Globe sets up more Libreng Tawag, Libreng Charging stations in areas hit by Typhoon Odette

To help communities affected by typhoon Odette, Globe has set up more Libreng Tawag and Libreng Charging (LTLC) stations in the Visayas and Mindanao regions.  At least  16 stations are now operational to help families connect with their loved ones.

 




Ongoing service restorations in various areas affected by the typhoon have been hampered by the prolonged lack of commercial power.  Cell sites equipped with alternate power such as gensets need to be refilled.  However, deliveries of supplies are also hampered by roadblocks.

Since Friday, Globe has restored services in Bukidnon, Agusan del Sur, Camiguin, Zamboanga del Sur and Zamboanga Sibugay.

In the aftermath of typhoon Odette, about 40 towers were affected across Visayas and Mindanao.  The highest  impact were reported in Cebu, Negros, Bohol and Leyte.  There were about 20 towers badly hit  in Cebu.

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). These apps deceive users with a verification process, redirecting them to a fake GCash website or payment page to top up betting credits. From there, fraudsters were able to access sensitive information such as credit card details, passwords, GCash numbers, MPINs, OTPs, and other personal data that can be exploited to gain unau...
