Are you addicted to texting? If yes, then be warned about the latest Philippine Charity Foundation (PCF) Text Scam where my wife was almost victimized by a certain Janet Lim who allegedly was an employee of the Philippines Charity Foundation.

Here is my wife’s story below:

 

Recently, I received a text message saying, “Notice from the PCF or Philippine Charity Foundation”. The text message reads

Sir/Ma’am congratulations! You’re the lucky winner for the last 4-digit of your cell phone number. You had won 560,000 pesos when the PCF have national fund raising activities yesterday, October 01, 2008. Please text you’re complete name and address. For more information, call me now. I’m Janet C. Lim…  permit #2631 series of 2008.” The number that sent the message is a typical cell phone number for personal use.

I’ve already heard about text scams that asked for bank deposits or money transfers prior to claiming you’re price. The prize was too good to be true so I became curious. The number called and I answered it. The alleged, Miss Janet Lim started explaining how I won 560,000 pesos and mentioned that this was courtesy of the President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo to help Filipinos. Ms. Lim said, she was assigned to contact me and started asking for details. I gave her a false name and address. She also asked on what method I want to claim my prize, whether it will be via bank to bank transfer, LBC or Western Union. I answered Western Union. Then she ended the call and promised to call after five minutes, instructing me to take a piece of paper and a pen to take down the requirements for claiming. By Miss Lim’s way of speaking, I could tell that she’s an expert in fraud.

Five minutes later, Ms. Lim calls again dictating the following requirements: Birth certificate, 2×2 ID photo (2 pieces), a valid ID and the most important that she emphasized was the PIN number. What I heard at first was TIN number, she corrected me by saying it was PIN code or PIN number. This time, the final requirement doesn’t sound right. She continued, the PIN codes should come from cell phone prepaid cards amounting 300 pesos. Miss Lim was asking for 6 pin codes which meant I need to buy 6 sets of PIN numbers amounting to 1800 pesos. She said, 3 PIN numbers will be written in front of the check and another 3 at the back. She knew I wasn’t buying her stunt, so she tried manipulating me by telling me not to worry about the amount I will spend because it’s refundable. Then she ended the call.

After the last call, I immediately searched the internet about Philippine Charity Foundation. I’ve stumbled upon legit sites and forums discussing the modus operandi and victims of PCF. This confirmed my suspicion that PCF is a SCAM!!! Thank God I wasn’t one of victims.

    I also received similar email last June coming from PCF kuno. 950K daw napanalunan ko, marami na siguro sana akong pang burger haha. Pero dinedma ko, then pinadalhan ko ng msg na manloloko sya, alam ko na mga techniques nilang bulok. Buti hindi nya ako tinawagan, baka wala pang nagpapadala sa kanya ng pin code.

    Hindi ko nga binubura yung msg hanggang ngayon. Yung teacher ni Sean meron ding nareciv halos ganyan din. Pinabasa ko rin sa kanya yung nareciv kong text.

    Ano ba yang mga taong yan buhay pa eh sinusunog na mga kaluluwa s impyerno. Ang kakapal ng mukha, mga manloloko! Grrrr!

    I just received the same exect text scam from V.Pres. Atty.Rex A. Mendez of 09057639010, ‘charity foundation’.
    I called & reported the matter to Globe Hotline # 730-1000 ( or for Smart Hotline # 888-1111)and requested that the cp # be blocked to avoid further text scam. I urge you all to take a little time & effort in doing the same.
    I do hope that this little effort will lessen the abuse of text messaging.
    More power to us all…
    Though, sim #’s could still be easily purchased, at least the network(Globe or Smart) is willing to take immediate actions toward the cp # of the text scam as well as the name of the person sending the text scam.

    Yeah, these text scam in the Philippines should be dealt with accordingly. Globe and Smart’s actions could help catch the culprits.

    Buti hindi kayo naniwala. Mahirap magtiwala sa ibang tao pag mga ganyang amount ang involved.

    Good day!!!!

    Para sa mga tulad kong biktima… at least we’ve learned from it. My story goes like this…
    I received a txt message from Mr. Robert T. Valdez of Casino Filipino.
    Thru out my curiosity and a need of money I called the number as he had stated…
    A visayan accent man answered…
    He asked for so many things like my name, complete address. age, accnt. no. and 3 prepaid cards worth of 300 pesos each which I had given to them all only to realize later that I am being fooled…

    Hayzzttt…and later these last passing days I still receive same messages…

    Well… Diyos na ang bahala sa kanila… tingin q lang talaga manhid na cla dahil sa dameh ng mga masasamang curses sa kanila di man lang cla natinag…

    huhuhu…. sayang yung almost 1000pesos q…jjejejejeje

    nakatanggap din po ako nyan sya daw si merly capuno at nanalo daw ako ng 560,000.00. natawa lang ako kasi meron bang PCF na magbibigay pa ng pera eh di ba mas nangangailangan nga ang charity foundation ng pera para sa mahihirap nating kababayan. eto po no. nun merly 09294217260. Kapag nakakatanggap ako ng ganito nagsesearch agad ako sa internet. Salamat sa mga ganitong comments about scam kasi sa pamamagitan nito marami sa kapwa natin ang hindi nagpapadala sa ganitong scam.

    Recently this morning, i received a text from Luis C. Villa, as per DTI permit #1344 Sereis of 2009, from the Philippine Charity Foundation, my sim had won Php950,000.00 for 2nd prize.

    At first alam ko na scam but i called him para pagalitan. by the tone of his voice, matandang lalaki, medyo kabado at magaspang, boses nya manloloko na.

    He asked for my complete address, name, and other detials (kapal ng mukha). pero di ko binigay.

    kung gusto nyo siyang guluhin, here’s his number 09076138694.
