Due to rampant incidents of load sharing scams, both Smart and Globe have changed the way they operate sharing of eLoads. Globe started making restrictions in their Share-a-Load services several weeks ago (first time we experienced this was September 1). The new scheme requires confirmation that a load is being shared and requires another affirmative answer to validate it. Globe has also limited the amount of sharing to just Php300 and has removed the Php500 option (which is the usual and maximum amount used by text scammers). They explained this in Globe's updated FAQ: P500 is the most commonly used amount of Share-A-Load scammers. Also, effective August 9, 2014, the P500 denomination via Share-A-Load will be temporarily unavailable until further notice. For prepaid, the maximum load amount per transaction is Php150. Smart has also followed suit and released an infographic about it today: Introducing the new and safer way to send Smart load!
