00:00Authorities arrested a company in Laguna that was held by the arrested Pogo Kingpin, Lin Shu Han, alias Boss Boga.
00:10But the computers were no longer hard drive and were now backlash.
00:14In Makati City, 17 people were arrested, possibly from the bigger Pogo, because they were involved in various scams and hacking.
00:23Salima Refrat was the first to be reported.
00:3017 people were arrested in a house in Makati City for being involved in love scam, crypto scam and hacking.
00:38There's a hacker, there's a buyer of the data.
00:40We saw a program code and a script that can be used to access other systems without the authority nor consent of our system owner.
00:50We assume that they have activity in terms of hacking.
00:54According to the NBI,
00:55since the bigger Pogo operation, Malaysians, Taiwanese and Chinese are being counted.
01:03The bigger Pogo has been grouped into a smaller group.
01:08Residential units and apartments are being occupied so that it's not obvious that it's still a Pogo to continue with their scamming activities.
01:22We asked them where their passports are.
01:25They said it's in the B.I. for the process of downgrading.
01:29Working visa, but it's now being downgraded as tourist.
01:32They were inquested for online fraud and hacking in the Cyber Crime Prevention Act.
01:37The GMA Integrated News tried to get hold of those arrested, but they haven't been found yet.
01:44In Laguna, the PAG Corps, Presidential Anti-Organized Crime Commission of Paok, Binan LGU and Binan Police inspected
01:52New Wave Infotech Ltd. Philippines.
01:55But they found something different.
01:57As you can see, the computers have been downgraded.
02:02The monitors, the CPUs, the hard drives of those computers have been downgraded and everything is gone.
02:13Obviously, they are hiding something.
02:16The first thing they removed were the hard drives.
02:20The digital evidence, they removed all of that.
02:24It's unusual.
02:25Of course, when closing, the first thing we would do is to get the valuable set.
02:31We know that computers have value.
02:34The company is an IGL or Internet Gaming Licensee.
02:38But according to Paok, they have information that Lin Shun Han, a.k.a. Boss Boga,
02:45who is the Godfather of the Illegal Pogo in the country, is responsible for this.
02:49The other 12 Chinese who were arrested with him,
02:52the Middle Managers of New Wave and the bosses of other Pogos, believed it.
02:57Lin Shun Han is the big boss of New Wave.
03:00New Wave came from other Pogos that were raided before.
03:04We have a reasonable ground to believe that New Wave's involvement is more on scamming.
03:10So maybe he has legitimate offshore gaming.
03:13According to Paok,
03:15We received a report that on Friday early in the morning, when the boss was arrested,
03:19on Thursday night, on Friday early in the morning, those who were staying here,
03:23each one of them had their own hard drive.
03:25We are still trying to get hold of the company's hard drive.
03:28Boss Boga will also be called for the next hearing of the Senate,
03:32which is said to be related to the dismissal of Bamban Mayor Alice Guo.
03:36According to Paok's witness,
03:39Guo reported to Boss Boga as Madam Hua,
03:43related to the establishment of Pogo in Bamban, Tarlac.
03:46Of course, he's irritated.
03:48First of all, there's no truth to these allegations.
03:52It's a deadline for Pogo's foreign employees to downgrade their working visas
03:57as a preparation for Pogos to leave the country before the year ends.
04:02They will be given a temporary visitor visa at 59 days or almost two months to leave the Philippines.
04:10According to the Bureau of Immigration,
04:12more than 12,000 people voluntarily downgraded their visas.
04:33Paok admitted that it's not easy to get rid of more than 100 illegal Pogos.
04:38They also warned the property owners
04:41that the money of the Pogo operators who are looking for land should not be wasted.
04:47Please make sure that you do your due diligence.
04:50Because if we prove that you allow your facilities to be used for illegal activities,
04:56we will lock you up.
04:57We will file a civil forfeiture so that the government can get your properties.
05:02This is the first news in 5 Refrans for GMA Integrated News.
