This afternoon, a call from Philippine Monitoring Company, a lady, woke me up. She said I need to claim my reward for subscribing to PLDT landline/DSL. Still very much sleepy, I listened anyway. She gave me an alphanumeric code(CH8048DLPA)with instructions that I need to pick up my reward right away at Greentop Marketing in Olivarez Plaza, Los Baños, Laguna. At the back of my mind, I am starting to get suspicious although I never got the chance to ask her what PLDT promo it is all about. I do not remember joining any PLDT promo. Anyway, I let her continue her spiel because I do not want to sound rude. She even provided me these numbers to call, 501-1379 and 552-9129 and look for Aileen Concepcion or Michelle Mendoza. I took notes while we were talking, just in case. I am by nature not very trustful! I began to doubt when she kept bugging me to get my reward. She sounds desperate. I kept my politeness (truth is I am rarely polite to cold callers) and to end our conversation, just said I will try. I went back to sleep afterwards.
Tonight, I googled the said company and found web pages of their scam. I felt relieved (!) that I was saved from trouble. I am sharing this to help and to warn. I am yet to call PLDT and DTI to report this incident which I am sure PLDT has nothing to do. For those victimized and soon-to-be victims, please click the links below. It pays to read and be informed.

owelajust now while reading this info, I am talking to a call center agent named Faith Soriano.. she claims that my landline number was picked from 100 or so numbers & as a gratitude for being a subscriber for more than 2 years, they're giving me a souvenir(shucks I am not the subscriber hehehehe).. She is now giving me this weird letters, let me type it DA1011DLPA & now she is giving me the place to claim a souvenir it's at 2nd floor Victory mall Monumento, redemption booth michikawa..nichi kawa or whatever.. she is now giving me a number to call, 552-9129... lololololololoLOL!!! hehehehe
ReplyDeleteShould I call the authorities or something? give this number or what, I ask her to standby while I search the internet & she hang up on me..
Hi Mike! I believe DTI and BTRC (Bureau of Trade Regulation and Consumer Protection) can sanction this company under the Consumer Act Law. This certainly falls under the deceptive sales acts or practices. Problem is, with all the complaints logged against this company, it still continues to operate.
ReplyDeleteI was scammed last week, July 14, 2016 in Michikawa Victoria Plaza, Davao City. The gay agents were so loud and noisy so that you will be lured into their scam. They got 3K fr me.
DeleteHello,
ReplyDeleteA lady also called me up today and said the same thing that I should get my reward from PLDT. I was starting to suspect that its a scam. That is why I search it over the net and Thanks God I read your blogs...
You're welcome! I posted this with the purpose of informing people that Philippine Monitoring Company is a scam. I did check it with PLDT and the staff there told me they are not in anyway connected with this company.

DeleteMerong tumawag sa phone namin at hinahanap nya mama ko. Di ko na tandaan yung name nya. Univox appliance? Daw sya naka usap na daw nya mama ko. Pinafollow up nya na kunin na daw yung gift ng mama ko dun sa BLUEWAVE Marikina. Univox daw yung name nung kukunan nya. Tinanung ko sya kung anong gift yun. Pero di nya ako sinagot ilang beses ko sya tinanong basta sabi nya alam na daw ng mama ko yun nagtataka lang ako dahil wala naman sinalihan mama ko. Tsaka parang ilongo o bisaya yung tono nya. Buti naisipan kong mag search dahil di ko maintindihan sinasabi nya. Ang natandaan ko lang univox appliance daw. Salamat sa blog nato.
DeleteA lady also called us several times..she is also telling me i won and give me a code number...good to see this post
DeleteHi..
ReplyDeleteI also received the same call and it is alike as what you have posted. there was a call, then they give me a code..ect..
I just want to let people know that they are now operating and increasing their scope nationwide. I'm from Bacolod City, and they are doing scams here.. beware guys :)

ReplyDeletereference code daw: SI 90390 OTHR

reason of rewards: still active dw ang number
she speaks tagalog but can't pronounce very well.
hi same thing happened to me. They called me just a few minutes so and said the smell thing. I'm also from bacolod so they told me to go to Gaisano City. Her name was May Solis. I even asked her if she knows the name on the account and she just asked me again if I am the account owner. Anyway I don't really trust these kind of thing so I googled it even though I didn't have any plans of going there. Just letting everyone know they should not believe offers that are too good to be true. Chances are, it's not really true.
DeleteIm from bcolod also kanina muntik din kmi naloko 55k ung hinihingi nla sa gaisano city rin

Hi my parents were also a victim of Michikawa Enterprise. They have a branch here in Jenra, SIndalan, Pampanga.. my father paid a downpayment of P10k + they swipe my younger sisters credit card worth 10k as well. Im so pissed off upon knowing they bought it kasi wala nman tlg kming 60k and we dont know if we can really pay that amount khit hulugan lng..besides their products are not even well known, they made my parents believe that they are affiliated with the big companies and celebrities uses their product as well. How can such deceiving company operate on malls when their modus are unacceptable to consumers? May natanong ako who's been a victim as well and she said na DTI is very slow in acting to such incidence, that person I contacted fr a forum I found about this got her case settled in 1yr with DTI's help and she only got 90% of her money.
ReplyDeleteReally? Good thing i found this before i go there, we are planning to go to jenra pa naman kasi tumawag na naman sila.
Deletesame case at Jenra Mall Angeles City.. my friend also victim of Michikawa,, they told she won 2K voucher and she asked to purchase ACQUA OXYGEN waters to claim the price. she asked to swiped her credit card worth 60K payable in 1 year... they have fake strategy.. they have evil convincing power.
DeleteSame scenario here pick up place jenra mall sa tabi ng NEPO mall Angeles.buti na lang naggoogle kami,beware po mga kapampangans.
DeleteMy mother and I experience the same way! The same as what you have all posted! I accompany my mom this afternoon after my work papuntang Greentop Marketing located at Embarcadero, Legazpi City. I really have no idea what is happening and was not aware. Yung nanay ko kasi ang tinawagan at sinundo niya lang ako sa office kanina. I was really tired and have no time to think or even ask her. Basta sobrang bilis ng pangyayari. I am very disappointed na hinayaan ko na mangyari ito saamin! What the f*** talaga! Akala ko pa naman napaka swerte naman ng nanay ko ngaung araw na to! How can this company operate in well known place!!! Buti na lang nga wala kaming credit card ng nanay ko but the bad thing is nakapag downpayment na kami ng 2K kasi nga nagustuhan ng nanay ko yung massage chair! Nakaka bwesit lang talaga!!! Dapat pa nga babalik pa kami ngaung darating na friday. I'm still thankful na naisipan ko na mag search ngayung gabi sa net about this fraud company bago pa kami mas maloko at matangayan ng mas malaking halaga ng pera. At least I am aware now. Salamat sa blog na to. I just feel sorry for my mom..
ReplyDeleteUntil now they r still operating.. katatawag lng sken, and i said im not interested but this certain Sandra Falcon keeps on initiating na kunin ko raw ung prize kc sayang..

DeleteHi! Good Day Im Gatty from Laguna. Nagpunta ako sa isang mall sa Los. Banos Laguna tapos biglang may lumapit sakin na lalaki, sabi nya anniversary daw ng company nila kaya namimigay sila ng free na kung ano ano. tinry namin ng kapatid ko kaya sumama kami sa office nila. pag pasok namin hiningan ako ng ID para maclaim ko daw yung free item ko. Binigay naman nila yung free item. after nung nagpabunot sila may hawak yung isang tauhan nila na mga sobre. may extra prize pa daw sila dun. Pag bunot ko nakuha ko yung grand prize daw nila na 2000 Gift Certificate at massage chair worth 80 thousand.. After nun may tumawag na babae sa phone nila tapos pinakausap sakin,head daw nila yun sa manila iveverify daw kung wala akong kamag anak sa company nila. pagkatapos nun pwede ko na daw iuwi yung prize ko na massage chair. pero pagkatapos nun kinausap ako nung mga tauhan may extra pa daw silang ibibigay na prize yung stove daw na worth 60,000. pero dapat daw gamitin ko yung gift certificate ko na 2,000 bale yung 60,000 na stove ay babayadan ko daw ng 58,000.sabi ko bakit ako magbabayad akala ko ba napanalunan ko yun. sabi nila pag hindi daw ako nagbigay 58,000 hindi ko din makukuha yung mga prize ko. edi parang binili ko na din yung sinasabi nilang napanalunan ko kung magbibigay ako ng pera. pagkauwi nag search agad ako sa internet at nabasa ko na marami na palang reklamo dito sa Greentop na to at madami na silang naloko. ang nakapagtataka bakit sila pinapayagan ng mga mall na magoperate,approved ba sila sa DTI? bakit wala akong mahanap na contact number sa directory o kahit sa internet? Tapos may nakausap ako na kakilala na nabiktima na din daw sila nung greentop na yun. 60,thousand daw hinihingi sa kanila. ibig sabihin lagi nilang dinadahilan na anniversary nila kaya sila namimigay kunwari ng prize. ano yun araw araw anniversary nila..
ReplyDeletekung gus2 nyo pong magreklamo s munisipyo po kyo pumunta kay Hepe siya po ang may hawak ng kaso ng Greentop aaksiyunan nya po agd yan
DeleteAang presento po,NA scammed dn aq few hours ago,gusto q ma ibalk UNG pera q.
Deletei was also a victim of greentop company in Olivarez Plaza LB. I had the same experience. They made me believed that i was so lucky that day.I gave 10k as reservation fee thru EPS..I couldnt sleep that night so I searched thru net..discovering that they are scam, made me feel stupid...bkit ko hinayaan n mangyari yun? I went to municipal office ...wala daw sila magagawa kasi hindi ako pinilit.yes, hidi ako pinilit pero niloko ako.filing a comppaint sa dti was my second move.There, I found out n marami n raw complaints against greentop.Wait n lng daw ako ng tawag nila for the schedule of remediation.. I waited two months..wala silang action.Armed with confidence and "gigil" sa greentop, sumugod ako sa office nila asking for my reservation fee and informed them n nsgfile ako complaint sa dti.. at kung wala action dti..punta ako t3 or imbestigador..after two days they called me.. 50% lng daw ang maibabalik nila thru check and the remaining 50% e offsetted to their items.dahil matgal ang action ng dti,I decided to accept the offer.I received 5k and 2 multipurpose cooker. I learned from this experience that " if the offer is too good...the offer is not really good......and they are bullshit!!!!
ReplyDeleteask ko lng po nkuha nyo po b money thru cash or cheque? i am also a victim of greentop marketing.
DeleteMy dad just received a call from Greentop (los banos) 2 days ago. They told him that he won the 'raffle' when he subscribed in Globe broadband plan. It was really suspicious because instead of asking him to go to Globe office, they asked him to go to los banos near LBC office instead. My dad didn't heed my warning and went there! He told they were really good in convincing that he indeed won around 200k worth of items BUT needed to purchase a particular item worth 60k! With a little knowledge of same modus operandi such as AIWA has had or still has (Na-tulfo pa nga ang mga ito e), for sure, these 200k of items do only worth below 50k - massaging chair for 85k? You kidding me?! LOL. Good thing my dad is 'mautak'! He insisted, 'wala akong pera; bigay niyo na lang sa kin ang premyo ko." To cut the chase, they were forced to give him an item worth 7k for free! Kundi magwawala tatay ko; he had to travel para kunin ang 'premyo'! hahaha =P
ReplyDeleteBottom line: I suspect that Globe has been an accomplice to these scamming jerks. They sell their subscribers' info or also known as 'leads' for these scumbags. It is quite obvious because my dad just subscribed their broadband plan few days before that. Dapat hindi lang ang mga manggagantso na ito ang imbestigahan, pati na rin ang mga telecom na they are sworn for the confidentiality of their subscribers' info!
Just now i received a phone call from this same number people here are talking about... 552 9129. I got so curious as from where this number is, which led me to this site. Anyways, they are rude. Asked them from what company are they speaking for.. And said, it is a funeral shop, and asked if i want to order.. Pathetic people..! You dont order a coffin just like that. A big BS..!
ReplyDeleteNakakainis talaga ang Greentop na yan! I am victim too,,I was walking with my kids on Olivares LB biglang may lumapit sakin na girl she told me na anniversary daw nila and may ibibigay daw sila na free item sabi ko nga nun una ayoko pero she insist mabilis lang daw.Strategy pala nila talaga same modus na pinabunot ako ng raffle ticket kuno and ung anak ko pa bumunot na overwhelmed ako masyado pinagtulung-tulungan ng mga staff na ang swerte ko daw coz i've won chair massager and madami pa,they even ask me if i have credit card the good thing is I don't have pero they check my atm and baka dw may master card or visa nakalagay para marami pa qng item na makuha pero wala but eventually napayag nila ako na mgpurchase ng electric stove para daw makuha ko ung mga prizes q..Tinatanong ako if I have 20k sabi ko wala aqng pera ganun kalaki sabi n lang nila kahit installment ko daw for 3yrs,,napa2yag nila ako and pumirma the cash out is just 3k and kapalit nun un multi cooker..Only to find out when I told to my Mom in law it was just marketing strategy and paba2yaran nila ung chair massager sabi ko wag na iso2li q na un cooker,Unfortunately kinabukasan ko pa naibalik ung cooker sabi ko ayaw ng asawa ko pumayag galit.Ang tagal ng usapan namin ayaw talaga pumayag ibalik ko kasi daw naibanking na ung 3thou.Pumayag na lang sila na 2k ang offset q sa cooker then 1k lang mairefund ko. Pumayag na din ako kesa sa wala.Naku buti na lang nalaman qng scam pala un.Hindi na konkapagbigay pa ng malaking pera.Ask ko lang ung atm ko ba na tingnan nila pede nila makuha un laman?Chineck pa un receipt ng last withdraw q..Or strategy lang din nila kung che2ck qng mgkanu talaga cash q?Thanks
ReplyDeletekung may reklamo po kyo s Greentop sa Hepe po ng Munisipyo kyo magreklamo o dumeretso po kyo kay Mayor at aaksiyunan po agad ang problema nyo, para may record din po sila kung ilan na po ang nabibiktima ng greentop
DeleteHi, I had the same experience with them. May tumawag at sabi nanalo daw ako at pwede ko na daw kunin ang item sa michikawa enterprise sa Jenra Mall Angeles City. I went there and they asked me for some ID's.. I gave them my driver's license, SSS and voter's id. Plus they made me sign up a form full name and address bago ibigay sa akin ang napanalunan ko which is isang access card sa website na ehappy.tv. Meron daw 1,000 international channels ito but when I checked on it wala pa ata sa 100 ang listings nila at hindi naman nagpi-play. Pretty decent naman ang internet speed ko dito pero wala akong makitang videos. Nagsuspect ako na isa itong scam.. although walang nakuhang pera mula sa akin, kinakatakutan ko naman na baka gamitin ang mga ID's na naibigay ko sa ibang paraan.
ReplyDeleteSame tayo ng case sa jenra mall angeles city pampanga din ako muntik maloko, balik sana ako ngayon pero bigla ko naisipang igoogle. My gosh! buti nlng at wala ako bnigay na kahit ano sa knila. Beware guys,!
DeleteHi Abrilya,
ReplyDeleteI am a victim of greentop as well, reading all these feedback I can't do anything but to move on, on the positive side at least I have the induction cooker..

ReplyDeleteKung sino po ang may reklamo sa Greentop Olivarez Plaza ay maari po kyong pumunta sa munisipyo at hanapin nyo po si Hepe siya po ang may hawak ng kaso at agad nya po kyong tutulungan, kailangan po nting magreklamo sa munisipyo para po sa records ng greentop scam kung hindi po kyo magrereklamo dun wala po silang karapatan na basta nalang ipasara ang greentop kahit madami na nabiktima nito dahil wala po silang natatanggap na reklamo.

ReplyDeletemeron din ditong greentop sa batangas city, nasa 4th floor ng baymall. hanggang ngayon pala buhay pa rin ang mga ganyang stilo ng marketing. nangyari na sa akin yan almost a decade ago pero ibang company name. may tumawag din sa akin, anniversary promo daw nila. nagbigay din ng code, telephone number at pangalan ng pwedeng kausapin. pinuntahan ko naman kasi malapit lang sa amin. pagpasok ko pa lang sa store nila dalawa na kaagad ang lumapit sa akin. tapos nung ipakita ko na ang ID ko, kung ano-anu na ang sinabi nila para lang mahikayat akong kumuha ng kanilang produkto. sinabi ko na lang na di ako interisado sa mga produkto nila then umalis na ko.
ReplyDeleteSame happend to us today, 2 March 2014. Whom can we contact to file charges against this crminal act which goes on probably for at least many month with no interaction from authorities. Are people in PH can be that easy abused ? please provide some useful contacts to end this scammers !
ReplyDeleteI just received a call 20 minutes ago. I decided to search the net immediately after the call because I had a gut feeling that I was being scammed. Here are the details I got:
ReplyDeleteCaller: Lorraine Bustamante
Company: Yutama Electronic Company
Reference Code: M0394R
Claim Prizes at: GreenTop Claiming Center
Location: Olivares Plaza, Los Baños, Laguna, near LBC
Sinabi sakin hung kausap ko na 10th year anniversary ng Yutama Electronic Company at isa ako sa mga nanalo via electronic raffle gamit ang PLDT landline. Entertainment Showcase daw napanalunan ko at nung tinanong ko kung may kailangan ba akong bilhin o bayaran, sabi nya wala. Hindi daw ako lottery or contest winner kasi wala naman daw akong sinalihan. Wala din daw akong dapat icash-out kahit ilang centavo. Namimigay lang daw tlaga sila ng premyo kasi anniversary nila. Nagduda tlaga ako sa tawag dahil familiar ako dun sa tindahan ng GreenTop sa may Olivarez Plaza. Parang may nakita na din akong pinakita sa TV na inimbestigahan to, kaya ngsearch ako agad sa net. At heto nga, andaming complaints. Excited din ako tulad nyo at ng iba pang natawagan. Sa loob loob ko, alam kong scam pero nakakatempt pmunta. Sabi sakin iclaim ko daw agad prize ko before 8pm. Buti na lang tinatamad akong lumabas ng bahay. Haha. I'll warn my housemates and other people I know as well para hindi sila mabiktima.
On a side note: sobrang nagduda ako nung ilang beses ko banggitin ung name ng company nila.
Yutama Electronic Company. Yutama, Yutama, you tama, may tama ka! :) hahaha.
Company name pa lang, parang hindi na totoo. at HINDI NGA.
The offer was too good to be true, entertainment showcase na free????
It's an obvious a scam. I think i'll pass. :)
Eh bakit nman po kami kagagaling lng po nmin sa Mitchikawa pero nareceive nmin ung prize? tsaka ndi po kmi inalok ng kung ano ano tsaka ndi kami naglabas ng pera kahit 5 pesos :)
ReplyDeletekasi nalaman nila wala kayong pera or cash during that time kaya no point para ituloy plano nila sa inyo... pero kung may pera kayo malamang biktima ka na din
DeleteSame thing happened to me. I received a call today from "YUTAMA ELECTRONIC COMPANY". She introduced herself en saying that our PLDT number was one of the lucky winner, it's their company anniversary daw en they are giving away free gift for all the PLDT subcribers en it draw electronically daw. So, ok as per our conversation, she gave me a code to claim the prizes. She ask the landmark of our, so i told her, she said i can claim it in "UNIVOX CENTER" in TUTUBAN MALL, PRIME BLOCK 2nd FLR. I asked her if ok lng kung parents ko lng ang mgclaim en not the subcriber, so sabi nya ok kng daw basta bring lang daw a valid ID. Then she asked me kung puwede pumunta today to claim, i told her that myparents are outside not sure what time they are coming back home, sabi nya till 8pm nmn daw ang office nila en if ever di makapunta today bukas ang office nila tmrw from 10a - 11pm (hmm, office inside the mall till that late).. She keep on repeating to me na no seminar to be attended, no money involved.. En if ever somebody will ask the money from my parents in their office, just call her en she will talk to the staff there,. I just keep on saying ok... Then I asked her what is my prize ba? She said a digi cam en E Happy Tv', a pocket wifi (free subscription for 2 yrs) too much diba??. Im so lucky to have those, altough ngwwonder na ako, diko na lng pinahalata sa kanya, she keeps on talking prin.. To end the conversation i just told her na ok will ask my parents to go to ur office as soon as they get back..
ReplyDeleteAs soon as we end our coversation i search their company en all the results are SCAM... Surprisingly, as im reading this blog me en UPLB Students have the same caller LORRAINE BUSTAMANTE, same code M0394R en ofcourse same company name YUTAMA ELECTRONIC COMPANY. By the way the phone number she gave was 3109910.
My apology if my story is too long,..
Ingat ingat po tayo...

I was looking for marketing scams in google and i just bumped into this blog, as I remember I also have this incident that someone call us because we won a prize cause of the reason that we are a subscriber of Bayantel for quite a lot of year. Sounds convincing because its true and the caller gave us the code and ask us to claim the prize in Monumento, Caloocan (somewhere there). Good thing that we are too lazy to get the prize because we are expecting that maybe it will be just a shirt, foldable fan or tumbler.
ReplyDeleteThere are too many scams nowadays.
oh my god...thank you sa blog...may tumawag din sakin ngaun dahil nananalo daw ako ng gadget then nag bigay sya ng code para iclaim ko daw yung prize...Michikawa sa robonson balagtas...2 valid id kaylangan..buti nlng nag search ako..papunta na sana ngayon ako dun...ang daming manlolokong kababayan natin :(
ReplyDeletePatuloy pa din ang stilo nila.beware of any univox centers. Wag magpaloko mga kabayan. Be vigilant.sabi ng iba marketing strategy.well, f@ck theme and send theme to hell.
ReplyDeletePatuloy pa din itong panloloko nila. Beware of any univox centers. Sabi ng iba marketing strategy ito. Klarong klaro panloloko ito. Dapat matigil na ito.
ReplyDeleteI just hang up from the same call right now. *literally* good thing i'm in front of my computer to easily search things up! Mga tao talaga ngayon, kung ano2 na makapanloko at mamera lang. tssss
ReplyDeletejust a few hours ago i also received a call. i am only 19 so she forced me to get the gift with someone above 28. i asked one of my relatives to come with me but she feel asleep. i was trying to find another one but no one is available so while waiting for an available relative, i searched for michikawa. thank God inatake ako ng sobrang katamaran i will really feel sorry if i had a chance to disturb a relative and waste money . thank you everyone
ReplyDeleteJust received the same call from she said she's Ivy Lorenzo of GreenTop Marketing telling me to claim my prize fro winning a contest that I never have entered into, same spiel that I have to go to their store in Sabarte Mall in Caloocan. luckily I made this research now I don't have to waste my time and effort in going there. thanks

Ayy nako, mga tao naman nga ngayon oh ... Need ko daw magdala ng guardian kasi 28 y/o pataas daw dapat ang mag claim so I need to bring guardian daw.. ay nako buti na lang natuto na ako sa mga scam scam na yan .. search muna bago punta !
Goodluck guys !
Thanks so much for posting this my friend! I'm only 15 but so meticulous when it comes to these things. I also asked my brother and he was very confused. Goodness gracious!
ReplyDeleteI also received a call from Marian Lopez that my phone number was chosen through electronic raffle to receive a gift and told me to go in greentop at embarcadero, legaspi city to claim the prize and bring with me 2 valid ID's. When I was there I experienced what the others said about greentop they also forced me to get the following items: beyond fit, monitor scale, flatware set, multi purpose cooker, chair massager and beautymate massager. They told me that i will pay only 1 item to get the other items for free worth of
ReplyDeleteP 62 000 less 2000 the amount that I picked so i will pay only 60 000. Sad to say i have no cash for that amount so they asked me if I had a credit card or atm. They asked me a reservation amounting of 22 000 to bring home the 2 items: beyond fit and multi purpose cooker but I said I had no money so they told me to give only 5 000 to bring the multi purpose cooker and the beyond fit will be delivered after paying the remaining amount of 17 000. The 38 000 pesos will be paid for installment for 3 years then they said i will get now the remaining items after payment. When I got home I scan the item and the greentop marketing from the internet, I was shocked from what I've read about the company that this is a scam. Thanks for sharing your experience and I was awakened about this scam. My dear Kababayan here in LEGAZPI CITY ang mga manloloko ay nandito na wag pong maniniwala.Beware po lalo yun may credit card pipilitin kayong kumuha ng items nila kahit na ayaw nyo, pagtutulong-tulungan kayo para mag-agree sa gusto nila. Buti na lang 5 000 lang ang nakuha sa akin at may item akong dala na an tunay na price ay 4000 ayon sa naresearch ko pero sa kanila ay 5 900. Grabe talaga hindi ko akalain na manloloko sila dahil sa kagagalang galang ang pananamit nila. Huwag na kayong pumasok sa GREENTOP EMBARCADERO, LEGAZPI CITY.
Same thing happened to me yesterday at embarcadero legazpi city, they make me believe that i won their items worth 300k but to claim the prize i have to purchase one of their product amounting 70k... sabi ko wla aq ganun pera, tapos ung isang staff pumasok sa room sabi nia bbgyan pa daw ako isang item kn gumgamit daw aq visa or mastrcard, bad thing is modus lng pla nila un pra makita kng may credit card ka... buti na lng at wla ng limit credit card ko.. pero pinipilit pa rn nila aq, ngttutulungan sila pra macinvince ka sayang nmn daw ung 6 items ko na libre... kahit daw mgdown muna ko 20k pra mreserve ung items but i refused pa rn,kc wla tlga ko dala money... ngpilit sila hangang sa napapayag aq mgdown ng kht 5k daw... hayy nkkainis while i read this blog... i already contact globe pra maaware rn sila dito, i hope they will take action aboutthis.. at hindi bsta2 ibbgay contact numbers ng clients nila... beware of the greentop company... maggaling sila manloko...
DeleteButi nalang ngsearch muna ako balak ko pa naman sana pumunta sa greentop los baňos nanalo daw ako ng gift to redeem punta lang daw ako and bring valid id,sabi pa ng caller no money nvolve and no semenars..
ReplyDeletethank u sa blog at naalerto ako...
ReplyDeleteWe just received a phone call like this this afternoon, we’re from Cebu and the lady on the phone introduced herself as Sheryl Gonzaga. She wanted to talk to my mom instead of me, and at first I didn’t know why.
ReplyDeleteSame story: Nabunot nila yung number namin through an electronic raffle and one of the lucky winners daw kami ng anniversay giveaways ng PLDT, they asked if may tumawag ba sa amin yesterday kasi today na daw yung deadline sa pag-claim ng gift pack. Doon daw namin i-claim sa Michikawa Redemption Center sa Insular Square, Basak. She gave my mom a promo code something. She also insisted that we tell them exactly what time we can be there daw. My mom listed it all down on paper, but after the phone call she told me that she still felt unsure about the whole thing.
So of course, following the unspoken rule these days which is “When in doubt, turn to the internet”, I googled it up and was very satisfied to find all these blog posts that the whole thing is indeed a scam. I realized that they also target people over the age of 28 or 30, because it’s these people who are usually more financially secure (ie, merong stable job & income, savings, etc.). Of course, they can’t swindle money out of people who don’t have that much money. That was the first thing I found fishy, when she didn’t want to talk to me but to my mom because my mom was older.
I also found it suspicious that when my mom asked “Saang store namin ma-claim yung gift pack?”, the girl said “Hindi po siya store ma’am, redemption center po siya.” But to think that their “redemption center” is located in a mall, and obviously they have to pay rent there, and being a redemption center doesn’t imply that they have a source of income. Where do they get money for their rent then if they are not a store and thus don’t sell products to people? And where do they even get their gift packs when they don’t have a store that sells certain products? It makes you wonder where the hell they get their money to pay their phone agents, the people manning the “redemption center”, and etc. Then of course, there's the issue that if PLDT organized it, then dapat sa PLDT centers i-claim yung gift pack, kung meron man talaga.
Plus palagi pa niyang sinasabi na “no money involved ma’am”. Wow, no money involved talaga ha.
I do realize that these people are very skilled in sales talk, marketing, and of course in fooling people. It’s really true that “Kung nanalo ka ng premyo pero wala ka namang sinalihan, dapat ka mag-ingat.”
It’s appalling that these scammers are now all over the country. And to think that some of the commenters here had their experiences since 5 years ago pa.
Well, at least a lot of people are spreading the word now. Thanks to you all, we were able to confirm that this really is a scam.
Hanggang ngayon patuloy pa rin ang pagtawag nila sa mga PLDT subscribers. First time namin ito. Just received the same call yesterday galing sa isang babae na nagpakilalang Nickie dela Cruz at nasa PLDT main office daw siya sa Makati. Nanalo daw kami sa anniversary promo ng PLDT. Tinanong ko kung ano ang prize na napanalunan namin ang sabi niya may computers daw at mga gadgets pero kung ano daw ang prize na ibigay sa akin ok na raw yun. Maari ko daw i-claim sa 2nd floor Blue Wave sa Marikina. May booth daw sila duon na Unibox Clearing Center at magdala lang daw ako ng 2 valid ID's. Nagbigay pa talaga ng code no. E0185C, at parang totoo kasi huwag daw kami magbibigay ng pera pag hiningian kami, at tawagan ko lang daw sya pag hiningian kami ng pera upon claiming the prize. Convincing ang pananalita nya at naalala ko na may ganuon ngang promo ang PLDT dati. Kaya nag plan ako para punta dun sa fair daw nila. Pero medyo nagduda na rin ako kaya tumawag muna ako sa hotline ng PLDT na 171 para magtanong kung may anniversary promo sila. According to them wala daw advice regarding the said anniv. promo. Nag search din ako dito sa google at mabuti na rin na nabasa ko ang mga comments dito.. Grabe, matagal na pala iyan pero di pa rin nahihinto baka marami pa silang maloko..
ReplyDeletePareho tau code.kakatawag lang sakin..excited pa naman ako buti nalang may anghel na bumulong sakin na research muna sa google..wala ako nababasang maganda about michikawa or greentop na yan..papunta na sana ako maya 5pm sa olivarez binan.2nd floor at centrall mall..but paasahin ko nlng sila.haaha

ReplyDeletenaku tinawagan din ako , meron daw akong dapat iclaim kasi nanalo daw ako items, kaso dapat ko kunin sa greentop olivarez , nagduda ako kaya tiningnan ko sa net , at nabasa ko na scam nga paro ang istilo nila , nagtataka lang po ako kung pano nila nalaman number ko eh bagong cell plan ito wala pang one week
ReplyDeleteSCAM NGA PO TINAWAGAN DIN NILA AKO
ReplyDeleteScammer sila! I also received a call fromMichikawa Enterprises in Biñan, Laguna last Monday claiming na isa ako sa nabunot nila sa raffle, they also said they are from PLDT. (They already called sa landline namin last year, nagresearch muna ako and all at naverify kong scam dahil wala din namang promo na ganito ang PLDT.) Ilang beses ko nahuli na scammer ung kausap ko dahil mali mali ang sinasabi nya:
ReplyDeleteUna nyang nakausap ung mama ko, nainterview na pala sya, tinanong names namin and all. Buti pinasa nya sakin ung call. Nung ngintroduce sya sakin, she’s referring to my sister’s name, so I corrected her. Galit pa si ate: “Kanino po ba talaga nakapangalan ung phone?”, I said sakin, I mentioned my name. (*1 POINT: If you’re company is related to PLDT you should know the Customer’s name.)
Sabi ko “I already researched you online, paki-note na lang na hindi ako interested.” Ay si ate mapilit! Sayang naman daw dahil isa daw ako sa 20 na nabunot sa buong Laguna (*2 POINTs: I’m from Carmona, Cavite; kung talagang related sila sa PLDT dapat alam nya unang-una ung biling address namin ay sa Carmona at hindi sa Laguna). More uto pa si ate na hindi daw sila scammer, kahit pamasahe lang daw ang dalhin ko.
Nilibang ko muna sya kahit naiirita na ko, sabi ko: ano bang makukuha ko sa kanila. She answered something na body fat analyzer and ehappy tv ek ek, super market sya. I stil said NO st sabi ko na hindi ako napupunta sa area na yan. Sagot ni ate hindi naman daw ako aabot ng Carmona from San Pedro. (BINGO! Di nya talaga alam ang ginagawa nya kanina nung sinabi nyang related sila sa PLDT). Tinaasan ko na sya ng boses: “E hindi nga ako taga-Laguna! taga-Carmona nga ako!!”; Tapos binabaan na nya ko ng phone.
Mag-ingat po tayong lahat at wag basta basta maniwala sa mga ganitong calls.
I also received a call, just right now, from Ms. Joyce Mendez, my phone number was chosen and luckily win a special prize and I will picked up my price in GreenTop, Olivarez Plaza, ground flr in Los Banos. I was so curious why I will win a prize for not joining any raffle or buy some with promo and also my globeline, they are the one to call me up. Ms. Joyce gave a claiming number D0486A+P and if I have a PRC id much better, I thought I have, but she didn't know I'll been searching for greentop right away and read this scam, so never go to Greentop marketing in Los Banos, Laguna.
ReplyDelete2012 pa ang blog na to but until now michikawa is still operating. Just like everyone else I also received a call that my landline number won a prize. The caller asked me my name. Dun pa lang alam ko na agad na scam. Nanalo number ko yet hindi nila alam pangalan ko? Syempre ibang pangalan din binigay ko. Then she gave me a reference number and look for a certain person in robinsons balagtas.And to bring 2 valid IDs. Nakakainis kasi paulit-ulit kang tatawagan kesyo yung prize ko na lang daw ang di pa nakiki-claim. Grabe na talaga panahon ngayon...
ReplyDeleteTinawagan din nila kami, buti nlng magaling ako magresearch! Same modus ung ginagawa nila hanggang ngayon, ganyan din mga procedures pinapagawa nila sakin, at magclaim daw ng prize. May mga tao talaga na mas pipiliin mangloko, kesa magtrabaho ng patas sa ibang tao. Salamat ng malaki dito sa blog na to.
ReplyDeletehahaha mabuti nalang mahilig ako mag babasa ng blog at ma sesearch kakatawag lang sakin ng mga tukmol nayan sabi nanalo daw ako dahil ako ay globe land line user then may makukuha akong face massages tapos unta lang daw ako sa robinson balagtas and dun ko ma claim ung napanalunan ko tapos papakita ko lang daw ung reference No. na binigay nila at mag present ng 2 valid ID mejo nag duda ko kasi ang layo ng globe sa michikawa kaya nag search ako ayun madami ako nabasa about that company kaya sana maging gabay itong mga blog na to sa ibang tao para hindi na sila mabiktima ng mga gantong modus salamat nadin sa mga unang nag share ng experience nyo..
ReplyDeleteSame story, kakatawag just now, LIANNE MENDOZA from GreenTop, randomly selected daw sa Legazpi area, claim prize at Embarcadero. Mga useful electronic products daw.
ReplyDeletenow im kinda tempted to go para lang i-grill sila sa ginagawa nila
Kakatawag din lng sa akin now..... wag mapapaloko......
ReplyDeleteSomeone has called me 15 minutes ago. A girl named "Monica Santos" was trying to convince me to claim my "rewards" due to my Globe subscription. tsk She even asked me to present 2 valid IDs and the codes she's given me haha (just to make it more realistic though ) She said that I need to claim those stuffs within 2 days from 11 AM to 8 PM at their stall in Robinson's Balagtas (Bulacan). I am quite convinced to go but thanks be to God for He has given me wisdom , and I came to realize that it was really just a scam. And of course,thank you for your blog, this is really a big help.God bless!

DeletePLEASE READ BAKA MA SCAM KAYO: DONT GO SA SUNSTAR MALL, GATID STA CRUZ LAGUNA DAHIL SA REWARD NA MAKUKUHA NYO SA GREEN TOP NA NASA TAPAT DAW NG BENCH SA GROUND FLOOR NG MALL. SUNDAY TO MONDAY NANDON CLA NOV. 29-30 HOLIDAY MADAMING TAO MADAMI CLANG MALOLOKO NA HINDI MAKAKAALAM NG SCAM NA ITO.
ReplyDeleteBaka me tumawag sa inyo na ganito ang sasabihin. Isa ka sa 20 na nanalo out of their random electronic raffle regardless of any line (phone service provider) daw dahil may thanksgiving anniversary daw sila dahil tatlong taon na ang kanilang kompanya. Makiclaim mo daw 'yung E-Happy TV Card or body fat scale sa Green Top sa tapat ng Bench. Kapag nandon ka na liliituhin ka kasi madami cla. Para kang mabubudol budol. Ingat para sa lahat. Lumalabas na ang mga masasamang tao kasi mgpa pasko na. Inantay ko muna na mgsalita ng mgsalita ung tumawag. Ng makuha ko na lahat ng mga info inalam ko pangalan ng tumawag KAREN LOPEZ daw cya. Bago ako ngresearch sa internet para malaman kung anong klaseng SCAM na naman ito. Boom meron nga. Sa Manila cla ng ooperate wala na cguro maloko sa Laguna naman.
kahapon lang pumunta kami dun sa sunstar mall. totoo nga madami cla. pinabunot kami then cnabi nila na nanalo daw kami ng ibat ibang appliances nila then madami dn cla . tama nga un madami cla at nanlilito. after all their explanation cnabi nila nung huli na kailangan daw mabayaran ung isang appliance nila para makuha ung iba ng free . they also asked about things regarding atm accounts kung magkano ang laman kung meron, credit cards, kung anu brand ng cp, kung anung network ang gamit sa phone and marami pa. nakapag down kami ng 3k nun without knowing that it was a scam until now na nasearch ko sa net about it. sana wala clang ibang mabiktima pa. spread po natin kung mabasa man natin to.
DeleteIf something is too good to be true, it's probably not true.
DeleteWhen in doubt, turn to Google.
When I answered the phone about 30 minutes ago, the girl caller said she is from customer service and her name is Catherine. I've been calling PLDT Tech support for the past several days due to my intermittent internet connection, so I assumed that she was from PLDT.
In short, she said I am entitled to a "Reward" because of my loyalty. She gave me a code - 2016IRI, and that all I have to do is go to SunStar Mall and look for Greentop Marketing at the ground floor and ask for Sir Jomari. Give him the code, and 2 valid ID's and I will get my reward. She emphasized that I don't need to spend even a single centavo.
Oh, and apparently, she's not from PLDT, she said she is from NEC Corporation, you know, the maker's of phones and computers and such other things. And that NEC is celebrating it's 10th anniversary that is why they are giving rewards to those who use their products like me (the landline telephone) for a long time. And that Greentop Marketing is just the company handling the giving of rewards to loyal subscribers.
She also emphasized that I need to claim my rewards within today or tomorrow (August 10-11, 216). I asked what sort of reward will I get, and she said mostly computer related items. She even said that she knows the weather is not ideal right now, but I should not hesitate because sayang naman daw yung reward.
Pero dahil nga sa maulan, at tamad ako lumabas ng bahay kapag umuulan (at kapag mainit), I decided to Google what she told me. Google search for NEC anniversary yielded nothing, so I searched Greentop Marketing, and BINGO!
Lucky for me, I came across this blog and read the comments. Sabagay, wala naman silang makukuha sa akin dahil wala akong credit or debit card and my bank account has less than 500 pesos. Hahaha!
I also received a call from MONICA SANTOS, its a same caller from those who posted here as well. She said she is a customer service from Norion Electronic Corporation, with Reference Number she gave me V1070D. mag dala daw ako 2 valid ID at dpat 28years old above. I mentioned her the name of my parents and our (my brother) names too. Sbrang convinced na ko to claim the award as what she said at Michikawa Enterprises Robinsons, Balagtas. Thank God that I googled the contact number of Michikawa to ask about the award I have received and instead I found several forums/blogs abt the said modus of the group or company. But sadly that I think my dad was already a victim of their scam. My dad already purchased their products months ago. Really disappointing and felt bad that theyre trying to manipulate the sincerity and genuine heart of buyers like us. Hoping someone to stop dis at ibigay sknila ang nrarapat na parusa sa lhat ng naloko at niloloko nila. Mag tulungan tayo guys.
ReplyDeleteOh my God!!!! Buti nalang ang nagsearch muna din ako . A few minutes ago mga 10 mins. na siguro may tumawag sa office at sinasabi nga na may macclaim ako na thanksgiving ek ek nila nagbigay pa ng Ref. No. 2015OLI. tinanong din nya ko sa lugar so sabi ko sa malolos and then sabi nya sa Robinsons Balagtas daw ako pumunta ipakita ko lang daw ang ref. no at mgdala ng valid i.d at ibibigay na ang reward sa akin. Napaka bilis nyang magsalita hindi ka makakasingit. Angie Gonzales daw name nya. Puntahan ko daw ang Michikawa Claiming Store nila open daw un ng 11:00am to 8:00pm. so sabi ko hanggang 6pm ako sabi nung Angie Gonzales "hanggang 8:00 pm pa naman po open ung store, and you have til friday para makuha nyo kung reward. Para di na din po kayo mahirap mag hanap katabi po sya ng Mang Inasal"!!! Nakakapagduda una palang. Thank God na save ako sa maling gawain ng kapwa ko. Mahiya naman kayo kapwa nyo niloloko nyo!!! Magtrabaho kayo ng legal.
ReplyDeleteIs there anything that we can do to stop thsee scammers? I just can't sleep as i've just learned that my sister was a victim of this last Saturday,knowing that she really can't afford to pay the amount they"re asking for this stuff. What a liar and devilish act they are into, knowing that some people are just so trustworthy and kind-hearted kaya madaling naloloko. I just hate this Green Top company
ReplyDeleteIs there any action taken by the authorities to stop these scammers? Is there a DTI in Legaspi who is taking means to stop this illegal acts? Kainis, nabiktima sister ko ng Green top dahil madaling magtiwala at ayaw maging rude sa tao.
ReplyDeleteMayroon nang kaunting pinagbago (upgrade kumbaga) sa estilo nila. Mas detalyado.
ReplyDeleteKakatawag lng ng isang babae kani-kanina ng mga 3pm. Norion International Inc.(?) ,isang Malaysian company, ang namimigay ng freebies annually through random selection (raffle in short). Hindi raw kunektado ang companiya nila sa PLDT o anuman Telecommunications Company pero napili nila ang telephone number namin dahil may internet connection kmi.
Napili raw ang account number namin pero telephone number lng pala ang tinutukoy nya na sya ring namang dinouble check/kinonfirm nya sa akin sabay tanong kung sa akin nkapangalan yung account (nalito ako kaya nasabi kong oo) kung kaya tinuloy niya na ang mga sasabihin niya.
Mas pina-ikli na yung code - 6 digits na lng ang ibinigay niya.
Gaya nang dati, kailangan daw mgdala ng 2 valid IDs at pumunta sa kanilang "redemption center" sa GreenTop(?) sa Basement Area ng Gaisano City Mall, Singcang, Bacolod City.
Hindi raw ako dpat mg-alala dahil hindi nila partner o anu pa man ang GreenTop(?) kundi redemption center lng. Tinanong pa niya kung ma alam ako o familiar ako sa naturang establishment. Absolutely free raw as in wala raw silang hinihinging pera o kapalit basta pumunta raw ako.
Tinanong pa'ko kung saan raw ako nkatira kahit halata nman na alam niya na kung saan simula't simula pa lang.
Binigay pa sa'kin ang contact number nang establishment pati ang operating hours: 11:30am-7:30pm.
Tpos sabay tanong uli kung sa'kin talaga nkapangalan ang PLDT account at no'ng sinabi kong hindi kundi ang tatay ko, tinanong din nya yung edad ko sabay insist na mas mabuti na ang tatay ko ang mag redeem dahil "older" siya. Again, sabi sa ibang comments na target nila yung 28yrs old and above dahil "financially stable" o yung talagang may pera na.
Nagpakilala ang babae bilang Diane Cruz at totoo nga, parang bisaya ang accent habang nagtaTagLish.
(Pasensya po sa mahabang post. Gusto ko kasing detalyado ang lahat)
may na recieve din akong tawag, at pinuntahan ko naman hahaha. ehappy tv card ang nakuha ko. wala naman nawala sakin o nakuha, i just have to sign a recieved form. which is diko naman inayos ang sign ko.. tiningnan lang id ko, sa harap ko mismo then binalik agad.
ReplyDeletehello po.. i was just scanning over the web searching for any info about ehappy.tv, and I found your stories here.. same thing happened to my in-laws nung isang araw. anyways, we're from Iloilo and the store name involved is iHome. same modus, my father-in-law was asked by a few ladies and was told it is their anniversary that day and it might be his lucky day. He was waiting for my mother-in-law just outside a shop and they both went to that ihome store. he drew a raffle and won Php 2000 check,then they gave them some questions and told them the answers were correct nd again they won a maasage chair, yun bang super push sila na ma swerte raw yung in-laws ko.. then ang dami pa nila nkuha thru raffle, andaming kitchen appliances, bandang huli,kailangan nila bayaran 72k daw kung gusto makuha lahat nun..na deduct na ble yung 2k na napanalunan nila.. if they want the massage chair, 20k daw and they have can pay 5k na parang reservaton fee.. nagbayad naman yung dalawa, tapos may dalang rice cooker pag uwi..
ReplyDeleteayaw na nga lang nilang mag abala na bumalik pa dun.. good thing i read your comments.. atleast di na dumami pa biktima nila.
hopefully lang, ma aksyunan na to soon.
OMG! Scam nga yan! Nakareceive ng call ang tita ko na nabunot daw ang landline namin foe a price iclaim daw sa GREENTOP OLIVAREZ LOS BANOS LAGUNA. Dahil sa akin nakapangalan ang landline namin, ako ang pumunta sa olivarez. Pagpunta ko dun, tinanong agad ang work ko, at parang gusto nilang paaminin na well-off ka at may car ka (siguro para sa next nilang scamming steps). Dahil ok naman ang damit ko ng araw na yon (office attire kasi ako nun), chinika pa ako nung bakla (bakla kaya sya?) na sales agent ata. pinaupo pa ako sa massage chair. Mga halos isang oras ako nagwait kasi daw ineencode pa daw ung info ko (E samantalang ang finill up ko lang ay name at id ko sa binigay nilang form halos isang araw ang pag-eencode?) So di ko na lang pinansin kasi nasa massage chair nga ako at masarap yung masahe sabayan pa na tinetest sakin ung beautymate massager nila so relax na relax talaga ako. Tapos chicka ng chicka ung sales agent tungkol sa buhay nya at tanong ng tanong tungkol sa trabaho ko sa lovelife at kung ano ano pa (siguro para makuha ang loob ko para sa mga susunod nila na steps ulit). Saka parang na-harass ako kasi ung beautymate massager e minamassage na nya sa private part ko!!! nung di na ako makatiis tumayo na ako sabi ko Kuya matagal pa ba kasi may pupuntahan pa ako 1 hour na ako naghihintay dito. ayon biglang lumabas ung freebie ko na silicon cellphone stand (wow ha, hindi naman sa pagmamalaki wow ha kasing laki lang ng daliri ko) so sabi ko ok na yun tinry ko lang nman. at pinabunot pa ako sa raffle. Nabunot ko GC worth 2k, katulad ng mga comments dito, may free chair massager at beautymate massager. So natuwa ako akala ko free. pero may kumausap sakin na babae sa phone at kailangan ko da wsundin ung nasa likod ng coupon. YUN PALA BIBILI AKO NG NAKAPROMO NA PRODUCT NILA!!! So sabi ko magkano ang pinakamura ninyo dyan? Ang pinakamura is 61k!!! so 60,000 minus 2000 na discount 59,000 pa din!!! pag nasa sitwasyon ka na ganon parang mag aattempt ka kasi papaligiran ka na nung mga agent at nakatingin lahat sayo. Sabi ko wala po akong cash. Sabi nya ano po ba ang ginagamit nyo pag installment? Credit card ba? Itatawag natin yan baka pwede pumirma ka ng contract (E sabi nya nung una hindi daw sila naaccept ng credit card)Sabi ko hindi po, nagbabayad lang po ako ng cash every month kasi nakaplan po ang phone ko un lang ang biabayaran ko. Sabi ko hindi na po ako kukuha dahil mauubos po ang savings ko. At nag cross out sya dun sa voucher na nabunot ko para siguro manghinayang ka talaga!!!! Hay naku!!!! BAKIT NAG-OOPERATE YANG MGA YAN SA KILALANG LUGAR???
ReplyDeletebe aware wag na lang pong sugod ng sugod porke libre na akala natin o nanalo na wala naman tayong tinayaan e pupuntahan natin agad alamin muna ang lahat bago gumawa ng aksyon..
ReplyDeleteTil now nagooperate pa rin sila. Just few hrs ago a certain Joyce Jimenez of Morion Company called at pinapaclaim ang reward namin na happy.tv free for 2yrs subscription. Iclaim lang daw sa UNIVOX 3F Good Earth Plaza Carriedo.
ReplyDeleteNakatanggap din ako ng call, pinapapunta kami ng ihome sa may shaw blvd. daw. Sabi niya nanalo telephone no. Namin ng anniversary gift, Noryon Company (di ko alam spelling). Kailangan lan daw magpresent ng 2 valid id tapos 28yrs old above lang daw pwede mag claim then nagbigay siya ng reference no. Medyo nag doubt nako then nung hinihingi na niya pangalan ng magcclaim sa ihome, di nako nagdalawang isip na ibaba yung phone, iniwan ko na lang nakahang yung phone para di na makatawag ulit. Tapos sinearch ko mga scam then i found this blog. Buti na lang nag alangan akong magbigay ng any infos. So beware on giving out infos din.

ReplyDeleteHello po! Univox Enterprises has branches all over the country. What can we possibly do as a citizen to let their scam stop? Our new president hates scammers, sana ma stop na yan silang lahat. Beware na rin sa SM branches coz another scammer company Phil Prudential Insurance are ardent on persuading people to invest to their company.

ReplyDeleteHello there! You first ask for retund. If they will not give your money back, tell them that you will go to DTI and call the presidential hotline. If matigas sila, then do what you say.

ReplyDeleteA lady called me too and told me my phone number was chosen just like the rest here. She told me that I could claim a product; ready for pick-up and no money involved. This thing (whatever this it) could only be claimed during this same day, until 8:00 PM. I could claim it via UNIVOX CLAIMING CENTER on the 2nd floor of Abanao Square, Baguio City.
Code: 2016LIM
Required I.D.: TIN I.D.
I have the balls to go there myself but I wouldn't waste my time. So can someone please go there instead of me? :-)

ReplyDeleteare you guys part of the million who voted duterte??we can try to escalate this so that it can be acted upon. same thing happened to me. i just got my telephone line connected and i was wondering how come they knew my number right a way when I dont even know it myself. same scenario same location where i should go they said it should be in singcang bacolod etc. this shit has been happening and no one bothered to act on it? i believe they also have a connection inside the dti more likely its corrupt officials.

Nadala din ako sa scam na ito and it was too late before I realized that it was. Binigyan ako ng Greentop ng ehappytv card (hindi ko pa nagagamtit). I'm unemployed kasi kaka graduate ko lang. Magtatanong sana ako, makakakuha ba sila ng pera mula sa akin or sa family ko? Please help me. I'm really worried. And stupid.
ReplyDeleteHello Riza! As long na wala kang pinirmahang contract or walang na i swipe na card mo, then safe ka. You are not stupid, just innocent. Be careful in your next encounter with this kind of business trick, like UNIVOX Company.
ReplyDeleteSame happened to me today. I won thru electronic raffle. My number was sourced from PLDT since accdg to them they have a tie-up with PLDT.
ReplyDeletePhone conversation palang obvious na ang pambobola. No money involve daw pero dapat until 8pm the next day ma claim ko na ang prize. Sa Jenra Mall Sindalan San Fernando Pampanga ko daw iclaim ang 7k worth na prize.
Me being doubtful I called PLDT 5 minutes after my conversation with Ms. Claire Velasco. Name of Company is Optimum Enterprise and may binanggit cya na Michiko Company. She also gave me number to verify. 045 455-0111. I gave this number to the PLDT representaive and they check their system if I was indeed a winner from of their affiliates. It turned out that OPTIMUM COMPANY / MICHIKO CO. was not affiliated with PLDT and adviced me to avoid the meeting to pickup the prize because most likely it is a SCAM.
My advise to you would be victims, If it is too good to be true... it is'nt.
Ill be waiting for their followup call and if it does happen... they will sure ly be under the hot seat.
banas yang optimum jan sa abanao square baguio city!!!! naloko din kmi.. nakapagdown ate ko ng 22k.. mga tagabaguio beware of OPTIMUM!! binaon p kmi sa utang..lintik lng walang ganti.. irerefund nmin pera ng ate ko tapos irereport ko cla sa awtoridad.. UNIVOX enterprise is a piece of shit..
