Tatlong indibidwal na umano'y sangkot sa investment scam ang naaresto sa isang entrapment operation sa Zamboanga City, sinabi ng National Bureau of Investigation (NBI).

Kinilala ng NBI ang mga naaresto na sina Francis Arthur Dalguntas, Rehan Tamorda, at Farha Sali. Nahuli sila sa isinagawang entrapment operation ng Western Mindanao Regional Office (NBI-WEMRO) ng NBI sa kahabaan ng Governor Camins Avenue sa Zamboanga City noong Pebrero 7.

“The operatives were able to seize from the subjects their identification cards, 2 pieces P500 bills and 18 pieces P500 boodle money, one (1) cellular phone, various documents of quit-claim and Distributors Application Form, and one (1) Huawei tablet,” sabi ng NBI sa isang pahayag.

Sinabi nito na ang entrapment operation ay isinagawa batay sa reklamong inihain sa NBI-WEMRO na sinasabing “the subjects are using the name of NWORLD CORPORATION (NWORLD) and ALPHANETWORLD CORPORATION (ALPHANET) in their swindling activities.”

“The complaint alleged that NWORLD and ALPHANET are engaged in recruitment by convincing and promising their victims/applicants a return of 15 to 20 percent income, P20,000 worth of beauty products and P100,000 worth of insurance in exchange of their P10,000 investment but in truth, no such thing exists,” saad ng NBI.

“Verification from the Security and Exchange Commission disclosed that NWORLD and ALPHANET are registered in their system but are not authorized to engage in pooling of investment, thus, violating the Securities Regulation Code,” dagdag nito.
