PNP WARNS ONLINE BUYERS AS SUSPECT IN ₱304K CAMERA THEFT CASE IS ARRESTED

Under the leadership of Police General Jose Melencio C. Nartatez Jr., Chief of the Philippine National Police (PNP), authorities continue to strengthen efforts against property-related crimes, including the illegal sale of allegedly stolen items through online marketplaces.

A 22-year-old delivery rider was arrested on October 7, 2026, in Manila during an entrapment operation after allegedly offering stolen camera equipment worth approximately ₱304,000.00 for sale online.

The case stemmed from a report by the property owner, who recognized the missing cameras and lenses in an online listing and sought police assistance. Operatives arranged a meeting with the suspect, during which the equipment was presented and its identifying details were verified before the arrest.

The suspect is facing a complaint for alleged violation of Presidential Decree No. 1612, or the Anti-Fencing Law of 1979. The case is being processed for the appropriate legal proceedings.

The operation supports the PNP Focused Agenda, particularly Enhanced Managing Police Operations (EMPO), by reinforcing timely police response, evidence-based action, and coordination with the public in addressing reported crimes. It is also consistent with President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr.’s call for responsive and accountable public service.

Chief PNP PGen Nartatez reminded the public to exercise caution when purchasing high-value items online.

“Kapag bibili tayo online, huwag lang presyo ang tingnan. Check the seller, ask for proof of ownership, and be cautious when a deal seems too good to be true. Kung may kahina-hinalang item o transaction, i-report agad sa pulis. A little caution can help protect you from losing your money or unknowingly buying stolen property,” PGen Nartatez said.

The PNP encourages online buyers and sellers to keep transaction records, verify the identity and credibility of sellers, and report suspicious listings or offers to the proper authorities. Members of the public should avoid purchasing goods when ownership cannot be reasonably established and should not attempt to confront suspected offenders on their own.

Through sustained police operations and public cooperation, the PNP remains committed to protecting communities and promoting safer online transactions in line with Bagong PNP para sa Bagong Pilipinas: Serbisyong Mabilis, Tapat at Nararamdaman.
