    Yeah, received similar, long time ago. Same site. Wish I could bombard that guy's server with a few nasty worms...

    Ang pagbalik ng comeback...

    Ang stupid dyan ay NTC, pwede naman ipa register ung mga pre paid sim pero hanga ngayon hindi ginagawa.

    sa tingin ko kasi, every txt meron tax, so the more texter the more tax. kahit na ung mag txt sayo ay scam.

    May commission NTC sa mga racket na iyan kaya kahit sa ikakabuti ng nakakarami ang required sim registration ay sila pa ang gumagawa ng dahilan para huwag ipatupad.

    I have done that. I have a txt bomb app in an old phone I used to use. As long as you can send out SMS, you can send a message to a specific mobile number for a set number of times in a user selected interval. (example: 500 times at a rate of 1 per minute)... Unfortunately, I think SMART has gotten "smart" to the txt bomb app and only "unique" messages will get through. So if I send the exact same message to the same number, only one will get through. Fortunately, the app also has a feature to add a "count" number to the message so it all still gets through.

    first of all, the sender's phone number is not a business-type number. it's a private person's.
    second, no decent bank will ask sensitive info over the air.
    this has been iterated over and over, by the banks.

    But the scam probably fools a lot of people. Otherwise they wouldn't keep trying it.

    We're not the target.

    It's a net, cast out to snare the non-tech savvy, seniors/elderly, and even the clever who may just be tired/fatigued and not "100%" alert (napindot lang etc.)

    Maganda nga yan napapagusapan, so more people become aware and alert.

    Kahit genius level IQ pa ang isang tao, hindi naman tayo lagi "listo". Even the smart relax their guard (you'd be paranoid/mental soon if you'd be critically scrutinizing everything).

    Maraming matatalino naisahan nung bago pa yung mga "dugo dugo" call scams dati, sama mo na yung fake utility worker scam (akyat bahay syndicato or extortion racket pala) and something more recent, like yung fake Shopee/Lazada COD delivery (na wala palang real order).

    Nowadays, alam na ng mga marami ang mga modus na ito kasi kalat na, so its harder for these con men to operate; forcing them to think of other ways to outsmart... even the smart.

    i once received such text message, concerning my "BDO account".
    i immediately knew it was a scam, because i didn't have a BDO account.

    a colleague once received a text message, informing her that she had won a sizeable amount of money (in a 'contest' she does not remember joining). but she had to pasa-load 300 bucks to collect."
    "so did you?"
    "yes. it's only 300 pesos. pano kung totoo nga...?"
    heh heh.

    also the domain name of the website written on the sms. bdo.com.ph is the legitimate domain of BDO.

    Smishing and other cyber-attacks are now "normal" and it's really incumbent upon the individual to protect yourself at all times.

    Use Google Messages. It's been great at catching suspected and actual spam/scam messages.

    I sometimes browse through the Google Messages spam folder and amuse myself on the myriad of ways they try to elicit something from me. lol
