The Office of Civil Defense 6 (OCD) on Thursday, Jan. 16, issued a warning to businesses, suppliers, and the public about unscrupulous individuals falsely claiming to represent the OCD or its Regional Director Raul Fernandez.
They are reportedly asking for money, claiming it is needed to “ensure smooth transactions” with the OCD.
The scammer asks that deposits be made to the account of Ludivina Apao Betoc with cellular phone number 09703598542, the OCD advisory said.
The OCD does not and will never solicit money, gifts, or favors for any transactions or services, the advisory said.
The OCD is asking the public to report any scamming incidents to 09491806115 or to the following Facebook pages – Civil Defense Western Visayas or Civil Defense PH.*
