The Philippine National Police (PNP) is stepping up efforts to train its officers in digital skills as online scams, especially those involving e-wallets, continue to rise. This came after the recent nationwide operation conducted by the PNP Anti-Cybercrime Group resulted in the arrest of eight suspects who were selling e-wallet accounts, a common method used in online fraud. To address this, the PNP is strengthening partnerships with fintech companies and community groups to promote safe online habits. Globe's mobile payment service, GCash, has assisted the Philippine National Police (PNP) and National Bureau of Investigation (NBI) to arrest an online scammer on Facebook. Last Thursday, the NBI and PNP have tracked down a fake online seller with GCash. According to the Philippine National Police (PNP), 163 cases of text scams have been reported to them since January of this year. According to a report by Inquirer.net, PNP spokesperson Roderick Alba said that these "mystery passengers" will find out who among passengers of mass transport have yet to get vaccinated. The PNP or DOTr will not announce when or where these "mystery passengers" will be deployed.
