00:00This is the only hot news about people using fake PWD IDs to get a discount on paying taxes or to be fooled.
00:12According to some reports, the loss of income due to the use of fake WD IDs will reach P82.2 billion.
00:23The Bureau of Internal Revenue or BIR is now warning the people who use fake IDs.
00:30That's true, Meiji. According to the BIR, they will conduct a nationwide crackdown for that.
00:37As you know, car SPs, the use of fake IDs is a serious matter and a violation of the law.
00:46For us to better understand what the punishment is, we will interview Atty. Faye Izaguirre-Singson. Good morning, Atty.
00:57Good morning, Atty.
00:59Good morning to the rising sun team.
01:03Good morning, Atty.
01:05Good morning.
01:05First thing first, Atty., what is the law that prohibits the use of fake IDs of senior citizens and PWDs for benefits?
01:16Yes, this is a criminal case. We also call it an escape.
01:23Under Revised Criminal Code Article 315-2A, this is the use of a suspicious name or if you are saying that you are qualified for another thing.
01:38In a nutshell, the purpose of an escape is to deceive people so that you use fake names to deceive people.
01:50That is the purpose of an escape. That's why you mentioned that there's a fluctuating rate for discounts. It's a criminal offense.
01:59Let's be clear, Atty. What is the percentage of discount for PWDs and senior citizens?
02:09As far as I know, this is 20% because I am not a PWD and I am not a senior citizen, so I am not using it.
02:19But the people who are saying that they are qualified to get PWDs and senior citizens discounts, they are entitled to 20%.
02:29You can see that on the back of the ID, there are specifications on how you can qualify for the discounts.
02:38Atty, you mentioned that there are people who fake their identity and there are also people who fake their diseases or so-called disorders to get a PWD card.
02:55In restaurants, I also noticed that there are no fake PWDs IDs.
03:00This time, there are a lot of fake IDs.
03:06Atty, what are the possible legal penalties for people who use fake PWDs or senior citizens to get discounts?
03:17There is no minimum amount for a person who uses a fake ID to be fined.
03:26Regardless of the amount, it is a criminal offense.
03:31So the penalty for imprisonment depends on the amount used to get a discount.
03:43It could be months, it could be weeks, but it could also be years.
03:50So it depends on the amount used to get a discount.
03:53This is a serious offense. You mentioned it earlier.
03:57It's not because you just went to a restaurant and bought medicine.
04:04That's still a violation.
04:09It's not done by a person who uses a fake ID.
04:13For example, a senior citizen's ID is used to tell others that he has a disease because he can't walk.
04:27But that's not done by a senior citizen.
04:29It's still a violation.
04:32How about those who use a senior citizen's real ID for personal use?
04:40For example, they order food and use the ID of their grandparents.
04:50What is your question, sir?
04:55For example, I bought food and used the ID of my grandparents for personal use.
05:07That's without authority.
05:09It's also true that my grandparents were left at home because they can't walk.
05:15That's also true. It happened.
05:17It's a violation that my grandparents don't have to go to the drugstore because they have a disease.
05:27But they should have an authority.
05:29That authority shouldn't be allowed.
05:33It can be availed by other people if they buy food for their grandparents.
05:41But it's a violation that my grandparents are allowed to do.
05:45And that authority should be given.
05:47It should be shown.
05:49So the authority is just a moral compass, right?
05:55If you're going to use it, is it really for your grandparents?
05:59To be honest.
06:01Yes, to be honest.
06:03But what should employees and establishments do if they have doubts about the pecking ID used by customers?
06:11You're right, ma'am.
06:15If you have doubts.
06:17Because sometimes, I notice that it's obvious that it's a senior citizen.
06:21Or it's obvious that it's a PWD.
06:25Sometimes, you can be stressed with looking for the ID.
06:29Because it's obvious that it's an 8-year-old.
06:31They can't give you a discount.
06:33But you're right, if you have doubts, let's look for the ID.
06:37And the ID, on page value, it's presumed to be valid.
06:43It's presumed that the ID is legal.
06:45So don't abuse it.
06:47Because if it's presumed that the ID is valid, it will be pecked.
06:53But if you really have doubts,
06:55If you have doubts,
06:57look for it, compare it with other IDs.
07:01If you can find it, show it to us.
07:03So it's not really valid to use that ID.
07:09It should have an authorization letter.
07:13Yes, so those who are using it,
07:15those PWDs or senior citizens,
07:17stop using that ID.
07:19Because it has criminal charges.
07:24Once again, thank you very much, Atty.
07:26for answering our questions
07:28and guiding us in this discussion.
07:30Again, we interviewed Atty. Faye Isagiris-Singson.
07:36And one more thing I want to point out.
07:40If we don't have a disease
07:42and we use an ID
07:44that says we have a disease
07:46so we can get a discount,
07:48we should understand that sometimes
07:50we attract the buyer.
07:52So if you don't have a disease
07:54and you want to get a discount,
07:56you might get sick.
07:58So don't use a faking ID
08:00to get a discount.
08:02It's better to buy the right one
08:04as long as it's healthy.
08:06Thank you very much, Atty.
08:10Good morning.
