The Department of Human Settlements and Urban Development (DHSUD) has issued an important warning.
Scammers are using the Pambansang Pabahay Para sa Pilipino (4PH) program to deceive the public.
These fraudsters are targeting overseas Filipino workers (OFWs) by offering them fake investment opportunities.
DHSUD Secretary Jose Rizalino Acuzar made it clear that the department does not accept investments for 4PH projects.
He emphasized that no authorized personnel or office is involved in this type of transaction.
“These are false claims,” Acuzar stated firmly. “It’s either fake news or a scam.”
The 4PH program aims to provide affordable housing for Filipino families, especially those in need.
It was launched in 2022 and continues to be a top priority for the government.
Secretary Acuzar explained that the public should not fall for these fraudulent schemes.
He advised that any individual or group offering investments in 4PH should be reported immediately.
All reports will be handled with confidentiality and urgency.
The 4PH program’s purpose is to give Filipino workers the opportunity to own affordable homes.
Acuzar made it clear that those looking to participate in the program should reach out only to DHSUD or local government units (LGUs).
These government entities are the official channels for inquiries.
The 4PH program offers various subsidies to help Filipino workers who are members of the Pag-IBIG Fund.
It seeks to lower monthly payments and provide better housing solutions for workers across the country.
The department continues to monitor the situation closely and urges the public to remain vigilant.
Secretary Acuzar is committed to upholding the integrity of the 4PH program.
This warning serves as a reminder for everyone to be cautious when dealing with unsolicited offers.
Acuzar also stressed that no office or representative of the DHSUD is authorized to solicit funds for 4PH projects.
If you come across any suspicious activity, don’t hesitate to report it to the authorities.
By doing so, you help protect the integrity of the 4PH program and prevent others from being victimized.
The department remains steadfast in its commitment to providing affordable homes for all Filipinos.
The goal of the 4PH program is to address the housing needs of low-income families nationwide.
Over the next several years, the government plans to build millions of homes for Filipino workers and their families.
For updates or concerns, the public can visit the DHSUD website or contact their local LGUs.
The government is working hard to make homeownership a reality for many.
By working together, we can ensure the success of the 4PH program and protect Filipino families from exploitation.
If you encounter any fraudulent activities, make sure to report them to the proper authorities immediately.
This is a collective effort to secure a brighter future for every Filipino family.
