00:00The Bureau of Immigration is investigating where they found the new fixers who fled online following the arrest of two alleged government officials.
00:09The Presidential Anti-Organized Crime Commission believes that there is a big syndicate behind this that has sub-wats in different agencies.
00:17Salima Refran has the first news.
00:20The documents of the foreigners who were arrested by the authorities in their travel and visa consultancy agency were all fake.
00:31Aside from the fact that the government officials were the ones who identified the arrestees,
00:35and they were the ones who gave money to the spouses and partners of the POGO workers,
00:39they were also fixers of documents for the foreigners.
00:43There were also birth certificates and marriage certificates from the PSA, PNP, and NBI Clearance, as well as LTO driver's license.
00:53But the Philippine passport obtained by a foreigner with a Filipino name is more troublesome.
01:02The documents are being verified.
01:04This is an example of the Alice Goh scheme.
01:12It started with a late registration of her birth certificate.
01:25This was taken from Cabanatuan City.
01:29She also has a certificate of marriage.
01:33And then, her passport.
01:35What is the name of the passport?
01:39The name of the passport, marriage certificate, and birth certificate is the same.
01:45It's Filipino.
01:47The suspect is blacklisted and banned from the Bureau of Immigration due to illegal transactions.
01:53Among the spouses and partners of the POGO workers, 21 are their victims.
01:58The new fixer is now moving online.
02:03We also noticed that the offers of various agencies are moving to social media.
02:10This is no longer the old-fashioned fixer that is just spreading out there.
02:17Now, they have a bigger playground already, which is social media.
02:21There are people who offer help and then show success stories, right?
02:28And that's where they get enticed.
02:31According to the POGO workers, there is a big syndicate behind this
02:34that has connections to various agencies.
02:37They are now subject to follow-up operations.
02:41There were names that were signed by various agencies.
02:45The investigation that needs to be done here is from the agencies concerned,
02:50like PSA, LTO, DOLE, and Immigration.
02:55Definitely, they can go inside and out of those offices.
03:01They can move around.
03:03Because they have ITs, they are really employed.
03:08The POGO workers are encouraging all of their victims to speak up
03:13so that they can face other complaints.
03:17This is the first news in Lima, Refran for GMA Integrated News.
