“CBCP Official” fake FB Page

 Circular No. 20-25
April 30, 2020

To All Bishops and Diocesan Administrators Your Excellencies & Reverend Administrators,

 This is to bring to your attention a fake Facebook (FB) page “CBCP Official” now in circulation. We would like to share with you an advisory on how to address this concern. There are two ways to stop this:

1. Do a mass report to FB. If we can gather about a hundred people, or more, reporting this to FB, FB will take it down. We have attached below a simple instruction how to do this. Your social media staff may be instructed to report this fake page.

2. We report this to NBI’s cyber crime division. But it will take long, especially at this time.

Moreover, Your Excellencies are respectfully asked NOT to post a notification or statement about this fake FB page. That will trigger attention and curiosity, consequently draw more people to that page.

Thank you. Stay well and keep safe.

Sincerely yours,
Fr. Marvin S. Mejia
Secretary General, CBCP
