Mariing itinanggi ni Zambales Board Member Carl Eric B. Rico ang pagkakadawit ng kanyang pangalan sa umano’y pagpapanggap sa katauhan ni Presidential Communications Office (PCO) Secretary Cesar Chavez at solicitation na kumakalat sa Facebook social networking site.
Nauna rito ay naglabas ng babala ang Kalihim sa kanyang personal FB account na nagsasaad ng “it has come to my attention that someone is impersonating me by using my name, photo, and a fake account to solicit financial assistance from my friends and colleagues. Please be aware that this is a scam! Do not engage with this account or provide any personal information. Thank you for your vigilance!”
Kalakip sa mensahe ni Chavez ang ilang screen shot conversation hinggil sa team building event ng SK Federation President ng Zambales at paghingi ng Php50,000 bilang kontribusyon para sa aktibidad.
Ayon kay BM Rico, isa umanong kasinungalingan ang sinasabing “Team Building” at wala din aniyang programang ganito ang SK Federation of Zambales.
“This alleged “Team Building” event is unequivocally FAKE NEWS. No such program was included in the SK Federation of Zambales’ activities for the previous year, nor is it listed in the future plans of the SK Federation of Zambales. Therefore, the claim that the SK Federation of Zambales conducted a “Team Building” on January 31, 2025 is entirely FALSE,” pagdidiin ni Rico.
Itinanggi din nito na wala aniya siyang bank account na “OWN BANK”.
“On behalf of the SK Federation of Zambales, we extend our sincerest apologies to Mr. Cesar Chavez for any confusion or harm caused by this unfortunate incident. We hereby clarify the veracity of these claims,” saad pa nito.
Kasalukuyan na din umanong nakikipag-ugnayan ang Office of the SK Provincial Federation President of Zambales kay Secretary Chavez upang linawin ang insidente.
