Love may be blind, but trust shouldn’t be: GCash strengthens consumer protection efforts against love scams
‘
GCash continues to step up its security systems and awareness campaigns as part of its thrust in consumer protection. The initiative aligns with advisories from the Cybercrime Investigation and Coordinating Center (CICC), the Department of Information and Communications Technology (DICT), and the Philippine National Police Anti-Cybercrime Group (PNP-ACG).
Authorities say love scams remain one of the most common online fraud schemes, where criminals build and take advantage of emotional connections before asking for money. Recent data from the CICC show 123 love scam complaints in 2025, with 18 cases recorded in January 2026 alone. Cases usually increase during the love month as scammers become more active.
Common signs of romance/love scams
Government advisories highlight several warning signs:
· Sudden requests for money under the guise of emergencies, travel, or medical needs
· Refusal to meet in person or join live video calls
· Profiles with overly polished or unrealistic photos
· Persistent pressure to send money or invest in unfamiliar platforms
Authorities remind the public to be extra vigilant, verify identities, and avoid sending money to people they have only met online.
Investing in prevention and user protection
To help stop scams before they happen, GCash continues to invest in technology, partnerships, and user education. The company works closely with the DICT, CICC, PNP-ACG, and the National Bureau of Investigation (NBI) to support investigations and public awareness efforts.
On the platform, GCash maintains several layers of protection, including:
· Verified user identities through strict KYC processes
· Real-time fraud monitoring
· Account security features such as PINs, OTPs, and device checks
· Confirmation prompts when sending money to a new contact or recipient
· In-app advisories on common scam tactics
Users can also report suspicious activity through the app’s Help Center or official customer support channels.
“Love scams often rely on emotional manipulation rather than technical attacks,” said Miguel Geronilla, Chief Information Security Officer at Mynt, parent company of GCash. “We continue to strengthen our security systems and work closely with government agencies, but users should always verify before sending money to someone they only know online,” he added.
Government advisories also note that senior citizens are among the most targeted groups, making awareness and platform safeguards even more important.
Through continued investments in security, partnerships, and public education, GCash aims to create a safer digital financial experience for Filipinos, making cybersecurity a top priority for GCash, our partners, and regulators.
Craving something tasty while you’re at SM Center Pulilan? You’ve got two best options: Wendy’s and Buffalo’s Wings N’ Things.
Craving something tasty while you’re at SM Center Pulilan? You’ve got two best options: Wendy’s and Buffalo’s Wings N’ Things.
Let’s kick things off with Wendy’s. You really can’t go wrong here: fresh burgers, big flavors, and no shortcuts. The Baconator? That thing’s a monster. Juicy patties and crisp bacon, all stacked up just right. If you want something lighter, grab their Spicy Chicken Sandwich, get some crispy fries, and don’t forget a Frosty. Seriously, it always hits the spot. Whether you’re racing through your lunch break or just hanging out, Wendy’s always delivers that comfort-food fix.
Now for something with a little more kick: Buffalo’s Wings N’ Things. Their wings are the main event. Pick your sauce; go mild with Garlic Parmesan or all-in with the Firehouse Classic if you’re up for the heat. And it’s not just about the wings; the sides are legit too. Chili N’ Cheese Nachos and Chicken Quesadilla, likewise, are excellent choices. Not into wings? The Boneless Chicken and Original Chicken Fingers are a total knockout.
The best part? Both spots are right inside the mall. So, you can eat, wander around, shop, or just hang out without ever leaving SM Center Pulilan. Swing by Wendy’s or Buffalo’s Wings N’ Things. Good food, easy to find, and always worth it.

Hello Glow delivers professional-grade skincare made for real Filipino skin and real tropical conditions. Designed for everyday use yet powered by clinical-level ingredients, the brand focuses on results that actually work in heat, humidity, pollution, and high sun exposure.
Instead of copying global formulas made for colder climates, Hello Glow builds systems that address what local skin really goes through—persistent acne, excess oil, uneven tone, early aging, and barrier stress. The result: effective, climate-smart skincare that fits seamlessly into daily routines.
Three systems, three targeted solutions
Many international brands offer strong actives but aren’t designed for tropical wear. Others are affordable but lack performance. Hello Glow bridges that gap with three curated systems, each built to solve specific skin concerns using dermatologist-trusted ingredients.
Advanced Rejuvenating Set: serious renewal, done right
This four-step system delivers high-performance actives often found in clinic-level treatments: AHAs, BHAs, bakuchiol, niacinamide, and micro-encapsulated retinol. Together, they work beneath the surface to refine texture, fade stubborn marks, and visibly renew skin.
To counter irritation—especially important in hot, polluted environments—the formula is balanced with skin-supporting ingredients like hexylresorcinol, centella asiatica, ceramides, and hyaluronic acid. This ensures powerful results without compromising comfort.
Best for visible aging signs, rough texture, acne scarring, or uneven tone that refuses to fade. True to the brand’s philosophy, it delivers transformative results without harsh chemicals—and remains accessible whether you shop online or in-store.
Blemish Miracle System: Clear skin without punishment
Humidity fuels oil. Oil clogs pores. Breakouts follow. The Blemish Miracle System is designed to interrupt this cycle with four targeted steps that treat active acne while helping prevent future flare-ups.
Key ingredients include centella asiatica to calm inflammation, licorice root to fade post-acne marks, chamomile to soothe irritation, rosemary leaf for antimicrobial support, and green tea to regulate oil while delivering antioxidants.
Unlike traditional acne treatments that overdry and weaken the skin barrier, this system understands that even oily, breakout-prone skin needs hydration. When skin is stripped, it produces more oil. This formula treats without punishing.
Active Defense System: Everyday protection for balanced skin
Not all skin needs intensive correction. Some just need daily defense against sun, pollution, and environmental stress. The Active Defense System strengthens skin before problems appear.
Tea tree helps protect against environmental aggressors while supporting scar care. Salicylic acid keeps pores clear. Green tea balances oil and hydration. Licorice root brightens, while rosemary calms stressed skin and supports early anti-aging.
Ideal for generally clear skin with occasional breakouts, constant sun or pollution exposure, first-time skincare users, or as maintenance after intensive treatments.
Skincare built for Filipino skin and lifestyle
Hello Glow’s formulas are created with local realities in mind—high humidity, strong UV exposure, and busy daily routines. Each system is designed to stay stable in heat, work well across morena and other Filipino skin tones, and deliver professional-grade performance at approachable price points.
The Advanced Rejuvenating Set suits aging concerns, stubborn dark spots, rough texture, or acne scars (with proper sun protection).
The Blemish Miracle System targets active breakouts, inflammatory acne, combination skin, and post-acne marks.
The Active Defense System works best for generally balanced skin, environmental exposure, beginners, or post-treatment upkeep.
All three systems are suitable for dry, normal, combination, and oily skin types—and are formulated to perform in Philippine weather.
Skincare that speaks Filipino
Hello Glow proves that effective skincare doesn’t have to be intimidating, inaccessible, or imported. By pairing clinical-grade ingredients with climate-smart formulation, the
brand makes real results achievable for everyday Filipinos. In a crowded skincare market, Hello Glow stands out with proven actives, thoughtfully designed systems, and formulas that genuinely understand local skin needs—no unnecessary hype, no compromise.

For many, a marathon is a grueling 42-kilometer test of physical endurance. But for the members of the InLife Sheroes TBR Dream Crew 2026, the journey toward The Bull Runner (TBR) InLife Dream Marathon is a profound act of love, a celebration of self-worth, family, and the courage to start anew.
As the title sponsor of the marathon on February 15, 2026, InLife is not just supporting a race; it is fueling a movement of personal transformation, embodied by the InLife Sheroes TBR Dream Crew 2026. The group is composed of women and “He-for-She” male supporters who embody InLife Sheroes campaign, “#StartWithin.”
#StartWithin addresses a phenomenon many Filipino women face: “inspiralysis,” the state of being inspired but paralyzed by the noise of surface-level empowerment. Through the InLife Sheroes platform, InLife provides the tools, mentorship, and spaces necessary to turn that internal spark into action. The Bull Runner Dream Marathon is the ultimate manifestation of this mission, proving that real empowerment begins in the quiet, often messy process of looking inward, deciding to love oneself enough to pursue a dream, and taking that first intentional step toward who we are truly meant to become.
Running for healing and empowerment
The stories of the InLife Sheroes TBR Dream Crew 2026 highlight how empowerment and inner strength are built and nurtured through personal struggle and the everyday decision to keep moving forward.
Roselle Banaag began her journey during a low point of stress and depression. Today, she runs to honor her growth, transforming that initial pain into power and peace. “One day, I had to walk home, broke and lost. That walk hit 6k steps, which sparked a goal to reach 10k daily. With just thrifted shoes, I kept going. I started from a place of pain, stress, and depression, and found healing, strength, and peace through running. This marathon is more than a race. It’s a celebration of resilience, discipline, and the power of choosing to keep moving forward.”
Maan Batac runs for her two children diagnosed with autism. To her, every stride is a tribute to their daily courage. “They face challenges every day with courage and grace. Their journey inspires mine. Running now symbolizes strength, patience, and unconditional love. I dream of completing a marathon not just to tick off a goal, but to show them that persistence pays off. Even when the road is long and uncertain, we keep moving forward.”
Jomar Luczon started running “just to breathe” while feeling stuck in life. “I was stuck in a cycle of work-eat-sleep and have forgotten myself. I want to prove the past version of myself, the one that was tired, lost, and ready to give up, that we can make it. Each kilometer I run is a reminder that I am healing, growing, and choosing myself.”
Josel Castro’s self-discovery through running has become proof of the undying spirit of women. “I have endometriosis, and for the past few years, this illness controlled me. I want to become the strongest version of myself. Running is about showing up for every early run, every doubt that needed to be conquered, and every breakthrough that needed to be celebrated.”
JB Bagallon, once an athlete, admits taking a turn for the worse after graduating from his studies. “Work, vices, and unhealthy habits led me away from running. Becoming a father changed everything. I now run for my daughter to prove the value of perseverance, and for my wife, who believes in me. Every mile is a step toward becoming the best version of myself for them, and for me.”
The power of mentorship and community
The InLife Sheroes TBR Dream Crew 2026 underwent a rigorous coaching journey under renowned World Triathlon Level 2 Coach Nylah Bautista. This mentorship provided the technical discipline needed for a first marathon, but the program offers something more vital: a sense of belonging.
Dale Henson and Jessa Vitangcol note that having a coach and a supportive community have kept them accountable for their own health, and helped them train smarter, building the discipline, confidence, and endurance not just to reach the finish line, but also live more empowered lives. Luigi Galvez agrees as he says, “being surrounded by others chasing the same goal, makes everything more meaningful. It’s not just about the distance, it’s about growth.”
For Bea Villegas, being part of the Dream Crew has made her realize what she is capable of doing, and how she could further improve herself, something echoed by Mark Alborida who views this Marathon as a turning point in his life, pushing him to go beyond his limits.
“At InLife, we believe that real empowerment is not just about finding inspiration but acting on it. The TBR InLife Dream Marathon embodies this conviction as these runners rise for themselves. InLife is proud to support these marathoners who are proving to all that the most important race they will ever cover is the one that circles back to their own strength,” said InLife Chief Marketing Officer Gae L. Martinez
A Record-Breaking Journey
This year’s marathon is set to be the largest in the event’s history, welcoming a record 3,000 participants to Filinvest City, Alabang. Among them will be InLife employees and partners, running alongside the InLife Sheroes TBR Dream Crew as living ambassadors of perseverance, discipline, and conquering dreams.
In a world that can often feel harsh, these runners remind us that it is never too late to start a journey of self-discovery. By the time they cross the finish line this February 15, they won’t just be marathoners. They will be the living embodiment of what it means to #StartWithin: to be moved by internal conviction and to keep showing up for themselves, proving that the strength they discovered on this marathon journey will continue to fuel their breakthroughs long after they finish the race.
