요약:99 people were arrested as authorities raid a Philippines crypto, forex scam hub in Parañaque City, involving fraudulent investment and love scams.
MANILA, Philippines– Authorities detained 99 Filipino and international persons in a raid on an alleged crypto and FX scam center in Parañaque City on Thursday morning, as part of a broad crackdown on online fraud. The National Capital Region Police Office (NCRPO) spearheaded the operation, which included cops storming the AIA Company's office on the 9th floor of Centrium Tower 1 in Barangay Baclaran about 2 a.m.
The detained persons comprised not just Filipino laborers, but also 64 foreign citizens. There were 56 Chinese nationalities, four Malaysians, two Myanmar nationals, one Indonesian, and one Vietnamese. Those detained included significant officials from the firm, such as Nan Shan (manager), Detu Su (owner), and Wu Jian Bin (supervisor).
Maj. Gen. Jose Melencio Nartatez, commander of the NCRPO, indicated that the operation was carried out in response to validated intelligence allegations that the corporation was engaged in fraudulent cryptocurrency investments and love scams. These actions were carried out under the pretext of running a reputable offshore gaming corporation. However, it was determined that AIA Company had not registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).
According to reports, the organization hired customer service representatives (CSRs) to carry out the scam by constructing false identities, such as affluent models, to entice victims to invest in a rigged cryptocurrency exchange or trading platform. These victims were tempted with promises of large profits, only to lose their money in the fraud. According to Maj. Gen. Nartatez, the operation targeted vulnerable people using deceptive techniques to secure illegal investments.
During the search, police investigators uncovered multiple rooms in the office building that were reportedly used to shoot obscene performances. Filipino workers implicated in the fraud said that they were pressured into these actions, with some being forced to dress attractively and participate in sexual behavior as part of the scam operation.
Authorities are currently drafting charges against the detained people, including breaches of the 2012 Cybercrime Prevention Act and the Philippine Securities Regulation Code. These rules are intended to safeguard individuals from online fraud and to guarantee that all organizations providing financial services adhere to legal requirements.
The raid shows the Philippine government's continuous efforts to prevent fraudulent crypto and FX trading operations that target both local and international victims. The crackdown seeks to restore faith in the financial markets and guarantee that similar schemes are quickly shut down.
The Philippines remains a target for crypto and forex fraudsters, who take advantage of the country's expanding online trading industry. This recent operation serves as a warning to Filipinos to exercise caution while participating in online investment opportunities, especially those that promise exceptionally large returns.
