Tesda chief warns vs scam
Technical Education and Skills Development Authority (Tesda) chief Guiling Mamondiong has warned against a scam using his name to collect money supposedly for a drug rehabilitation program.
In an advisory to all Tesda officials, Mamondiong asked them to ignore phone calls seeking to collect financial contributions from them purportedly upon his instructions.
Mamondiong said that he never uses the telephone to communicate his directives or orders to any attached agency of Tesda. Tesda officials were also instructed to verify with his office any message relayed to them by phone.
He said he had asked the National Bureau of Investigation (NBI) to investigate the person behind the racket, who had been calling in his behalf to seek monetary assistance for the government’s drug rehabilitation program.
