With more than 172 million followers across popular social media platforms, GMA News and Public Affairs utilizes a multimedia approach to equip voters with the right information for the upcoming Eleksyon 2022.

“This digital effort continues our commitment to the 'Dapat Totoo' campaign for Eleksyon 2022, in line with our goal of empowering Filipino voters to choose the right leaders that will chart the future of our country at this critical juncture in history,” said Marissa L.

For its maiden season, #eLeksyonSerye kicks off with the ‘#eLeksyon2022 Quiz.’ Using Facebook (https://bit.ly/eLeksyon2022QuizFB) and IG (https://bit.ly/eLeksyon2022QuizIG) filters powered by GMA New Media, Inc. and fun duets on TikTok, the #eLeksyon2022 Quiz challenges netizens about their actual knowledge on elections. How well do they know their rights and their responsibilities as voters? How familiar are they about the country’s political system? Their score will determine if they are indeed #Eleksyon2022 ready.

To make it more exciting and engaging, GMA News reporters, public affairs hosts, radio personalities, and celebrities are joining the challenge as well.

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.
