This morning I received the following text message:

Congratulations! Your cellphone number had won 5 million Pesos unclaimed prize at the PCSO (Philippine Charity Sweepstake Office) Main Office, PCSO Building, QI Complex, E. Rodriguez Ave, Quezon City. Please call Rosario Oriarte, 0906-XXXXXXX, General Manager of PCSO, bring valid ID, Cedula, Birth certificate, two GLOBE cards and your bank account number!

I am sure many of you have received simular message, also regarding other network companies. I called up the PCSO office here in Davao City and was informed, that investigations are still ongoing. The media is being informed. The only thing we can do, is ignoring or deleting such “Congratulations”.
