Buying something online? Watch out for these online scams

Tweet

Online shopping continues to be a part of everyday life for many Filipinos. According to a study by data firm Statista, the number of e-commerce users in the country is forecasted to continue increasing in the next five years, estimated to reach a new peak of 31.6 million users in 2029. But as the country with the highest rate of online shopping scams according to the 2023 Asia Scam Report, Filipino shoppers must remain vigilant against online shopping scams.

This Cybersecurity Awareness Month, CIMB Bank Philippines encourages everyone to exercise caution when transacting online. Be mindful of these online scams to continue make your shopping experience safe and enjoyable:

Package delivery scam

The most common way to receive goods ordered online is through delivery. However, be careful when receiving fake delivery updates due to the proliferation of “package scams.” This is when scammers send deceptive emails or text messages about an attempted or intercepted delivery to trick buyers into giving away their personal details, money, or data. To avoid falling victim to this type of scam, always verify the sender of these updates and do not entertain messages from unknown numbers. Do not click any links or attachments as well, and most importantly, do not share personal or financial information with these numbers and report them to the authorities immediately.

Fake online shopping websites

Fraudsters would also create fake or low-quality online stores to collect victims’ personal information. According to the security experts at Kasperksy, scams on these websites can be troublesome as they sometimes still deliver the products or services they offer to create the illusion of trustworthiness, but the quality delivered is usually subpar. More alarmingly, this becomes a gateway to obtain information about buyers for unpermitted use. Be wary of websites that use emotional language – meaning it uses words that make you feel an elevated level of urgency, optimism, or fear. Avoid websites that also have poor design quality and use odd grammar, alongside the lack of a ‘Contact Us’ or ‘About Us’ page. If they seem to want to avoid verbal contact, there’s probably a reason.

Payment redirection

Scammers may also ask for payments outside of secure platforms, such as through direct money transfers, with promises of discounts or faster shipping. Once the money is sent, the scammer vanishes. To keep your money safe, check for secure payment processing options. Reputable e-commerce platforms usually offer payment protection for transactions done within their system, such as Shopee Guarantee and Lazada Protect, so it would be best to stick to these platforms.

Be sure to exercise safe online shopping practices to attain financial security, which can, in turn, help you live your life purpose. For online transactions, you can opt to use the CIMB Virtual Debit Card to conduct your business online safely and securely. All you need is an existing CIMB deposit account to request for a free Virtual Debit Card directly on the CIMB PH mobile app.

Opening your own CIMB account only takes a few minutes on the app. Filipino citizens who are at least 18 years old need to prepare only one valid ID. This gives you access to CIMB’s groundbreaking deposit and loan products as well as special offers with record-breaking high interest rates.

CIMB Bank PH is the Philippines’ most awarded digital-only commercial bank. To know more about CIMB Bank PH’s offerings, visit cimbbank.com.ph.

Is your online lover too good to be true? Know the red flags of a love scammer

Tweet

Dating in the digital age has become easier with so many apps and services to choose from. By the end of 2023, it was reported that 441 million people were using dating apps actively, generating around $8.7 billion in revenues globally through matchmaking services.

The appeal of dating apps is that you’re not limited by geography. You can meet people online in your city or in another country; you get to see how they look like from their profiles; find out their interests; and if you begin chatting, you can judge if you’re compatible enough to go on a first date.

 

Many Filipinos have fallen victim to romance scams, among other fakery proliferating online. Now there’s a Facebook page that crowdsources information and experiences so that you can be more aware about scams. Called Online Alerto, it’s a Facebook community page dedicated to the dissemination of invaluable insights, resources, and strategies related to digital literacy, cybersecurity, and responsible online behavior.

 

Acting as a collaborative platform, it facilitates members in validating their online purchases and transactions while fostering an environment where personal experiences are exchanged to help enhance online safety and awareness among all members. Online Alerto is absolutely free—all you need to do is join the community page to raise your own awareness about cybercrimes.

 

While identity theft and hacking are the leading cybercrimes globally, love scams are rapidly on the rise. In Southeast Asia, these crimes have two victims: those deceived by the scam and those that are trafficked into doing the scams.

 

Online Alerto has pooled resources on the internet for warnings and tips on avoiding love scams.   

 

                                                   

Avoid these red flags

• ·       The person expresses strong emotions and love for you very quickly, often within days or weeks of initial contact.
• ·     They quickly ask you to leave a dating service or social media site to communicate directly on WhatsApp or SMS, where they can manipulate you more easily.
• ·       If an individual attempts to isolate you from friends and family or requests inappropriate photos or financial information, they could later blackmail you or extort money from you.
• ·       When you make plans to meet in person, they always come up with an excuse why they can’t.
• ·       They ask for money for various reasons such as travel expenses, medical emergencies, or business opportunities. This is often the biggest and most obvious red flag.
• ·       They tell you stories to elicit sympathy, such as being widowed, having a sick child, or facing some urgent crisis.
• ·       They ask you many personal questions, but they avoid sharing their personal details or give information that cannot be verified such as a home address or workplace.

 

What scammers say to hook you in

"I or someone close to me is sick, hurt, or in jail."

"I can teach you how to invest."

"I'm in the military far away."

"I need help with an important delivery."

"We've never met, but let's talk about marriage."

"I've come into some money or gold."

"I'm on an oil rig or ship."

"You can trust me with your private pictures."

 

Ways to protect yourself

• ·       Reverse search the person’s photo by using online searches like Google Images.
• ·      Be careful what you post and make public online. Scammers use details shared on social media  and dating sites to better understand and target you.
• ·       Maintain a healthy level of skepticism, especially if things seem too good to be true.
• ·       Suggest a video call early in your communication.
• ·    Check their social media profiles for consistency with what they've told you. Look for a reasonable number of friends, photos, and posts over time. A lack of social media presence or a newly created profile can be a red flag.
• ·       If you decide to meet in person, choose a public place and inform a friend or family member about your plans. Ensure the person you meet matches their online presence.
• ·      Some dating apps offer identity verification features, like blue checkmarks, to indicate users who have verified their identity through the app.

Join Online Alerto on Facebook to better protect yourself from romance and other scams and learn from other people’s experiences.

#GSafeTayo: GCash to roll out ‘double authentication’ to arrest unauthorized transactions

Tweet

Signs agreement with PNP-ACG to strengthen fight vs cybercrimes

GCash is set to roll out a new security feature that aims to prevent unauthorized transactions brought about by phishing and other types of scams.

GCash and PNP ACG strengthens collaboration through a revitalized security campaign, #SafewithGCash that aims  to mitigate scam incidents by employing a combination of user education and continuously upgrading its internal security platform to serve its 71 M users.

From L-R: GCash Head of Enterprise Risk Management Bea De Ocampo, GCash Chief Legal Officer, Atty. Maricor Alvarez-Adriano, GCash Chief Customer Officer Winsley Royce Bangit, PBGEN Joel Doria, Director PNP ACG; Police Colonel Bernard Yang

With #GSafeTayo the Philippines’ number one financial app introduced the “double authentication” feature which can ensure that only the account owner has the ability to link his GCash account to a specific device.

“This feature removes customers’ dependence on SMS OTPs which has been exploited by some fraudsters to scam users. It will provide a unique identifier that can’t be phished by scammers. It also provides an additional layer of security to the current SMS OTP,” said Winsley Bangit, Chief Customer Officer of GCash. “We never stop innovating to make sure our 71 million users have the safest and most convenient experience when they use the app.”

GCash has also introduced a new product under its GInsure platform, "Online Shopping Protect". For just P34 per month, get up to Php20,000 in insurance coverage for incomplete deliveries, defective items, accidentally-damaged, or stolen products.

The new offering, which will launch soon on GInsure, is powered by global insurance company, Chubb.

Aside from continuing to beef up its security measures, GCash has also been ramping up its partnership with authorities and regulators to help ensure the whole e-wallet ecosystem is safe for all.

During the #GSafeTayo media launch, GCash also signed a memorandum of agreement with the Philippine National Police Anti-Cybercrime Group (PNP-ACG) to strengthen collaboration in going after perpetrators involved in phishing, smishing, online fraud, e-scams, vishing, and other cybercrimes that take advantage of GCash users.

“I would like to express my confidence that through our stronger partnership with the PNP-ACG, we will be able to achieve more in the prevention, investigation, and prosecution of cybercrimes. GCash also assures the PNP-ACG that we will do whatever we can in order to successfully implement our agreement,” said GCash Chief Legal Officer Atty. Maricor Alvarez-Adriano.

Through its intensified security campaign under #GSafeTayo, GCash has also been constantly reminding its users to never share their MPIN or OTP, as well as to never click links outside of the GCash app, especially from websites or senders which you have not verified to be legitimate.

In fact, GCash has already removed all clickable links in its official SMS and emails to users to help them determine that when they receive messages with links, then these are scams.

The e-wallet has also migrated transaction notification messages to the in-app inbox and masked the names of send money recipients to further protect the users’ funds and personal data.

Through its revitalized security campaign, GCash is aiming to mitigate scam incidents by employing a combination of user education, increased cooperation with law enforcement agencies, as well as continuously upgrading its internal security platform.

In the past few days, social media was abuzz with Maya users sharing their delightful surprise of randomly receiving free Bitcoin. Digital billboards in various cities prompted specific Maya users by name to check their crypto wallets to see if they are lucky recipients of free Bitcoin. One Maya user, Cebu student Reinzel Cabrera, even received a shocking PHP 1,000,000.00 worth of Bitcoin with virtually no effort – just by regularly paying with Maya!

Maya now reveals that everyone can get FREE Bitcoin and, like Reinzel, have the chance to receive PHP 1,000,000.00 in Bitcoin. Here's how:

Just pay with Maya via QR, mobile number, or card at stores all over the Philippines and online

Wait for the SMS notification and then check your crypto wallet to claim your free Bitcoin 😎 

The more you pay with Maya, the more chances to get PHP 1,000,000 in Bitcoin every month, during the promo period

"Maya is already the most accessible way to get into cryptocurrency in the Philippines starting as low as PHP1.00 and our Free Bitcoin promo drives even further accessibility while providing more opportunities for our customers to grow and master their money," said Pepe Torres, Chief Marketing Officer for Maya.

The money app encourages its users to keep paying with Maya for their everyday purchases to receive free Bitcoin, just like Reinzel!

Launched in April 2022, Maya's crypto feature lets users buy, hold, and sell cryptocurrencies for as low as PHP 1.00, making it ideal for crypto novices and enthusiasts. Maya has been granted the Virtual Asset Service Provider (VASP) license from the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas for its crypto services, ensuring all transactions are legitimate and safe.

Completely free to download and register, Maya packs a feature-rich e-wallet, an inclusive digital bank, and everything else you need to save, spend, grow, and manage your money—right from your smartphone.

Maya is powered by the country's only end-to-end digital payments company, PayMaya Philippines, and Maya Bank for digital banking services. For more information and updates from the country's all-in-one money platform, visit maya.ph.
