Cellphone number 0919-304-6807 sent me an SMS with a screenshot above, telling me that my SIM was choosen to be the 3rd lucky winner of V-Pres Charity Foundation worth 480,000 as of 9/25/2006 per DTI Permit #2578. And to claim the prize, I was told to call Atty. Rex A. Villar.
And yes, I called him up. He then told me to send him my fullname and full address to verify my identity with the cellphone number.
However, even if I want to know the real motive behind this, I stopped taking any steps for it will only use-up my time. I know this is just one of the mobile scams.

Good Day!
I, too, got a message and this was:
“Congratulations!! Ur Sim# had won P480.000 from V-Press CHARITY FUND.Electronic Rffle Draw.4 more info!Call me now Atty;Rico A.Lopez DTI#8904 Series/2008 from 09262737808 at 01:40:58 pm 07-03-2008″
This was the exact message that I received from anomalous person. I do replying him, but thru text only, but he did not reply at all. Then, I do research this company, then I found out this blogs. Buti na lang and I saw this website and at least I avoid this swindle.
Hope the telecommunications company as well as government agency/ies will have action for this or block those numbers that we posted here. Marami silang nape-perwisyo!!!!!
To those who received this kind of message, kindly spread out this fake message and make a public warning so that the public will be aware for this type of swindle.

I hope these people who wish to feed on the innocent minds may be put behind bars or feed them to crocodiles.

Notice From: D’Auditors of the PGMA.Charity Foundation inform u dat ur Cp no# Won Php.950.000 last 03/07/08 Pls!Call me n0w IM ATTY.VENUS A.AYALA
From:
+639296481531
This is also similar to what u’ve had received of their deceitful message sent to my cp. I don’t know how they able to get my number but i’m certain that the person who sent u such message similar to mine belongs to a group. How I wish the police and commission on information and communications technology (citc) or national telecommunication commission find a way to close-in this sim number currently activated on a cp, perhaps a kind of GPS that would be able to target a sim number on a location.
If this happen to you please spam the ntc, the citc so that they may know that such activity is so rampant and hope they may do some kind of action of about this.
These perpetrators will not stop until someone will voice out.
