Whoscall launches 'Di Lahat Dinededma' campaign to empower Filipinos to avoid scams without missing important calls

Whoscall, an anti-scam mobile application developed by Gogolook, has launched a new campaign called “Di Lahat Dinededma” to empower Filipinos to make informed decisions about unfamiliar calls and messages. The campaign, created in partnership with advertising agency Gigil, highlights the challenge of distinguishing between potential scammers and legitimate callers such as recruiters, delivery riders, or healthcare providers.

By using Whoscall’s Caller ID feature, users can identify unknown callers and flag potential spam or scam numbers, allowing them to assess who may be trying to reach them before deciding to answer. The campaign emphasizes the importance of vigilance while remaining open to calls and messages that could lead to opportunities or essential services.

Despite a 21.84% decline in scam calls in 2025, scammers are increasingly using call-based schemes to impersonate banks and credit card issuers, underscoring the need for users to stay alert and verify sensitive requests directly with the organization concerned.
