Comedienne-TV host Pokwang couldn’t hold back tears as she publicly revealed the loss of her money from her GCash mobile wallet.
During her Instagram Live on Saturday, November 9, 2024, she emotionally shared that almost PHP85,000 of her money in GCash had disappeared without their knowledge.
The amount of money involved is the profit from her “gourmet business”, so she was devastated when it vanished like a bubble.
She tearfully said on her IG Live : “Binalik ko po yung negosyo na mag-isa, ibinangon ko po ulit mag-isa. May mga kaibigan po akong tumulong, nagpahiram po sa akin ng pera.
“Binangon ko po yung negosyo, ang ganda po kasi nakakabalik po ako paunti-unti. Nakakapagbigay po ako ng trabaho sa mga single mom.
“[Pero] yung pinagpaguran mo, yung naipon mo, pagkagising mo isang araw wala na.”
This includes Pokwang’s appeal to the GCash management to help her recover her lost money.
“GCash baka naman may magawa kayo, nasimot po yung pera namin, nasimot po yung pinagpaguran namin. Kasama po doon yung pagpasuweldo sa mga tao.”
Pokwang marked that she didn’t receive the one-time password (OTP) sent to her mobile phone, which is the standard operating procedure of GCash for every transaction of all their subscribers.
“Ano pong nangyari doon sa registered SIM natin na policy ngayon? Ang dami pong transaksiyon na nangyari, tatlumpung transaksiyon po, iba-ibang number.
“Inubos po yung laman ng GCash ng anak ko, kunsaan po pumapasok yung mga bayad po sa order.
“Nakakalungkot lang kasi lumalaban ka nang patas, naghahanap-buhay ka tapos may mga taong ganyan [mapagsamantala].” She added.
