Notice to the Public

June 20, 2024 

We have received reports that certain individuals are impersonating IPOPHL’s Deputy Director General Atty. Ann Claire Cabochan, specifically targeting suppliers under the guise of soliciting sponsorship fees that could run to the tune of P500,000. Scammers repeatedly call the companies, providing bank account details via email for fund transfers.

We take this matter very seriously and are actively cooperating with authorities to investigate this issue. If you encounter any suspicious communication or requests claiming affiliation with our company, please exercise caution and verify the authenticity directly through official channels.

Meanwhile, IPOPHL shall:

  • Report the mobile numbers involved to the National Telecommunications Commission (NTC).
  • Seek assistance from the National Bureau of Investigation (NBI) for further investigation.

We urge all our partners and stakeholders to remain vigilant and report any suspicious activities promptly to our social media channels, our customer support email (customerservice@ipophil.gov.ph) or our hotline (02 7238 6300).

Rest assured that the complaints will be handled accordingly.
