NAGBABALA sa publiko ang Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP) patungkol sa pekeng pera na kumakalat sa social media.
Ito ‘yung P150 bill na tampok ang pambansang bayani na si Dr. Jose Rizal.
Sa isang Facebook post, Iginiit ng BSP na wala pa silang inilalabas na bagong disenyong pera ngayong taon.
“The Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP) informs the public that it has not released a 150-Piso denomination banknote featuring Dr. Jose Rizal. Images of the said banknote circulating on social media are fictitious,” sey sa inilabas na pahayag.
Pinayuhan din nila ang publiko na laging suriin kung tunay ang mga impormasyong lumalabas online, lalo na pagdating sa pera.
“The public is advised to always check the legitimacy of information found on social media and other channels regarding Philippine banknotes and coins. To verify, visit the Notes and Coins section of the BSP’s official website www.bsp.gov.ph,” saad sa FB post.
Panawagan ng BSP, kaagad na i-report sakaling may makakakilala sa mga taong sangkot sa paggawa at pamimigay ng mga pekeng pera.
Lahad sa pahayag, “The central bank encourages the public to report persons involved in the manufacture and/or distribution of counterfeit Philippine currency to the BSP Payments and Currency Investigation Group at email address pcig@bsp.gov.ph or through telephone numbers +63-2-8988-4833 and +63-2-8926-5092.”
