Following the previous exposure of a list of 8427 POGO employees' ALO names, another new ALO list has surfaced. This second list involves the personal information of 3678 POGO employees, and its leakage undoubtedly adds fuel to the fire of the previous incident, triggering widespread attention once again.
After comparing the documents, it was found that these two ALO lists were listed at the same time, and these two lists, which should have been confidential, were successively leaked online, causing the public to question the Philippine government's loopholes in information security management.
As netizens joked, it seems that the Philippine government is issuing a threat in this way: POGO employees who do not leave the Philippines on time will have nowhere to go. And today, it just happens to be the last deadline for all POGO operations to cease.
The leakage of the second ALO list also exposes the detailed personal information of these foreign POGO employees working in the Philippines, including names, gender, date of birth, passport numbers, and nationalities, etc.
The list includes a large number of employees from countries such as China, Vietnam, and India. The exposure of this information not only poses a great risk to these employees' personal privacy but may also affect their future life, work, and even safety.
Like the first leakage incident, the leakage of the second list poses even more severe challenges for these employees.
Especially for citizens from China, Vietnam, and other countries, they may be investigated by their governments or forced to return to their countries due to their experience working in the POGO industry.
This massive data breach not only causes anxiety for the victims but also significantly undermines the trust in the Philippine government's management, especially in handling sensitive data.
Regarding the last information leak, the relevant departments of the Philippine government did not make any official response. However, it is foreseeable that this incident will bring long-term negative impacts to the Philippine gambling industry, especially in terms of the trust level of investors and foreign employees towards the country.
This ALO list scandal, affecting thousands of people, continues to unfold. According to the official statement of the Philippine government, if they cannot leave by December 31, they will all be listed on the BLO blacklist, hence becoming illegal overstayers, and facing arrest and legal prosecution at any time.
Here, we remind the practitioners still staying in the Philippines on the list, from both news reports and official actions, it is clear that the Philippine government has a thorough cleanup attitude towards the online gambling industry. Do not harbor any luck to avoid causing more trouble!
