This collaborative effort aims to address the increasing incidents of fraudulent activities targeting mobile phone users through text messaging.
In a recent meeting, NTC officials highlighted the urgency of tackling text scams, which have become a growing concern among telecommunications regulators and service providers. The discussions focused on leveraging technological capabilities and user engagement strategies to enhance awareness and prevent unsuspecting users from falling victim to these scams.
Meta, known for its extensive user base and digital platforms, including Facebook and Instagram, expressed its commitment to supporting NTC’s initiatives. The company emphasized the importance of collaborative efforts in safeguarding users’ digital experiences and maintaining trust within the online community.
Viber, a prominent messaging app widely used in the Philippines, also underscored its role in combating text scams. By leveraging its messaging platform and security protocols, Viber aims to implement proactive measures to detect and mitigate fraudulent activities.
Moving forward, the partnership between NTC, Meta, and Viber will continue to evolve, with a focus on implementing effective countermeasures against text scams.
