Globe Telco and Gcash launch the next-generation verification scheme to fight Cyber fraud

In the latest news from Manila Bulletin published on December 16, 2025, Globe Telecom Inc. and GCash are rolling out a new technology designed to secure user identities without the need for manual inputs or one-time passwords (OTPs).

Traditionally, fraudsters trick users into revealing their OTPs through fake messages or websites to gain unaut...
