MANILA – The Department of Foreign Affairs (DFA) on Tuesday warned the public against scammers targeting foreigners who want to enter the Philippines despite existing inbound travel restrictions.
"The Department of Foreign Affairs warns the public against any form of scam related to the entry of foreign nationals into the Philippines," it said in an advisory.
