MANILA, Philippines — The Bureau of Corrections yesterday warned the public of a fake Facebook page using the name of BuCor chief Gerald Bantag to solicit donations.
“This is a fake account. The director general has not made any request for donation nor has authoritized anyone on his behalf to accept monetary donations on his behalf for whatever purpose,” the bureau said in a post on its Facebook page.
“Furthermore, the BuCor has not asked anyone nor authorized anyone to do the same,” it added.
The “fake” Facebook page of Bantag, which is still up as of yesterday, posted photos of the BuCor chief with other high-ranking officials.
