Telecom, Inc. advised postpaid subscribers to be cautious of
text scams which entice people by telling them they can get discounts or
rebates on their monthly bills. "Subscribers are requested to validate
unusual texts and calls especially if they do not come from official
four-digit Globe numbers," the telco firm said in a statement. "Texts
and calls of this nature have a primary motive of asking for personal
information, soliciting money or prepaid load, or using your account to
purchase items online." One of those circulating "promo" messages reads:
GLOBE Postpaid: Congrats! You're the one selected postpaid plan given
P150 discount billing, to get your P150 discount billing just text 150
send to 2916XXXXXXX. Globe stressed that adding a "2" before the
10-digit mobile number of the recipient results in a Share-A-Load
transaction, which means the victim would have transferred the amount to
the scammer after pressing the "Send" button. "It is best not to
respond, and immediately report suspicious texts or calls to authorized
Globe customer service channels," the firm said.
