Sep 1, 2024, 04:21 AM
Philippine authorities conducted a significant raid on August 31 on a suspected illegal online gaming and cyber scam complex in a central province, detaining more than 150 individuals, primarily Chinese and Indonesians. The operation, led by the Presidential Anti-Organized Crime Commission, took place at the Tourist Garden Hotel in Lapu Lapu City, Cebu. This marks the first discovery of an illegal POGO (Philippine Offshore Gaming Operator) hub in the Visayas region following a nationwide ban in July. The raid highlights ongoing efforts to combat illegal gambling and related cyber activities in the Philippines.
