Further cementing its long-standing commitment to provide Filipinos with secure and safe digital financial services, the Cybercrime Investigation and Coordination Center (CICC) has signed an agreement with the country’s number one finance app, GCash, to intensify its campaign against online fraud and scams.

Maricor Alvarez-Adriano, Head of New Businesses, Corporate Affairs, and Sustainability Winsley Bangit, Executive Director of CICC USec Alexander Ramos, DICT Secretary Atty. Ivan John Uy, CICC Highly Technical Consultant Ret. Justice Andres Reyes

Under the agreement, GCash will continue to collaborate with CICC, leverage their capabilities, synergize efforts in combating cybercrime activities, and improve cyber capabilities and resilience while accelerating digitization initiatives in line with its vision of “Finance for All.”.

The MOA signing ceremony was graced by Department of Information and Communications Technology (DICT) Secretary Ivan John Uy, who emphasized that the CICC, which is an agency under the DICT, and GCash will synergize their strengths to become “futurists” that will work together to protect Filipinos by preempting the activities of cybercriminals.

The partnership between the CICC and GCash, he said, is “a strong signal to the whole community and to cyber criminals that we are not sitting back, that we will be aggressive in securing the money that the public has entrusted to us, and that we will actively, diligently, and relentlessly run after cybercriminals, whoever they may be, and bring them to justice.”

Joining Sec. Uy in signing the agreement were CICC Undersecretary Alexander Ramos and Retired Supreme Court Justice Andres Reyes, Jr., GCash Head of New Businesses, Corporate Affairs, and Sustainability Winsley Bangit, GCash Chief Legal Officer Atty. Maria Corazon Alvarez-Adriano and GCash Legal Head Atty. Gilbert A. Escoto.

In his speech, Usec. Ramos urged the victims of online scams to immediately file a report with GCash and the CICC, "not on social media.”.

This, said Ramos, will mobilize the rapid incident response mechanism made possible by the partnership between GCash and the CICC so that the public can be properly protected in time and prevent scammers from getting more victims. The undersecretary also urged the public to reach out to the government’s 24/7 anti-scam response hotline in case of suspected scams by dialing 1326.

Through its continuous cooperation with authorities, GCash has blocked over 4 million fraudulent accounts and taken down 810 phishing sites and 45,000 malicious social media posts and accounts in 2023.

A strong alliance with government agencies like the CICC, said Bangit, is a big boost to creating a safer digital ecosystem for Filipinos, especially as they transact online. “We are honored to stand shoulder to shoulder with you in the pursuit of a safer and more just society,” he added.

In her closing remarks, Atty. Alvarez-Adriano said that in the ongoing integration of digital technologies with the support of public sector agencies like the CICC, “GCash is poised for a state-of-the-art, stable, and inclusive financial system that will support the economic growth of the country.”

Officials from the fintech company attended the campaign’s launch at the Palacio del Gobernador in Intramuros, Manila, earlier in September. The launch was also attended by distinguished representatives from lead agencies such as the Department of Justice (DOJ), Philippine National Police (PNP), Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP), Integrated Bar of the Philippines (IBP), Office of the Solicitor General (OSG), Public Attorney's Office (PAO), Anti-Money Laundering Council (AMLC), Department of Education (DepEd), as well as prominent election-focused NGOs like National Citizens' Movement for Free Elections (NAMFREL), Parish Pastoral Council for Responsible Voting (PPCRV), and Legal Network For Truthful Elections (LENTE).

COMELEC Resolution No. 10946 aims to combat online vote buying and selling by establishing a Kontra-Bigay Committee and expanding the existing vote-buying regulations under the Omnibus Election Code and its Implementing Rules and Regulations, as well as the other rules and regulations issued by COMELEC.

One of the most significant highlights of the newly passed resolution is its recognition of online banking transactions and the use of e-wallets as potential channels for vote buying under Section 30. During the launch, COMELEC emphasized its authority to scrutinize the financial details of account holders suspected of involvement in such illicit activities.

Kung dati ay sa text o email lang ito nangyayari, ngayon ay ginagawa na rin ito sa social media, tawag, at mga pekeng website.

Para protektahan ang mga users laban sa mga scammer, pinagtibay ng GCash, ang nangungunang e-wallet app, ang mga security features nito. Pinakilala nito ang DoubleSafe Face ID, kung saan bukod OTP at MPIN ay kakailanganin na rin ng selfie para ma-access ang GCash. Sa kabila nito, importante ring alamin ng lahat ng users kung ano ang mga kumakalat na phishing scam at paano ito maiiwasan.

● ‘Magtop-up para sa online gambling’ phishing scam


Patok na patok ngayon ang mga online gambling sites, kaya naman madalas din itong ginagamit ng mga scammer para mambiktima ng mga e-wallet user. Sa phishing scam na ito, ikaw ay dadalhin sa pekeng GCash website kung saan kukunin ang OTP at MPIN mo.

Ang modus:

Pagkatapos gumawa ng account sa pekeng gambling site, ipapalink sa iyo ang GCash account mo para makapag-top up ka. Mapupunta ka sa pekeng GCash website kung saan ipapa-enter sa iyo ang iyong mobile number at MPIN. Makakatanggap ka rin ng text na may kasamang OTP para i-link sa ibang device ang iyong GCash account. Sa oras na maibigay mo ang iyong impormasyon, maari nang maaccess ng mga scammer ang iyong account para nakawin ang iyong pera.

Paano ito maiiwasan:

Kapag pinapa-link ang iyong GCash account, tingnan nang maigi ang URL o pangalan ng link para masiguradong nasa totoong website ka ng GCash. Ang lehitimong GCash website ay nagsisimula sa https:// at nagtatapos ‘gcash.com.’ Sa kabilang banda, ang mga pekeng GCash portal naman ay maaaring may magkasunod na numero sa umpisa, may extra characters o may mali sa spelling (ex. Gccash vs GCash).

Kapag nagrerequest ng OTP para magbayad, basahin din nang mabuti ang text upang makasiguradong hindi mo nai-link sa ibang device ang iyong GCash account. Huwag ishare ang MPIN at OTP sa ibang tao, lalo na sa mga pekeng online gambling sites.

● ‘Nakahold ang account mo’ phishing scam

Sa phishing scam na ito, ang mga scammer ay nagpapanggap na representative ng mga kompanya at nagkukunwaring may emergency para madaliang ibigay ng mga biktima ang kanilang impormasyon.

Ang modus:

Makakatanggap ka ng tawag, text o mensahe sa social media galing sa isang account na nagpapanggap na empleyado ng GCash at sasabihan kang nakafreeze o nakahold ang iyong GCash account. Mag-aalok ito ng tulong upang ma-activate ang account mo, pero hihingin nito ang mobile number, MPIN at OTP mo. Kapag nakuha na nila ang mga mahahalagang impormasyon, maari na nilang buksan ang iyong GCash account at tangayin ang laman nitong pera.

Paano ito maiiwasan:

Hindi kailanman hihingin ng GCash na iactivate ang account mo sa pamamagitan ng tawag, text o chat. Laging alalahanin na lahat ng lehitimong transaksyon ay sa official GCash app lang dapat gawin, kabilang na ang pagresolba sa mga concerns sa iyong account.

Kung ikaw ay minamadali, maaring phishing scam ‘yan! I-check muna ang GCash app para tingnan ang status ng iyong account, at huwag i-share ang MPIN at OTP kahit kanino man – kahit pa sa mga taong nagpapakilala bilang empleyado ng GCash. Tandaan, hindi kailanman hihingi ng GCash ang mga impormasyong ito sa iyo.

● ‘Nanalo ka ng premyo!’ phishing scam

Sa pangatlong phishing scam, papaniwalain ka ng mga scammer na nanalo ka ng rewards o premyo mula sa GCash kahit na wala kang sinalihang raffle. Bibigyan ka nila ng link para makuha ang iyong impormasyon at gamitin ito para i-access ang iyong account.

Ang modus:

Sa scam na ito, may magpapanggap na GCash representative at magpapadala ng text o email na nagsasabing nanalo ka ng reward, cashback o premyo. Bibigyan ka rin ng link para makuha ang premyo, ngunit dadalhin ka nito sa isang pekeng website na kamukha ng GCash portal. Kapag nilagay mo ang iyong mobile number, MPIN at OTP, maari na nilang i-access ang iyong GCash account.

Paano ito maiiwasan:

Laging tandaan na hindi nagpapadala ang GCash ng link sa pamamagitan ng text, email at messaging apps. Sa ngayon, walang opisyal na rewards program ang GCash. Lahat ng lehitimong promos naman ay matatagpuan lamang sa loob ng official GCash app kaya huwag magclick sa mga link at huwag ibigay ang MPIN at OTP sa kahit kanino man. Ugaliing basahin ang mga text o email na matatanggap, lalo na ang mga mensahe na galing sa hindi inaasahan o kilalang sender.

Talamak man ang phishing scam sa Pilipinas, huwag magpabiktima. Sa oras na hingin ang inyong personal information sa labas ng GCash app or lehitimong GCash website, scam ‘yan!

Ngayong alam mo na kung anu-ano ang mga panibagong e-wallet phishing scam, mas mapapahalagahan mo ang iyong e-wallet, lalo na ang iyong mga personal na impormasyon. Kabilang na dito ang maigting na paalala na huwag mong i-share ang MPIN at OTP mo.

Kapag ikaw ay nakaranas ng phishing scam at mga kahina-hinalang aktibidad ukol sa iyong GCash account, maari mo itong i-report sa official GCash Help Center (help.gcash.com/hc/en-us) o i-message si Gigi sa website gamit ang, “I want to report a scam.”
