The Bureau of Customs on Friday advised overseas Filipino workers to coordinate with legitimate consolidators in order to avoid falling for fraudulent schemes on processing balikbayan boxes ahead of the Christmas season.
“Maaari po sana ay siguraduhin ninyo po sa ating mga kababayan na nasa Middle East lalo na po, siguraduhin po na lehitimo yung makakatransaction nilang consolidators upang maiwasan na po natin mabiktima ng mga kumakalat na schemes na ito,” Dela Torre said. “So yung consolidator abroad meron silang partner sa Pilipinas na tinatawag na de-consolidator. So kung ito po ay walang pondo na maibigay sa de-consolidator para bayaran ang proseso ng pag release, pagdeliver, at pagbayad sa BOC, ‘yun pong mga balikbayan boxes na ‘yan ay dahilan po upang maideklara ng BOC na abandon ang mga balikbayan boxes,” he said.
