00:00In front of the guerrilla operations against POGO foreign workers, hundreds of illegal aliens
00:07who were involved in the big raid of the Bureau of Immigration against the leading scam hub in Paranaque City.
00:13Louisa Erispe returns to the center of the news.
00:18In spite of the strict order of President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. that POGO is now prohibited in the Philippines,
00:24the Bureau of Immigration still has an eye on illegal POGOs operating in the country.
00:30Yesterday, they arrested a company in Barangay Tambo, Paranaque City,
00:37which not only illegally operates, but also scams.
00:42The Intelligence Unit of the B.I. obtained information that there are scamming operations in the area
00:48where the victims are from other countries.
00:51According to the B.I., when entering the area, 400 illegal aliens are scamming.
01:00According to the B.I., what they are doing is illegal because aside from violating immigration laws,
01:06they are also scamming or deceiving.
01:09That's why they were immediately arrested by immigration officers and it will remain in their custody
01:15until it is deported back to their country.
01:18According to the B.I., this will serve as a lesson to the former POGO workers who are stubborn
01:24and do not want to leave the Philippines.
01:26They should not force themselves to leave the country.
01:29Because when they are caught by the authorities, they will not only be arrested and deported,
01:35but they will also be blacklisted in the country.
01:37According to the B.I., illegal aliens will not be the only ones who will be punished
01:41because those who are involved in these activities are still involved.
01:45Even though the companies may be charged and punished,
01:48it can be proven that they are helping foreigners who are staying in the Philippines.
01:53According to the B.I., there are 11,000 illegal aliens who are being targeted by former POGO workers in the country.
