hi! i also got a call from cocoplans agent daw. the address was valid so i thought “baka nga totoo ito”. i was supposed to claim it today, at this very minute, buti na lang OT kami today! they asked me kung meron akong identification na “VISA” or “MEGALINK”, sabi ko you mean credit card? *very suspicious” and sabi nya they refer to this as “identification cards”..

so it is true that they are giving grants, but if ur stupid enough your credit card will be swiped for something else??

yun ba ung modus?

yep, that’s what i read from others because like what i said i didn’t proceed to go there, u can read other stories on the net but i’m not sure if this cocoplans agent is the same with the prudential life scam issue.

hi karen! i, well became “stupid brave” enough to go to cocoplans last

night with my boyfriend on the side. i got the educational grant &

other blah for free, i paid absolutely nothing. after signing the need

to sign documents, the “woman-in-charge” offerred something else, sort

of time deposit & investment combined plan. this offer was to be paid

but with your CONSENT only. i did show my credit card. But if you guys

go there NEVER let them hold it or get it out of your sight and NEVER

go there alone.

i got home with the educ grant of datamex,insurance and all my money

in my hand…yehey! sana makatulong ung grant sa pinsan ko..hehe

p.s. Cocoplans po ito..

@ melody: gud 4 u girl, at least u have an idea on this scam so nging alert ka, sana may makapag share din for prudential life nmn so we’ll know if they are really giving grants para ma avail nmn nung may gus2 tlga

thanks…I also reciv a txt like that last Jan.20….I am planning to call them 2morow…But becoz of this info…. di masasayang lod ko….kasi nasa bicol pako… salamat ng marami….

i am one of those that came to their office because its only near to us.

yes they said you won a scholarship program and an insurance and i got it for free. i’ve paid zero.

but yes they offered me a program but its up to you if you will avail it.

its a marketing strategy to get client and not absolutely a scam.

you should have tried to get there and see it yourself if your really smart.

For me its not a scam, its a marketing strategy of Prudential Life, and the 2 years scholarship course is for real. here is the real story for that, i also recieved a text form them even call at the office from one of their staff. So i got confused, 1 day while am on my way out for the office, Manong guard told me that Prudential life has called me last saturady (that was tuesday morning then), i ask him whats the message, they just left the callback number, so since nothing will lose to me if am gonna call them back i called them and there’s a visayan accent lady who answered me. Same story as the blogger said. So i decided to go there at their office wednesday morning after office, then i found out that its just a marketing strategy, HOWEVER ITS NOT A SCAM. you would pay nothing for you to get the scholarship and a certain insurance valid for 1 year. Then theyre gonna offer you to get a trust fund WHICH IS AN OPTION IF YOU GONNA TAKE IT OR NOT!!! Regarding swiping your card, it would be impossible if you let them swap your card therefore they would swiped it! but if not ofcourse they cant..maybe the blogger was not aware of the different marketing strategies…ofcourse if they gonna tell you that they will be offering you a trust fund would you still go there? ofcurse you say its just a waste of time right?

OMG! i also received the same calls from prudential life- mom was smart and of course we didnt pay for any insurances (but they did insist on it) but i got the datamex scholarship. we actually went to their main building, but it’s cool. we didnt pay anything but we gained free scholarship. so.. is there a scam on scholarships? i was only after it because if the japanese tutorials (lol) by the way, thanks for sharing this!!

Same thing here, katulad din kay Melody. Pero hindi ko hinayaan yung credit card ko. Cocoplans din, 18th floor yun, sa may Rufino Tower…..”Trish” yung pangalan nung girl.

Erratum! Prudential Life doesnt offer such modus operandi..They’ve already existed for 161 years and they wont stoop that low since theyre very solid company …Its COCOPLAN! (under UCPB). My friend and I went there yesterday and got the same hoopla as you said.

Ms. Karen, Please correct your statement as Purdential may pursue you on this as this would be very damaging to the reputation of the company. Again, Prudential Life doesnt offer such grant!

i already been grant this scholarship voucher twice, kanina lang yung isa sa cocoplans.. actually before i go there i was already aware of their style, so when i get there alam ko na kung pano ang gagawin, i didnt let my credit card leave my hand at nung kinausap na ako at inalok ng inalok about sa trustfund nakipag gaguhan lang din ako dun sa kumakausap, until sya na ang nainis at pinaalis na ako with the scholarship certificate at free 50k medic certificate and my creditcard na walang bawas.

Yesterday I also received a call from a cocoplans agent informing me that I am one of the lucky recipients of the free insurance they are giving away as part of their 14th year anniversary. She said that it was ramdomly selected through referrals and only 170 people are selected. And for me to be able to claim it i need to present one company ID, one gov’t id and a credit card. A credit card for identification?? Sounds suspicious! I asked her why do i need to present a credit card when i have other IDs to prove my identity. She just told me that it is a requirement because govt IDs arent enough because there are lots of fake IDs now! So now credit card is the best identification that we can present?! Good thing i found this site…

Hi juday, just got the datamex certificate just this day @ makati prudential life, i’m afraid if this true for free tuition fee for two years, but they did not get my credit card even xerox it, i don’t know there will be no problem if we will avail this certificate please advise me before too late.

Hour ago recieved a call from MARK of Prudential life. he said my boss has won free scholarship of datamex school by electronic draw of their company. but it come up in my mind what Datamex school!? so i’ll search in google but sudently i saw the blog of KAREN about this scam. (Thanks karen)

and one, my office mate recieved a sms that she won a 950k in grand draw but she need first to deposit the account of the person who txted her for processinf fee..

Kaya wag kaung magpaloko guy’s there’s a lots of people around you who are scammers.. so BEWARE guy’s..

ako muntik nlng.. Buti nlng suspicios ako kaya when they asked me to present a credit card I gave them my overlimit card so that they wont be able to swipe anything..haha..
they gave me the scholarship for 2 years but I don’t if the scholarship is really existing…

Kawawa nmn yung school ng datamex which is sponsored by Vice Mayor Isko Moreno.

papaano natin malalaman kung ito ay isang scam? i jst got the schorlarship paper from prudential life at inooperan ako ng savings insurance, pro kumuha man o hindi makukuha pa din ang scholarship. nag-present ako ng co.ID, gov. ID and savings card w/c is kinuha ko muna ang lhat ng laman ng savings card ko bgo ko ito ipresent s kanila.

they called me also, today, but i know this is a scam because before it happened to me to claim a free one year insurance daw, so i came to their office to claim it, pero bago ibigay sa yo hihingin ang credit card mo, tapos hahawakan nila at ipapasok sa loob ng office, tapos pipilitin ka nilang mag-avail ng insurance nila at ng kung ano ano pang pagkakakitaan. yes it’s true they will give your the free vouchers and insurances pero, they will require you to present and hand them your existing credit card. ngaun kung nsa kamay na nila yon, alam mo ba kung nakuha nila ang card no. at ang verification na 3 digits at the back of the card (impt yon). pede nilang mgamit ng hindi natin alam ang account natin.

ADVISE LANG. PLEASE BEWARE OF GIVING THEM YOUR CREDIT CARDS. WAG NA WAG NINYONG PAPAHAWAKAN SA KANILA. YOU CANNOT LET THEM XEROX THE FRONT AND BACK OF THE CARD.

never trust your credit card … if you know the CVV or credit verification value…. even they are not swiping your cards.. once they get the last 5 digit of your credit card and the CVV no. they can access your credit card information

I think its not a scam just the other post… its just marketing strategy… kasi ang scam wala ka talagang makukuha diba… ako nagpunta ako dyan sa sinasabi nilang building kahilera ng jaguar showroom… then then show me the gift certificate ng datamex… kaso… nakakuha na ako ng prudential life.. life and burial yata un… hehehehe.. binayaran ko by swiping my card..heheh last year… kaya di ko na kinuha un… pero pilit sila ng pilit… so sabi ko hindi na talaga kasi nga naiswipe na rin… kaya… tinanggihan ko talaga wala sila nagawa kundi ibigay ang gift certificate kasi sabi nila may gift ako without saying na i have to buy anything from the begging of our conversation… so now i hope it help my officemate i mean the certificate i gave it to him for his son… hehehe nakatulong pa ko… tingin ko dyan hindi scholarship yun… its discounted only kita naman eh… hindi naman miscellaneous lang ang babayaran… parang tuition din kaso mas mababa pa sa orig price…

puta!!! wla na namn pasok langhiya tlga school 2 nag babayad namn kami ng tuition fee

Thanks for your blog. Last year may tumawag din sa akin regarding scholraship pero wala akong time para iavail. Pupunta na sana ako para sa gift certificate pero ewan ko bakit may humihila sa akin pabalik. Pero ngayon may tumatawag na naman regarding scholarship sa Datamex, free nga tuition fee pero kelangan mo magbayad ng misc. fee. I called Datamex and informed them that I am interested to enroll and ask for the misc fee. Its 4,000 to 6,000 misc depending on the course to take. Pero di ko na siguri itutuloy kasi parang natako narin ako dahil baka walang kwenta rin ang school na papasukan ko. Thanks for the blog.

To those who went to cocoplans and got the free stuff, is it valid? Have you guys used it in your respective schools?

I go this text now lang, and if totoo nga na free education scholarshiip edi yey. Pero nakakahiya naman, sa admu pa ako pumapasok, and itsg onna be a hassle if like mareject ito sa enrollment, ako lang ang mahahasel nun.

kakatext ko pa palang kanina dun sa taga cooplans daw, hindi ko na sasabihin ang name, and sabi ko by lunch time maka saglit, kase malapit lang naman eh. and same thing sa lahat ng sinabi niyo, 3 valid id’s including bank id. sabi ko anung bank id? atm? hindi daw, credit card? yun nga daw. sabi ko din, teka why are you giving this promo or something if you guys don’t get anything from us, sabi niya 14th year anniv. daw ng ccoplans and out of 5000 referals, isa daw ako sa 100 lucky chosen who won this 2 yr scholar certificate ng datamex and an accidental insurance, etc. buti na lang 7 pm pa out ko and nag try ako mag search sa net ng datamex for their contact# para dun ako mag inquire ng tuition fee nila… per ccoplans agent kc na naka usap ko this afternoon, all for free except misc. expenses, worth 4-5k. sabi ko okey na rin,, pero kung malalaman ko na ganun din nagre-range ang tuition fee nila, why should i spend time pa para pumunta sa kanila, kung parang halos wala na din naman palang difference di bah.. pero atleast nagkaroon ako ng idea regarding this scam or promo or marketing strategies. etc etc. what ever they call on this. magiging aware din ako sa credit card ko di ba. i’ll never let them inhand my card. thanks for all these ifo.

please dont go there anymore im also one of thier victim of the same grant…. they have swipped my card even i dont permit them.. dapat pag pumunta ka don you have a companion… to be honest i want to expose them to the media and it will depend on my dispute to cancel the transaction… i hope it can help you thru this comment.

nakareceive din ng text ang kapatid ko and given the nmbers 332-3536 / 332-3580, i tried calling it..nun unang ring ibinaba ko muna after rmembering na id better check it on the net first..dami ngbebenta ng datamex scholarship if u wud browse other sites..when i dialed the nmbrs agen, busy tone na for the rest of the day..

scam, scam, scam..napakahirap na talaga ng pilipinas..

kung di ka talaga mag-iingat, mabibiktima ka ng sarili mong kapabayaan..

hi
tnx for the info. i just received their msg.

nasa sa inyo if u avail or not. Just be cautious always. I got all their freebies but I did not avail their promotional offer.

kawawa naman ako… ngayon ko lang nabasa itong mga comments nyo… huhuhu… and i’m one of the “tanga” na sa-swipe yung card ko… ang sabi lang kasi nila ay try kong maaaprove yung amount… at ang bilis ng pangyayari bumalik sa akin yung card at pinapapirmahan na sa akin yung slip… Guys help me naman ko papaano ko ma-cancel kasi gipit ako ngayon… malulubog ako sa utang… I need help… please help me naman… Thnks…

i just received a txt msg. like this just now. after reading this page i didnt seem to be lucky at all like what they’ve said sa txt. It’s a waste of time.

THIS IS THE SAME MARKETING STRATEGY DONE BY SOME OF THE LOW RATED INSURANCE COMPANY..

Remember Family First Ins. at SM malls? They changed name to DANVIL and now Prudential Philippines Inc.. ay nako pare pareho lang ang mga insurance ngaun.. Malulugi na kce sila.

Kung gusto nyo ng matinong insurance never ever go with COCOLIFE/COCOPLANS, DANVIL, PRUDENTIAL LIFE

wow just got their txt msg this morning good thing i thought of consulting google first.. hehe.. thanks for the info guys.. but i’m just curious if the scholarship is for real? thanks

isa ako sa mga naka received ng tx kay Ms Malaya Navarosa…buti nlng ntawagan ko…kung anpo ano ang hinahanap sa akin at nag search din aq sa internet…wag kau maniniwala sa mga marereceived nio na message…lalo na kung un expected at wala kayong sinasalihang rafle…..ingat nlng sa maka2received ng txt oi search nio muna sa internet kung totoo

thanks for all your comments guys.kanina lang nakareceive ako ng telephone call ang sabi may hindi ako naclaim na gift.matagal na raw iyon dito sa butuan.sa cocoplan daw,naisip ko paano nila nakuha ang number ko at wala naman akong sinalihan?isa pa insurance agent ako sa philamlife insurance.hiningian ako ng 3 valid ids’.sabi ko ano lng sch.id,tin,at natasha.any government id?ask nang babae sa kabilang linya ng phone.sss or philhealth.sabi ko di pa na change ang maiden name ko.sabi naman ng caller kailangan talaga yun dahil may involve na money.wla naman akong babayaran doon.tapos nag-ask sa akin if i have any bank id like credit card or checkbook ang sabi ko wla.tapos sabi ng caller tatawag cya w/in 5 minutes kasi kukunin pa niya ang code number para maclaim ko ung grant o ano yung gift na sinabi nya.hindi na ako masyado nagtanong sa kanya dahil hindi pa ako tapos maligo.tinawag lang ako nang husband ko habang nagsasabon sa banyo at laging nasaisip ko na baka katulad din yun sa mga txt messages na nareceive ko na i won thousands or millions.kaya di ako naniwala dahil wla naman akong sinalihan.
It takes almost an hour.hindi pa tumawag muli cguro dahil alam niya na wla akong credit card.
Pero if ever totoo yon na may free cla na ibinigay bakit di ko tatanggapin?Pero sana yong Valid.libre naman pero cgurado wla silang makukuha sa akin dahil hindi ganyan ang strategy ng Philamlife insurance kung saan ako nag agent.at cigurado ako na matatag ang company namin at hindi ganyan ka desperado.

Para sa akin, importante na mayroong insurance ang bawat pamilya para in case of emergency mayroon kang madudukot o matatakbuhan.cguraduhin lng na matatag ang insurance company na iyong binilhan ng insurance or educational plan or whatever plans na magagamit mo in the future.Huwag nang iisipin na baka ipapatay ka o anu-ano pang kagaguhan na pumasok sa isip mo dahil mayroon kang insurance.kundi isipin mo nalang na kung may masamang mangyari sa yo o mawalan ka ng trabaho ready ka bang makikita mo ang pamilya mo na namumulubi kasi wlang ibang matatakbuhan?o ang mga anak mo na namulot nlang nang pagkain sa basurahan?
Why not think like the chinese and american.their government urge them each family to get insurance and educational plan sa kanilang mga supling.
Ngayon sa bansa natin SSS and philhealth is not enough.masyadong kulang.kaya dumami ang pulubi sa philippines.
Chinese ang kadalasan mga bigtime businessman dito sa philippines at cla rin ang may mataas na rates na kumuha ng mga insurance,pensions,and educ. plan sa philamlife.
di bale mag sacrafice cla magbayad ng premium w/in 3 to 5 years basta after that marami silang benefits na makukuha at di masasayang ang kanilang ibinayad.Lumago pa ang pera mo,insured ka pa,hindi kinunan ng tax tulad sa bank,magamit mo pa in case of emergencies.

So if ever may plano kayong kumuha ng insurance or somebody offered some promos.icheck muna if stable pa ang company.basta para sa akin na subok na matatag sa Philamlife Insurance.
Hindi sa paninira, baka ang kinukuhaan nyo ng educ plan tulad ng sa CAP noon na masyadong mabilis ang pagtaas at marami bumili sa kanilang plans dahil sa promises,mabilis din ang kanilang pagbagsak.

Basta, thanks for the info at least aware ako pag pumunta ako sa cocoplan if ever.kukunin ko lang ang gift ko pandagdag sa philam ko.:)

Wow this is a very helpful blog, just now i received a text message in my sun number, informing me that i won a free tuition fee in datamex school and i called the number and the girl was explaining that they are sister company with different companies that someone might have reffered my sun number, i was really doubtful because like only 7 people nows my sun number, she was asking me to claim it tomorrow since it will only be valid wihtin 2 days, that the plan is transferrable, told be to bring the 3 id’s and of course lke you guys mentioned it included the credit card, i told her i dont have credit card even if i do have and she said i can bring any friend who has so that i can claim the educational plan…and i was really doubtful so i googled and found this blog..and im grateful..btw their office add mentioned to me is at 18th flr Rufino Pacific and the name of the girl i spoke to is MARICEL and this is under COCO LIFE she mentioned…
Whatta’ terrible marketing strategy….

Hi,

Just want to thank you for your blog, buti naalng nabasa ko…kasi this morning may tumawag sa office na taga cocoplan at pinipilit na i claimed ko daw ang insurance priviledge ko for there anniversary. They also give me a claiming code MVS-072675-CCP a guarantee of no financila obligation daw. The girl name manel ask me to bring 2 id’s and a credit card for specimen signature.

Hehe Thanks mam,. kakatawag lan din sakin, kya search kagad ako for more info about datamex sayang kac un scholarship i could give it to my relative , buti nlan i read ur post,.. thanks a lot, i also find it very suspicious..

I just got a tx from COCOPLANS so I asked how I got the scholarship. He asked me to call for more details. After reading this blog, I think that this is a scam and a WASTE OF TIME. Glad I search first and found this blog. Thank u guys!

“THERE’S NO SUCH FREE LUNCH”

Gud day mam sir tinawagan din po ako ng cocoplan and they gave me an free Insurance without any obligation basta renew ko lang daw yearly and transferable daw po ito sa mga relative kung ayaw i-avail basta may mag rerenew lang, then they also gave me DATAMEX scholarship Certificate entitles free tuition fee on any two year computer courses from DATAMEX institute of computer technology, Then they offer me an insurance called Specialized Savings first they offer me an 50k initial, then 39k, then 20k, and finally 5k initial this Specialized Savings covers:

* In case of natural death, 100% of the IPV (during paying period) and 200% of the IPV (after paying period) will be added to the Memorial Service Benefit (MSB);
* Cash assistance equal to the IPV in case of accidental death;
* Total and permanent disability benefit applied to outstanding balance;
* Free Professional Service Administration.
* Optional: Provides comprehensive in-hospital benefit in case the planholder is rushed to the hospital

I told them Im planning to avail this Specialized Saving on Monday Oct 26, 2009

But after reading this blog hindi nalang kaya it looks like scam nga itong mga inooffer nila i hope nakatulong ako sa mga magbabasa sa blog na ito.

Thanks blogger

Mr. Fernan Sunga represents your company Cocoplans, Inc. and according to him, this promo is part of your company annual celebration.

Are you aware of this or are they using your company for this kind of trick or strategy..It is hard to believe…in the first place, how did they get my number? and when I called, they ask my name and address but I refused to tell..why? because If I was really selected to be the winner of that prize/reward how come they did not know my name.. For COCOPLANS INC. this is for your information. Thank you.

sana po ma post ung comments ko thank you

thanks to you guys!

I’m from Cebu and I just got this home call just a while ago from an agent–seems Prudential and informed me as a recipient of a scholarship at Datamex. I was suspecting so I search the net, Luckily, I had googled & stumbled this blogs. They have an office at room 308 Keppel Tower Cebu Business Park near Ayala Mall. Their contact no is 4126352. I’m astonished that they now operate in Cebu! I wondered where they got my home landline number?

Beware!

Good day po!!

I just got interested to this blog. I was a student of Datamex also from Sucat Branch. About the scam of Prudential Life half true. They use it as a business strategy i accidentally applied on their company. Maloloka kayo parang sapilitan ung process nila. Magagaling sila mag sales talk. But before ka makapasok as Prudential staff you need to sell 1 plan sa kakilala mo(1 of the requirement to have the position). Nagulat talaga ko sa strategy nila but thanks God hindi ako natuloy (sa Makati yung office nila).

Much better not to go there pagtinawagan or pagnatext nila kayo. If you really wanted to apply for the scholarship inquire directly to there main office or call them, here is the number to help you 5517370/ 5517145.

About the last blog, about the concerned former Datamex Students i was a bit offended when he/ she said na hindi niya maipagmalaki ang DATAMEX base on what happened to him/her. Wag mo naman lahatin. For me i’m proud that i graduated at DATAMEX (Sucat Branch) batch 2008. My sister also graduated at the same institute batch 2009 and my other sister is also previously studying at DATAMEX in Muntinlupa branch. But as i can see my sisters and i learned a lot. Depende lang siguro sa branch na pinasukan mo and depende na rin sa studyante if she/ he wants to learn(hindi lahat ng kelangan matutunan eh nasa loob ng paaralan!!!).

Siguro the branch of school that you’ve attended did not explain to you about your expenses (Miscellaneous fee+Terminal Fee). Kung hindi mo pala alam ang expenses anong ginagawa ng registrar niyo? Ask them para maintindihan mo.

As far as i know the certificate/ voucher ng DATAMEX is not for sale. Pagganitong insidente ang nangyari sa inyo tawag kayo sa DATAMEX/ institute na concern. Kasi last time my nahuli na scammers ng certificate ng DATAMEX if i am not mistaken it was 2008.

I hope you will post my comment. Thank you Ms. Karen =)

If you’re really interested to get a scholarship to DATAMEX just call the main office 5517145-5517370.

Yung mga nagsell ng mga scholarship voucher na yan are fake…/ scammers…..Walang bayad ang DATAMEX scholarship as far as i know….

maraming mananamantala ng pagkakataon, ginagamit nila ang scholarship ng datamex…
scholarships are NOT 4 SALE…
i have a “gift of knowledge” certificate from datamex.
sa Php500 upon enrollment and per term and 150 para sa ID,
napaka gaan nun para sa katulad ko…
except sa Php1000 na uniform, ok lang mahal yng burda eh.
practicality lang po, hindi lahat ng tao kayang magbayad ng mahigit sa 10,000 pesos na tuition fee per sem

this is true, just turned them down today, this lady keeps on calling telling me to get a free scholarship, someone should put a stop to their
hard selling,

Actually, It’s not really a scam, marketing strategy nila yun to attract people na magreport sa office nila and offer a plan or investment. Kung madadala ka sa sweet talk nila, papaswipe mo credit card mo, i think 7k yun.. Eh, ako nakareciv rin, interesado ako kz, pang aral ng kapatid ko, so ngpunta ako, dala ang decline ko na credit card, kase my idea na ko, y nila need nun.. so umuwi ako na dala yung 2-yr cert of free tuition fee and accident insurance na wala clang nakuha from me.. heheh… u win/they lost or they win/u lost lang nmn un, eh.. it’s up 2 u, wt pipiliin mo…

First, I don’t think its Prudential Life, but PHILIPPINE Prudential Life, who’s doing this. I know because I just visited their office at Unit 2201 Raffles Corporate Center, Emerald Ave., Ortigas Center.

PHILIPPINE Prudential Life Insurance is DIFFERENT from Prudential Life. Mas respetado at me pangalan yung huli kesa sa una.

Another thing, yes, they took my credit card but gave it back naman. I have no knowledge if they swiped it. How do you know if your card was swiped?

Also, confirmed. Yung pagbenta ng insurance ay side issue at come on lang ang scholarship voucher. The scholarship vouchers are “hooks” for them to get you interested to come to their office so they can sell to you their insurance products. Fortunately, I did not bite and took the shoclarship vouchers.

Iche-check ko pa within the week if these will be honored by DATAMEX Sucat.

i experienced the same thing wid u guys.I almost submit all the requred ids just to get the scholarship.only to find out it was scam.Good thing I brought my friends wid me,it was my friend who advised me that if I give my bank id or bank account whatever they will automatically deduct money from the account.and i discoverd later that Datamex churva give the scholarship for free.

dapat yan nilalakad sa imbestigador e

hello po. comment lang po. lahat naman po ng inooffer ng mga company na nabangit eh totoo. ang problema yung hard selling na ginagawa ng mga agents. sa sobrang gusto nilang makabenta…madami silang ipa promise na hindi alam ng company. ang gawin nyo..kunin nyo yung free…wag kayong mag swipe ng card and then umalis kayo. kasi bago din po sana kayo mag swipe nabasa at naintindihan nyo yung pinipirmahan nyo. yun lang po.

wow!!!! buti ngsearch ako about this Philippine prudential. my schedule ako ngayon sa kanila july 06,2010. iba yta yung style na ginamit sa kin, hindi sa SM.

tumawag sa bahay. they told me that a friend of mine gave my mobile number and landline to them. i really dont recall giving my landline number to my friends.they told me na sasabihin nila kung sino ngbigay nung number once na ngpunta ako. so no pansin ko na kung pano nila nakuha yung number ko. they told me that i will have 3 premium packages. including a scholarship with DATAMEX. they were also asking me some IDs including credit cards and atm. makakasali daw ako sa raffle if i presented a credit card and could possibbly win 50k.

thanks for the post MUNTIK NA KO!!!!
