週四早些時候，菲律賓警方突襲了帕拉納克市一處疑似加密貨幣詐騙中心，逮捕了 400 多名參與網路詐欺活動的工人。

The Philippine National Police Anti-Cybercrime Group (PNP-ACG) conducted the operation at a building in Barangay Don Bosco following a two-month surveillance, according to a report by GMA News Online.

根據 GMA 新聞線上報道，菲律賓國家警察反網路犯罪小組 (PNP-ACG) 在經過兩個月的監視後，在 Don Bosco 描籠涯的一棟建築內開展了這項行動。

Authorities said the hub was engaged in “crypto-related scams, online investment scams, and other fraudulent activities.”

當局表示，該中心從事「與加密貨幣相關的詐騙、線上投資詐騙和其他詐欺活動」。

The workers, who were mostly Chinese nationals, were allegedly found operating computers and laptops that contained evidence of the scams, the report added.

報導補充說，這些工人大多是中國公民，據稱他們被發現操作含有詐騙證據的電腦和筆記型電腦。

The suspects now face charges for violating Republic Act 10175, or the Cybercrime Prevention Act of 2012.

嫌疑人目前面臨違反第 10175 號共和國法案（即 2012 年網路犯罪預防法案）的指控。

Meanwhile, the Department of Justice is set to file a case against an official of the Philippine Economic Zone Authority (PEZA) over the alleged operation of Philippine Offshore Gaming Operators (POGOs) in residential areas, GMA News reported separately.

同時，根據 GMA News 另報道，司法部將對菲律賓經濟區管理局 (PEZA) 一名官員提起訴訟，指控其涉嫌在住宅區經營菲律賓離岸博彩營運商 (POGO)。

Justice Undersecretary Emmeline Aglipay-Villar said the official will be charged for violation of Presidential Decree 1096, which prohibits the operation of gambling dens.

司法部副部長 Emmeline Aglipay-Villar 表示，該官員將因違反禁止賭博場所經營的第 1096 號總統令而受到指控。

She added that the official will also face charges for violation of Republic Act 11211, or the East ASEAN Growth Area Law, which mandates PEZA to coordinate with local government units in the establishment of economic zones.

她補充說，該官員還將面臨違反第 11211 號共和國法或《東東協增長區法》的指控，該法要求菲律賓經濟區管理局與地方政府單位協調建立經濟區。

The official’s name was not disclosed in the report.

報告中並未透露該官員的姓名。

Earlier this year, the Philippine government ordered the closure of all remaining POGOs in the country following reports of kidnapping, illegal gambling, and other criminal activities linked to the offshore gaming industry.

今年早些時候，菲律賓政府下令關閉該國所有剩餘的網路博彩公司，因為有報告指出存在與離岸博彩業有關的綁架、非法賭博和其他犯罪活動。
