Jeepney riders in Las Pinas, be careful of this modus operandi

Alabang Bulletin got wind of another modus operandi from Facebook.

For security reasons, we will not reveal the name of the victim or of the one who posted the incident.

For commuters passing by Las Pinas, please see her story below:

Kanina around 7:30am nag aabang ako jeep sa may northgate (near skyway entrance) may tumigil na jeep byahe alabang-zapote na parang isa nalang ang kulang. Habang pasakay ako may sumenyas agad sakin na mama sabi nya may space pa daw dun, so ginawa ko umupo ako dun sa tinuro nya then binuklat ko yung wallet ko para mag bayad eh andun din un cellphone ko.

Sa may banda westgate bigla sinabi sakin nun mama (katapat ko ng pwesto) na may dumi daw ako sa damit so ako naman tiningnan ko sabi ko “ok lang yan” since kakabasa ko lang ng mga posts about budol-budol naisip ko agad na baka ganito un, pero un mama keep on telling me na may bata daw na naglagay (naisip ko wala naman ako kasabay mag abang ng jeep) so dedma padin ako.

Tapos un katabi ko na mukang kasabwat nya ang nag over react na natalsikan din sya. Tapos may mga nagaabot sakin ng tissue. To make it short gusto nila ako magpanic. Sorry nalang mas matalino ako sa kanila haha. Hindi ko lang alam kung ako ang ginawang props para makanakaw sila sa ibang pasahero since sila yung aligaga. Sunond sunod na nagbabaan yung tatlong halimaw sa may town center. Sabay sabi ng driver “budol budol yun” sabi ko “bakit di ka man lang nagreact” ang sagot sakin “madami kasi sila di ako sure, bago yang mga yan”.

Pinost ko to para maging aware yung mga tao na nag cocomute kasi yung ibang kasabay ko sa jeep wala silang kaalam alam sa ngyari kinina na ganun pala ang strategy ng BUDOL BUDOL.

Hindi ko alam kung ano yang inilagay sa damit ko. Hindi sya mabaho pero parang kakaiba sya parang nangangapal yung balat ko.

You read her story.

Good thing she was aware of this style or she would have been another victim of these desperate criminals.

Good thing too they did not hurt her or any of the other passengers.

It is best to be aware of things like these so we know how to react when we become a target.

We would like to thank the person who posted this for sharing her experience so people will know what to do when this happens to them.

    Since the story happened at the business district of Alabang, the local government of Alabang should be alerted so that they can have police visibility in the area of West Gate and Alabang Town Center, their route is this area since there is no traffic and it will be easy for them to escape. I also don’t recall seeing police officers along or between this area. The target are call center agents who are tired from work and are eager to go home especially on a payday. Please help them have a safe working environment in the city where their tax is being collected.
