Whoscall is a TrustTech app developed by Gogolook, designed to protect mobile users online with features like SMS/call identification, a URL scanner, detection of identity leakage and the ability to report suspicious scam numbers and URLs, which are then added to its international database.

TrueMoney President and Country Managing Director Manuel Cabañero emphasized that Gogolook offers additional tools to help Filipinos combat scams and stay informed about scam-related threats, particularly targeting users on this digital ecosystem.

“The partnership between TrueMoney and Gogolook strengthens our efforts to educate more Filipinos on securing their financial transactions, especially with TrueMoney’s nationwide presence. This collaboration allows us to raise awareness within our ecosystem and equip our partners and customers with the knowledge and tools to fight scams,” Cabañero said .

TrueMoney Philippines offers various financial services to customers through its partner retailers, mostly sari-sari stores nationwide. The local company is an expansion in the country by the Thailand-headquartered fintech brand. Branded as offering “affordable” financial services for all, TrueMoney users are set to benefit the most from this partnership.

 Migriño further noted that the main goal of the collaboration is to improve the cyber hygiene of digital users, especially those using e-money.

“This partnership aims to jointly promote campaigns against scams, including Gogolook’s ‘Fight for a Scam-Free Pilipinas’ initiative,” Migriño said.
