Law enforcement agencies in the Philippines have successfully dismantled a crime ring operating in Parañaque City, specializing in online scams and violating immigration laws. The operation involved multiple agencies, including the Parañaque City Police, Bureau of Immigration, and National Bureau of Investigation.
A composite team of law enforcers has dismantled a crime ring based in Parañaque City and specializing in online scam operations. The raid was staged by operatives of the Parañaque City police, the Bureau of Immigration intelligence, fugitive search, and anti-terrorist group, as well as the National Bureau of Investigation who swooped down on the syndicate’s headquarters at a corporate center on Aseana Ave., Brgy. Tambo, Parañaque.
Those arrested were allegedly engaged in various unlawful activities, including online scams and violating Immigration laws. Among those apprehended was a foreigner identified only as Liang, with some 400 foreign and local nationals involved in illegal activities. “The Southern Police District (SPD) will fully support and coordinate with other law enforcement agencies in addressing illegal activities involving foreign nationals. We stand with the Bureau of Immigration in ensuring that those engaged in unlawful activities are held accountable, while maintaining the integrity of our immigration laws in the Philippines,” SPD chief Brig. Gen. Manuel Abrugena said
