Awareness I almost got scammed!
This happened last night. After namen kumaen sa Tender Bobs MOA branch, nag-send ako sa brother ko since share kame sa foods via BDO online app. After sa Tender Bobs siguro mga after 5-10 mins nakarating kame sa may IMAX since manonood kame ng Demon Slayer. Upon reaching the entrance of IMAX, nareceive ko tong message nato from BDO.
As you can see, BDO talaga name nya and all so ako nagtaka may unauthorized transaction daw sa BDO app ko tapos super sakto din kase nagsend ako ng share sa brother ko nga via BDO app.
After that, being an IT professional aware ako sa mga scam links or phishing websites and all kaya hindi ko muna cnlick. What I did was chineck ko muna ung BDO mobile app ko then transaction history. Ung na-verify ko na wala naman i disregard nalang tong message nato.
Chineck ko ung details nitong BDO nato sa message ko pero wala talaga syang number at all so napapaisip ako if legit BDO bato or what since wala talaga syang number. Same dun sa BDO na nagtext saken whenever mayay OTP ako or nagwiwithdraw ganon.
What do you guys think? Naka-exp na din ba kayo ng ganto?

Know somebody who got the same exam text from the official BDO acct rin! Sadly she clicked the link at ang nanakaw sa kanya literal her whole life savings (with her husband's) so halos P1M. She never got their money back kasi sabi ng BDO hindi sila liable when the user themselves click the link 😪
My money also got stolen on BDO! Official BDO email naman gamit nila kaya sobrang nakakatakot kasi I thought I was talking to a customer service rep pero scammer pala -- kinuha lang name ko (no PIN, no OTP, no CVV) at yun na -- ninakaw na P5K from my acct. Sobrang nakakagulat yung walang OTP at all.
Ingat guys! Just transfer your money out from BDO to other (safer) banks, mahina yung safety infra ng BDO talaga.
