At first, I was offered to pay for the tracking ID of my parcel (iphone 13 promax) which amounts to PHP 12,000 via Gcash. Without paying this amount my parcel can’t be permit to take off too at my homedoor step. I have sent the it to Name: Jenniger D. Gcash: 09268454182. This is because I was randomly selected as one of the lucky winners of Iphone 13pro through instagram then drop more information to their Whatsapp number.
Initially, they have requested me for the PHP 1,000

Dear Francis Ian Rosario,
Greetings!
Thank you for your request dated Jan 11, 2023 07:50:07 PM under Executive Order No. 2 (s. 2016) on Freedom of Information in the Executive Branch.
The AMLC, as the central anti-money laundering/counter-terrorism financing (AML/CTF) authority of the Philippines, primarily functions as a financial intelligence unit, money laundering/terrorism financing investigator and prosecutor, as well as an AML/CTF supervisor, in accordance with the Anti-Money Laundering Act of 2001, as amended, and its 2018 Implementing Rules and Regulations.
The AMLC has no mandate to verify websites for the purpose of recovering funds. Hence, we are not able to verify the websites identified in your inquiry.
Based on the information you provided, it appears that you may have been targeted by the fraudsters, whose modus is similar to "Prize Scam" where one gets a call, email, or letter about winning a sweepstakes, lottery, or prize and is asked to pay money to get the prize. You may report this incident to the Philippine National Police (PNP), or the National Bureau of Investigation (NBI), which could best act on your concern and conduct an investigation on said offense.
We hope we have been of assistance.
May we request you to fill-out our feedback form to enable the us to continuously improve their services: https://forms.office.com/pages/responsepage.aspx?id=b5DZDHVFMEWm-8r6KIAvF_bmwAET7W9KpjGjBkMmOf5UMFRaQzFFNlFOQlY1RVhOQVRFWjlCTktFRi4u
