A scammer using the name of local officials has been targeting businesses in Trece Martires, Mayor Gemma Lubigan has warned.
In a Facebook post, Lubigan said the scammer has been using the number 09365388744.
The person calls up businesses to order food, and in one instance used the name of Councilor Aldrin Anacan.
One of the business owners was not fooled because she is familiar with Anacan’s real voice, but other businesses were not so lucky.
Lubigan said the scammer was able to order 7 lechons.
She urged businesses to be careful and to verify orders.
“Kaya sana po, sa mga business owners, maging maingat po tayo. Kapag may order make sure to confirm/verify. Kawawa po kasi kayo at ang taong ginagamit na napapagtripan ng scammer na ito,” she said.
Even if another number calls them up, they should be wary and verify, she added.
“Wag basta magtitiwala,” she said.
