Ang lala ng fake endorsement lately sa digital platforms.
Imagine pati ang veteran actress na si Caridad Sanchez biniktima.
Kaya naman mabilis ang action ng anak ni tita Caring, si AJ Babao sa distributor ng nasabing essential oil na binebenta ng almost P1,000 kung saan nakalagay pa rito na ramdam na ramdam daw ng batikang aktres ang epekto ng nasabing essential oil. Ini-emphasize pa sa nasabing ad na dahil daw dun ay bumabalik sa dati ang kanyang memorya.
“I am the lawful representative of Ms. Caridad Sanchez a well known actress. It has come to my attention that there was an attempt to use the name of Caridad Sanchez with a complete statement and photo in one of your advertorial posts regarding your product and services.
“I would like to emphasize that in no way did we allow your company to endorse such products and or services without prior consent.
“We would like to remind you about the following statements on your website that you have posted publicly (binanggit ang website).
“In which clearly is in blatant violation of the privacy act of the individual concerned by the name of Caridad Sanchez a well known retired actress in the Philippines in which you are bound by Philippine Laws and can be properly charged by the Department Trade and Industry and other government agencies for falsification of such public document.
“I would strongly advise you and your company to investigate this matter, cease and desist all attempts to illegally endorse such products and services online and offline using the name of Caridad Sanchez without official and legal consent or you will face proper criminal as well as legal action on your company.
“You may contact me for legal coordination on this matter,” ang buong statement ni AJ sa kumpanyang nagbebenta nito na ‘wag na nating banggitin.
Anyway, sa kabila ng edad ng veteran actress, nakakatakbo pa ito at nakaka-malling base sa video na pinadala ni AJ.
