Ano pwede mangyari?

The going rate for basic info on a person is only P1 (1 peso). This is the amount certain companies (credit card companies, telemarketing companies, etc.) pay to unscrupulous firms or individuals to get personal info. Ang bentahan kasi, usually in bulk, so although it may look cheap, bawi naman sa volume.

Kung tatawag pa sa cellular phone yun just to confirm your personal info, masyadong magastos.

Baka naman nagsi-C.I. or B.I. (credit/background investigation) lang. Ganun din kasi ang style namin if we wanted to validate personal information.

ang bottom line nito never give any information about yourself to strangers... sa panahon ngayon marami ng nagsusulputang racket para kumita.

sir,
based on my experience totoo yan, I have rcvd a call last summer sa smart prepaid ko , una duda din ako they ask my name n address lang naman , no credit card number or other info, after 2 weeks may simcard na from globe

[AnuVaYan]

dun sa post mo "May tumawag sa akin"
talo sila sa cost...

baka may kaaway ka gusto malaman saan ka nakatira... hehe

actually kaya nga medyo na convince ako e kasi iniisip ko hindi gagawin ng scammer yun kasi talo siya sa cost, however, kung tiga loob ng telecoms office yun, syempre mura lang sa kanila yun, e pinatagal ko pa talaga yung pag uusap namin.

kaaway? sino pa kaya ang makakaaway ko e bahay at school lang ng anak ko ang punta ko. hindi din naman ako masyadong ma usisa sa mga ibang sundo ng mga bata.

pero iniisip ko, baka nagkamali ulit sila... kasi dati din may nagpapa cute sa akin sa cp, yun pala kapareho ng cp number ko kaya lang 0918 yung totoong recepient.

baka may kaaway si 0918 tapos napagkamalang ako na naman

You should have asked their contact info first then tell them you will call them back. That way you can still track them down, or if you have the cell number post it here so people will know whom to avoid.

actually nagtanong naman ako ng hotline nila, e since binigay naman niya agad agad, mas lalong naging kampante ako. kaya ayun bigay ko na info.

pero bakit kaya nung tinawagan ko globe hotline e wala daw na ganung promo? baka naman kaya dati may promo na ganun, pero ngayon wala na.

baka nagkataon bago yun naka usap mo na taga globe kaya hindi alam, actually TWICE na ako natawagan ,same prepaid number but I think magkaibang telemaketer company, nun 1st time last year duda talaga ako sa offer nila, sensing that I in doubt the telemakketer gave me their office landline number to verify if its true, so tinawagan ko mukhang totoo naman, after 2 weeks may simpak nga , yun 2nd call same offer again so I just give the info that they ask me name/address/maiden name yun lang , after 2 weeks may simpak ulit

nothing to worry, as long as you didnt give your full details.

Baka totoo yan. I was given 2 free sim cards from globe pero hindi sa bahay kundi dun sa POEA nung kumuha ako ng OEC.

di naman siguro.

Thousands of businesses have their addresses and landlines advertised in the yellow pages and websites. If it was that risky, nobody would advertise.

It's like people knowing ur savings account number. They can't do anything to the account. They can only deposit money into it.

The telemarketers just put u in their database. potential customer ka. That's it.

They can also sell the database to other telemarketing firms.

Yes, malamang lead generation yung campaign nung tumawag sayo. Save lang nila yung info na nakuha sayo for future reference. Just like what uls said, "potential customer ka" na.

Don't worry.

Pero di maganda yung style nila, gumagamit pa ng ibang company name at nangangako pa ng kung ano-ano para lang makakuha ng info sayo. Tsk, tsk, tsk.
