    clearly a scam... this has been going on for quite sometime at kapag kumagat ung txt recipient, the sender will most likely ask you to deposit a certain amount to a certain deposit account (i.e. w/c is almost always an ATM acct) supposedly representing the tax on the prize before you can make any claim.

    if the text recipient falls for this, right after making the deposit ay magkaron ng ATM withdrawal from the account and voila... na scam na siya!!!

    this is one of the reasons why banks are getting strict with account opening requirements to prevent this types of deposit accounts from being opened & used for this kind of scam. but still, there are a lot of unscrupulous syndicates out there who still succeed, so be very careful...

    No.

    You will call them. They promise you the prize. You get excited. They ask for details. Then they say someone will contact you saying something like, you have to pay x amount in taxes or processing fee to release the car or some other prize. Some people actually fall for it and deposit into an account, or meet with someone and hand over the money. Then nothing.

    Like the advance fee fraud. (Use Google to search for these words, or "Nigerian scam".)

    Some variation I suppose is that when they meet you, they mug you.

    ngayon yata sa mga scam na to, hindi na deposit sa bank since baka syempre ma-trace pa rin identity nung account owner. last time i heard yong mga gcash or smart money or load na yata ang hinihingi as payment for taxes, etc.

    sana pwede i-report itong mga number na to sa Globe or Smart para ma-deactivate yong SIM. not a solution pero at least nakaka-hassle din sa mga hinayupak. napakahirap kasing i-police ang mga 'to since prepaid lang at di na sila nakikipag-meet or give out bank account numbers anymore.

    Naalala ko nung una kaming magkacellphone sa office....

    karamihan sa amin nakatanggap ng similar na text. Ung isa kong officemate pinabasa pa sa amin at nagsisisigaw na nanalo raw cya ng kotse... ung officemate namin na nagpadala nun tawa ng tawa kc narinig pa nung boss namin na nagsisisigaw. Pati sa kabilang department umabot ung nangyari, tawa din ng tawa sila doon.
    tinawagan pa niya ung gf nya then to tell her that news.... hehehe

    We all saw the word "gullible" written on his forehead and laughed the whole week

    It is really sad to admit that there are still so many people that are gullible.

    I remember one of our security guards. He received a call informing him that he won a car. All he had to do was to go to their office and claim his prize. He was very happy and excited. That night, he borrowed money and invited his friends for a drinking spree. The next day, he went to claim his car. He was surprised to see so many claimants in the office. Yung pala, they called up a number of people. And the gullible ones came to claim the prize. Then, each one was asked to pick a key from a box and whoever got the right key would take home the car. And the rest was history - nobody got the right key. "****, nagkautang pa ako" - sabi nung guard namin.
