GCash reminds users to stay vigilant vs online scams

GCash reminds users to stay vigilant vs online scams

GCash, the country’s no.1 mobile wallet app, reminded users to exercise more caution and vigilance as various online scams continue to proliferate.

Customers must watch out for “Account Takeover” wherein log-in details are compromised due to phishing scams. Scammers often use fake social media accounts and pretend to be GCash agents offering to solve their tickets or concerns with their GCash wallets, but the ultimate goal is to steal money from the victims.

Swindling is another modus that happens when a scammer tricks a user into buying a service or product and paying for it using GCash but will not deliver the item that has been paid for.

Another frequent cause of unauthorized charges is when GCash users allow other people, sometimes family members, access to their accounts. Oftentimes, a friend or family member would use their account to purchase or subscribe to a service without the owner’s knowledge.

In light of these scams, GCash has several reminders to help ensure users can protect their accounts from fraudsters:

To avoid account takeovers, users should never give out any information about their accounts like MPINs and One-time Pins (OTP) and only transact with official channels like the GCash Help Center (help.gcash.com) or the GCash hotline: 2882. It’s also important for users to make sure they verify transactions within the GCash app to avoid giving important information to fake websites.

To avoid being swindled online, be sure to research and read reseller reviews on the product you’re buying and who you’re buying it from.

To avoid unauthorized charges and risks, GCash is reminding users to never share account details with other people and to always check before they tap ads or when downloading from applications they do not trust.

GCash also urges its users to stop the practice of lending or selling their accounts to receive potentially illicit remittances from others. This is commonly called the “money mule” scam. Account owners that are caught doing this illegal act can be prosecuted under the Anti-Money Laundering Act of 2021.

Aside from warning its users against various scams, the leading e-wallet is also working in tandem with the National Bureau Investigation (NBI), the Philippine National Police – Anti-Cybercrime Group (PNP-ACG), and PNP – Criminal Investigation and Detection Group (PNP-CIDG) to uncover online scams and apprehend perpetrators. So far, there have been a total of 17 arrested and imprisoned fraudsters.

Likewise, GCash maintains top-notch security systems and has tightened its user verification and onboarding process. From January 2021 to March 2022, the mobile wallet app has blacklisted 14,752 wallets due to “Account Takeover”, 4,609 wallets for swindling, and 923,164 for identity fraud.

“At GCash, we remain relentless in our pursuit against online scamming. We will continue to work closely with various authorities to fight scammers and protect our legitimate users. We are constantly upgrading our security systems, as well as educating our customers so that they can use the GCash app without worries,” said Martha Sazon, GCash President and CEO.

With its #GCheckMuna campaign, GCash also empowers users to be more vigilant in the face of scams. The company also just recently introduced the beta version of Gigi the chatbot to immediately help customers with their various scamming concerns/incidents. GCash users may also visit the Help Center at help.gcash.com to report a phishing scam anytime. Fake pages will then be taken down within 24 hours.

In addition, users can activate biometrics login such as face recognition and digital fingerprint to ensure that only they can access their GCash account. To do this, they just need to enable biometrics on the settings of their device and proceed to their GCash profile. After tapping “Biometrics Log-in,” a six-digit authentication code will be sent to the device. After submitting the code, the face recognition and fingerprint can now be used to log in on the GCash app.

Committed to keeping its platform secure, GCash also implements the Customer Protect Program, which is designed to help detect and prevent fraudulent activities. It also ensures users will not be held liable for unauthorized transactions made on their accounts.

5 features to look for when buying a new air conditioning unit

5 features to look for when buying a new air conditioning unit

My world for air conditioning! This oppressive heat is making me wilt. 🙁 I don’t know if it is normal weather, menopause, or global warming.  All I know is, for the first time in a long time I am seriously considering getting air conditioning for my room.

Our house has high ceilings and tall windows so in the past air conditioning was not a big consideration.  All I had to do was part the curtains and, voila!  A cool breeze comes in.  Another effective method has been to put a basin of water in front of the fan.  Lately, though, the air itself is warm so parting the curtain, having two fans pointing at me … all that is for naught when the air blowing towards me is not refreshing.  This makes working from home difficult.

Air conditioning technology has improved dramatically in the last few years. So, if you’re buying a new unit, make sure you get the most out of your purchase by looking for elements that will give your family not just the best cooling solution but also carries features that provide protection, comfort, and convenience.

One of the newest cooling solutions that provide the most advanced cooling solutions is the new Midea Pinnacle Highwall Inverter Series. Check out the 5 features that make it a great option when buying a split-type inverter aircon.

Super-efficient filters for better protection

UV Pro

UV Pro

Air-condition units are not only meant to keep the room cool but they should also provide better air quality to ensure protection from environmental contaminants that can harm the family.

The Midea Pinnacle gives peace of mind because it improves indoor air quality with its five stages of purification including UV Pro, which removes up to 86 percent of bacteria and viruses to leave only clean and fresh air, Dual Filters, 56 C Sterilization, and Air Guardian. This is an important consideration these days when we are in the midst of a pandemic and respiratory health is a major concern.

Energy-saving technology for cost efficiency

Traditional air conditioners can be costly because their power consumption trumps most appliances in your home. While it’s true that most inverter aircon features energy-saving technologies, Midea’s Pinnacle Highwall Inverter Series is equipped with an Energy Chip with SmartSave algorithm that lets users save up to 70 percent energy versus conventional air conditioners. That’s a cost-efficient way to keep the family cool for long hours with less than 2kilowatt-hour.

Self-cleaning for maximum comfort and savings

Air conditioners need regular cleaning and maintenance for them to function efficiently. But now, you can cut down on maintenance and cleaning expenses as Midea Pinnacle also features the iClean, a self-cleaning function that minimizes maintenance and maximizes your comfort and savings.

Flash cooling power with high ambient cooling

Normally, traditional air condition units take a few minutes before you can set up the thermostat to the lowest temperature. But with Midea Pinnacle’s Flash Cooling feature, it’s possible to cool a room in just 40 seconds as the unit can automatically set the temperature to 23°C. Aside from the Flash Cooling feature, Midea Pinnacle can also, reach the coolest temperature of 14°C with a high frequency of up to 120 hertz so you can enjoy a maximum level of comfort even during hot, humid days.

Low noise for comfort

The buzzing sound of compressors from traditional aircon units can be quite bothersome. But fortunately, that is not the case for the Midea Pinnacle Series. Now you can enjoy maximum comfort and convenience every day with its quiet operation of up to 20 decibels, and the Sweet Dream feature, which automatically adjusts temperature while you sleep.

So, if you’re planning on buying a new inverter aircon soon, look for these features to be sure you are getting the best cooling solution for your home.
