How to Avoid Being a Victim of Facebook Hacked accounts

In 2022, my sister sent me a private message passed 6:00 pm asking me if I can lend her a money via GCash. Then when I asked her how much and I told her that I don't have a balnce on my GCash account and told her to ask our older siblings. She did not reply on her usual phase. Then five minutes later my brother drop a message on our group chat telling us that my sister's account is actually hacked. The hacker already took some amount via GCash from her friends and our relatives. The best tip I can give if your sibling, friends and/or relatives sent a message via Facebook PM asking to lend him/her money is to call him whether you are not aware his account was hacked or not. If he did not answer, chances are you are already dealing with the hacker. Some swindlers hack accounts of people and tap into their contacts to try to ask for money while disguising themselves as the account owner.  Here are some tips from Globe's GCash on how to spot if your friends and family members a...

What Happens to 10k Humanitarian Aid by DMW to OFW Saudi Claimants?

According to DMW Secretary Ople, they will release the humanitarian assistance to OFW-Saudi Claimants for unpaid wages within the next two weeks with DMW-OWWA leading the distribution efforts. The signing of the Memorandum of Agreement was held on March 11, 2023 and almost two weeks passed already but no sign of distribution has been made.  The DMW-OWWA and DSWD were supposed to provide P5,000 each for an estimated 10,000 workers-claimants, based on OWWA records. In all, the agencies will each allot P50 million to cover the financial grant. Earlier, Migrant Workers Secretary Susan Ople and Social Welfare Secretary Rex Gatchalian signed a Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) providing P10,000 as financial aid for each worker seeking unpaid wages from several Saudi construction companies that declared bankruptcy from 2015 to 2019.  Hopefully, the 100 million allocated to all the 10,000 claimants will finally get cash aid from our government and not just pure press releases.

Tutorial on How to prevent being a victim of fake sellers on Facebook

I have been a victim of scammers on Facebook. Last year, I went to Facebook Marketplace to check the prices of my plant wishlist. The price of Philodendron SP Columbia by that time is P10,000 pesos per leaf. Then I saw a post on the Marketplace of a juvenile form for only P1,000. Since I really wanted to have the plant I paid the seller via G-Cash. The seller sent a picture of a Lalamove rider about to leave her place to go to my place. After an hour the rider is yet to arrive and so I check the seller's account only to find out that I was already blocked. Prevention is always the best way to protect yourself. Here are some tips on how to avoid being a victim of fake sellers before making a transaction:  Read seller reviews and check the following:  Dates on when the reviews were posted. If the reviews were created over a short period of time, these are fake reviews to immediately increase the seller’s rating Contains gibberish words or special characters. When this happens, t...
