The PHP1 million was in cash and the others were through bank transfer,” Austria said. “In November 18, 2017, I was swindled by PHP8.3 million. The group was called gawgaw budol-budol gang for using starch to fool their victims like in the case of Leonardo Austria, 62, a resort owner in Balanga City. “My advice is to know first if the products are legitimate and to determine if the agent or supplier who is offering the products is legitimate too,” he said. There are some PHP50 million they already swindled from the victims who reported and it might even be higher as there are still some who are not yet reporting,” Mejia said. “The operation of the gawgaw budol-budol gang is nationwide. He showed pictures of Laugan as a male and dressed as a woman. “The true identities of the suspects are gay but pretended as men when they approached those whom they are going to victimize,” the investigator said. The five others are still at-large and the subject of manhunt.
