OTP and MPIN. Never provide your personal information if you did not initiate a request. As a rule, don’t provide sensitive information, such as your OTP and MPIN, even with your family, friends and other people claiming to be representatives of banks, companies, service providers and government agencies. As a rule, the company said it will never ask for these details from their users.
