 Dramatic Kapuso actress Max Collins remains a loyal Kapuso as she renewed her contract with GMA Network last Friday, July 9.

Present during the virtual signing ceremony were GMA Executive Vice President and CFO Felipe S. Yalong, Senior Vice President for GMA Entertainment Group Lilybeth G. Rasonable, First Vice President and Head of Regional TV and Synergy Oliver B. Amoroso,  First Vice President For Drama Productions Redgie A.

When asked what is her secret to keeping the fire burning in the industry for more than a decade now, Max shared the importance of respect, “Throughout the years, as a Kapuso I've learned how important it is to give each project so much love, and how to give my co-workers, the staff, and the network the same respect that I give my own family members.”

Furthermore, she looks forward to growing more in her craft, “Now that the world seems to be so uncertain with all of the chaos that has been happening, I'm even more grateful now to be in the position that I am in in terms of my career. I've come a long way since the day I first started, and I'm proud of my achievements. A decade is a long time to be in one industry, and I'm excited to begin a new decade doing what I love most, acting.”



Mr. Yalong expressed his gratitude to Max for her unwavering loyalty to the Network, “Thank you for entrusting GMA with your career. You are the classic example of how a true and loyal Kapuso artist should be. We are looking forward to your new and exciting projects for the delight of our loyal Kapuso viewers.”

Rasonable, in turn, echoed her excitement for what’s ahead of Max’s career in GMA, “We are very happy that you said you love being a Kapuso because we also love having you here. We have always believed in your talent and of course, you are one of the most beautiful faces in the television and movie industry. We are proud to have you here and we are excited to give you many more projects.”

Meanwhile, Santiago-Lara also conveyed her enthusiasm for Max’s contract renewal, “We are very excited to have this event to welcome Max Collins as she continues her journey as a Kapuso.”

GCash cautions against gambling apps used for phishing

A recent investigation by the National Privacy Commission (NPC) and the leading mobile wallet GCash, has led to the discovery of certain gambling sites and apps which were used for account takeovers in the recent surge of phishing scams. Additionally, some influencers may have unknowingly promoted these gaming apps without being aware of their fraudulent nature. GCash is now cautioning its users to be extremely careful when accessing online gambling sites and apps, and to avoid them altogether if possible. In this latest scheme, perpetrators created gambling apps while falsely claiming to be accredited by the Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corporation (PAGCOR).
