Hi,
I recently fell victim to a franchise business scam, not just only me, but many of us (legitimate investors). The company operated for almost a year and this year Dec 2024. I am new investor here & i invested almost Php2 Million in the company. And we believe, we have been scammed, because the owner is not contactable on his mobile phone and fb messenger, & his FB account was already deactivated, their main office was already close, employees were laid off on their work, and the owner was not seen as well on his rented apartment. We have contracts & issued PDC's cheques, and other evidences as well.
