I was expecting to receive a package from MR. BINGWEN DAVID WONG from UNITED KINGDOM and it was arrived on Monday 05-07-22 in Philippines Then, I have received a text from UPS DELIVERY SERVICE that I need to pay PHP 5,000 for the import duties, airport custom charges and SF for package and so I did send them the money. but now, they replied that they have scanned my package and found US Dollar's inside the package. they are requesting me for PHP10,000 Anti-terrorist certificate? is this real? should I need to follow them because I have already paid the shipment fee.

I would like to ask if UPS DELIVERY SERVICE is a legit cargo services? who will issue the anti terrorist certificate for us to complete the transaction? The import duties, airport custom charges and shipping fee of the package has already paid why do they require this certification?
