00:53As you can see, there are a lot of computers.
00:55And because this operation is still being processed,
00:58the employees assigned here in the computers are still here.
01:02This cell is one of the many cells in this area.
01:07According to the authorities, there is a digital encryption being done in each cell of this office.
01:13According to the Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corporation or Pagcor, this is one of the unlicensed Pogo.
01:18It is said that it is a common crypto investment scam.
01:21An employee explained their method on how to get the target victims inside.
01:26When they invest, we just let them in with money.
01:32They cannot withdraw.
01:34Every time I go home, I see my family.
01:37What if it's us?
01:39We just need to bring necessities.
01:42There is also a love scam.
01:44In the computer screens of the employees,
01:46the age and civil status of the victims are recorded in the messaging apps.
01:50There is a script that is followed to place the victim inside and give money.
01:55According to another employee who talked to GMA Integrated News,
01:58Filipinos and Banyagas are the ones who are running this scam hub.
02:02The recruiters are asking for money,
02:04but the employees themselves have a complaint against the company.
02:08They say that the people are not the ones who are in charge.
02:10A recruiter explained to us that they will give us a big salary.
02:21But if we do something wrong,
02:24we will be penalized.
02:27What did you do?
02:29We just get the information, like name and age.
02:35After that, we let them in.
02:38Approximately four employees will be processed by the police in this scam hub.
02:43The police refused to give a salary because the operation is still ongoing.
02:52Authorities are now in contact with the owner of the house
02:56where Raid, a non-licensed POGO according to the PAG-COR,
03:01used the scam hub.
