Globe strengthens collaboration with police to clamp down fraudsters

Press Release

Globe has stepped up its collaboration with law enforcement authorities to go after scammers, as it continues its crackdown against fraud. This has led to significant wins, including the arrest and prosecution of suspects. 

Recently, one suspect in a fake payments scheme was arrested in San Pedro, Laguna. Joel Drilon Mahing, a man charged for a string of fraud-linked cases, is now facing trial for allegedly making fake payments through bounced checks.

A former credit card agent, Mahing has a long history of credit card fraud targeting financial institutions, dating back to 2013. He had been apprehended by police for separate cases in 2016 and 2019, even making the news, but managed to post bail.  

“This arrest is a significant victory not only for Globe but also for the entire financial industry. It sends a strong message that fraud will not be tolerated and that we will relentlessly pursue those who seek to defraud our company and our customers. We commend the police for their unwavering support and collaboration in this case,” said Armi Camasura, Fraud Forensics Head at Globe.

“Financial fraud is a serious crime that undermines trust in businesses and hurts the economy. Globe will continue to vigilantly monitor fraudulent activities and actively assist authorities in prosecuting these unlawful acts to the full extent of the law,” said Froilan Castelo, Globe’s General Counsel. 

Globe is committed to sustaining its collaboration with authorities to ensure that fraudsters are held accountable for their actions. The company continues to enhance its fraud detection and prevention strategies to provide a secure environment for its customers and stakeholders.
