“My credit card has just been hacked! May nag order ng P1M worth of food sa Food Panda in less than an hour. Ano yan, lauriat para sa buong barangay???” he noted.
In the comment section, the senator said: “The hacker managed to change my registered phone number so he got the OTPs (one-time PIN). He knew what he was doing. I just don’t know how he will eat a million worth of food.”
