PHILIPPINE Airlines (PAL) is urging the public to be aware of scams falsely using the airline's name in relation to alleged cargo shipments, reports the Manila Bulletin.
In an advisory, the airline warned that scammers have reportedly been sending messages through Facebook or Messenger demanding payments for supposed shipments carried on a pal flight.
It added that fake versions of PAL's cargo airways logo has been use as 'proof' of the shipments.
'These are totally bogus. No such cargo shipments exist, and any related online payments will surely go to fraudsters,' said PAL.
'Please deal only with our legitimate cargo agents and shippers for any air cargo transactions,' it added.
For any announcements on cargo shipments, PAL said they will be issued only through official sources such as Cargo Sales Bulletins emailed to their accredited or non-accredited agents and shippers; and the official emails from their account executives.
