Teenager, Nearly Blinded When A Mobile Phone Exploded on His Face

Warnings are done to prevent us from danger. Sometimes people ignore warnings and go on with their ways acting like they are smarter than anyone. Sometimes people tend to learn and feel regret when they are already hurt instead of taking warning and advice for their own good.
A teenage guy from Odiongan, Romblon had learned his lesson the hard way when he nearly got blinded when the battery of his smartphone exploded on his face while he attempted to remove the battery while it is charging. "Totoy", real name withheld, said that he was thinking that he will go blind for the rest of his life due to the damage of the blast inflicted by the charging mobile phone on his face and eyes. According to Totoy, while his phone was charging, he opened the back of the phone and attempted to remove the battery. That's when it suddenly burst out and the powdery substance from the battery went inside his eyes. He immediately flushed his eyes with water and when he could not open his eyes anymore, he cried for help and he was rushed to the hospital by his family. His grandpa said that he heard the explosion followed by the cry of his grandson begging them to bring him to the hospital In fear that he got blinded. According to expert, the battery which mobile phones are using known as lithium-ion batteries which are efficient for mobile devices are highly pressurized and are prone to exploding especially when punctured especially during charging. Experts warn people to avoid using the phone while on charge and never lave it under your pillow especially when charging. They also remind the mobile phone users to refrain from using faulty wall sockets. Using substandard accessories especially the charging cable and charging blocks to avoid putting your life and property in danger. Heed warnings and precautions for your own safety and the people around you as well. Spread the word!

In an advisory, the POEA said the Department of Health (DOH) has denied claims that it approved the scheme that requires the applicant to pay a registration fee of $10 for the provision of Pre-Employment Medical Examination. The DOH prohibits the Medical Facilities for Overseas Workers and Seafarers (MFOWS) from participating or using the said online scheme. In Department Circular No. 0371 issued on December 22, 2017, the DOH said that "since the online registration system charges an additional fee to the OFW applicants and can be restrictive to few selected DOH-accredited OFW clinics, it may be construed as another form of decking and monopoly of health examination services for Filipino migrant workers". The department Circular reads: It has come to the attention of the Department of Health (DOH) that a new online registration system that requires the OFW applicant to pay a registration fee of US$10 is being used by some Medical Facilities for Overseas Workers and Seafarers (MFOWS) for the provision of Pre-Employment Medical Examination (PEME). This scheme was allegedly authorized by DOH. DOH upholds the provisions stipulated in the Republic Act No. 10022, titled, “An Act Amending Republic Act No. 8042, Otherwise Known as the Migrant Workers and Overseas Filipinos Act of 1995, As Amended, Further Improving the Standard of Protection and Promotion of the Welfare of Migrant Workers, Their Families and Overseas Filipinos in Distress, and for Other Purposes” and Joint Memorandum Circulars of DOH, Department of Foreign Affairs, Department of Labor and Employment, and Department of Justice regarding the prohibition of decking, monopoly and charging of additional fees by OFW clinics. Since the said online registration system charges additional fee to the OFW applicants and can be restrictive to few selected DOH-accredited OFW Clinics, it may be construed as another form of decking and monopoly of health examination services for Filipino migrant workers. Thus, DOH prohibits the MFOWS from participating or using the said online scheme. The public, as well as, the MFOWS, are hereby advised to exercise caution and report to DOH activities pertaining to the online registration system for PEME. Please be guided accordingly.

UK Labor Attache Warns of FAKE UK Jobs - and Here's How to Spot Them

The Head of the Philippine Overseas Labor Office in London Reydeluz D. Conferido is warning the public about another fake UK-based company posting bogus job orders. Based on his experience in dealing with such unscrupulous scammers, the Labor Attache believes that the people behind the scam are based in Africa or Eastern Europe. They are apparently offering jobs that the UK Government has deemed exclusive for European Union (EU) and European Economic Area (EEA) citizens only. Another obvious sign that the job postings are fake is that the salaries being offered for some of the skilled labor jobs are higher than that of nurses - an obvious fake. The fake company named "Wilber & Co. Construction Limited" sent the fake job orders to several recruitment agencies in the Philippines in an attempt to dupe people in thinking that they are legitimate. Labor Attache Conferido also warned of a job offer letter for nanny or domestic workers for the UK and is asking for the payment of fees. The electronic letters even contain the logos and names of the Philippine and British Embassies to make it appear legal. The offer includes the promise of a ready employer and a "contract." However, the letter is also asking for payment via money transfer. They even included two names as recipients. Conferido says these job offers has scam written all over it. See the letter below: The appearance of fake job offers have been a huge problem as these scammers have taken advantage of wider social media access and the ease of hiding behind fake e-mail and social media accounts. The rapid improvement in technology also allows scammers to forge fake documents such as the ones shown below: A fake receipt being presented as proof of authenticity of a job order. Notice the fake logo. Also, why is the receipt from DOLE, but the transaction in with the Philippine Embassy in London. Real receipts should also be machine validatedNotice too the cost of verification. GBP 720, whereas the real cost of authentication is only GBP 23, add GBP 10 for expedited service. A fake document showing apparent "proof" of verification of authenticity. While the gold dry seal looks OK, however, you can see that the blue stamp is clearly fake. Compare it with the one from the Philippine Embassy in Riyadh. It is also curious that the "red ribbon" is attached to the document itself. In a real certificate of authenticity, all the pages are bound together with a paper rivet and the gold seal and red ribbon are placed on a cover - the certificate of authenticity. The stamp is placed with the signature of the authenticating officer as well as the paper rivet (if there is no red ribbon). See real samples below: But the modus of fake hiring agencies are not limited to online. Even in the streets if Metro Manila, fake hiring agencies abound, scamming people who unfortunately pass by. See the modus operandi in the video below. Fake job scam is one of the worst kind of scams since the most common victims are those that are actually without work and have only borrowed money just to pay for placement and other fees required for landing a job. Here are some tips for you to spot a fake job offer online: Fake jobs are usually offered online. But not all online job postings are fake. E-mail offers are the most common way of spreading fake jobs, but social media is becoming common too. Fake online jobs will use "real" information that are usually publicly available like names of real employment agencies names of real people associated with the government, or with employment agencies address of recruitment agencies and government labor offices names of real companies that apparently are hiring Fake jobs are not published or listed with the POEA. You can always verify information through the POEA website. You can also verify the authenticity of a job order by checking with a local recruitment agency listed in the offer. If a job offer focuses on payment or comes asking for money up front - especially via money transfer, it is usually a scam. If a job is offering an unusually large salary than other similar jobs, it may be fake. If a job offer contains errors in grammar or spelling, or lacks details about the job itself, it is likely a scam. A job offer that uses logos of government agencies, it is likely a scam. Government to government hiring is only posted via the POEA. Jobs that appear to be from agencies or government offices but use personal e-mail addresses are usually fake. Bigger companies have corporate emails - instead of gmail, yahoo or other personal mail services. source: Business Mirror, PNA
