00:00 The NBI reminded us to be careful when looking for concert tickets online.
00:06 Taylor Swift's fans are in a mess because a ticket seller in the Eras Tour was scammed.
00:13 Ian Cruz has a report.
00:15 Taylor Swift's concert tour in Singapore is in March.
00:24 For a diehard Swiftie like Betty, she's not a real name. She's like a cruel summer if she misses the Eras Tour.
00:33 She couldn't get a ticket to be sold out to the official sellers of July.
00:38 She looked for a ticket online and was taught by a friend of the man who has access to the Eras Tour ticket in Singapore.
00:46 He agreed to meet up. He showed his ID.
00:50 I video called him several times. He confirmed that he's the man who showed his ID.
00:58 Betty thought that the man is Mr. Perfectly Fine.
01:02 I also asked my acquaintances if their previous transactions were successful.
01:07 He sold tickets to social media influencers and celebrities.
01:13 He showed proof of his transactions with other people.
01:17 He was promised to get a ticket two weeks before the concert.
01:21 But when the time came, he couldn't get a ticket.
01:25 Betty couldn't shake it off because she paid P65,000.
01:31 She complained to the NBI.
01:34 The NBI Cybercrime Division said that the victim of the ticket seller is in the streets.
01:40 The "Sparkle" artist, Sofia Pablo, is one of them. The NBI ordered her to avoid scams.
01:47 She bought concert tickets from a black ticket office.
01:50 We should be careful. It's not because someone vouched, it's because they sent their ID.
01:56 Taylor Swift said in one of her songs that "Sometimes, giving up is the strong thing."
02:02 Betty still says "Never say die."
02:04 She has a new partner but she's more careful.
02:08 She's left-handed. If you're in the venue, you'll pay.
02:11 The online marketplace in Singapore, Carousell, announced that it will remove all listings of Taylor Swift tickets
02:19 because of the increase in the number of scams.
02:23 Ian Cruz reporting for GMA Integrated News.
02:27 Senator Robin Padilla apologized for letting his wife, Marielle, have an IV drip inside the Senate.
02:36 Marielle has a clarification about her drip session.
02:39 Ma'am Gonzalez has a report.
02:41 It's vitamin C. We've been doing this for a long time.
02:48 I had no intention whatsoever to disrespect the Senate or anything like that.
02:57 This is Marielle Rodriguez Padilla's clarification after Baticos denied her IV drip
03:03 while Senator Robin Padilla was in the office of her husband.
03:07 Marielle said she was in the Senate to support her husband in his work.
03:11 A professional nurse also watched over her while she was having an IV drip.
03:15 Every week, I have a vitamin C drip.
03:20 You should relax because you're thinking that I'm doing glutathione.
03:32 Marielle did not say in her post what kind of medicine is in her IV drip.
03:37 But it was added in her caption that it helps with metabolism and whitening.
03:41 One of the first people Marielle contacted was Senate Ethics Committee Chairperson Nancy Binay.
03:46 Mr. Binay wrote a letter to Senate President Meigs Ubiri,
03:51 to the Sergeant at Arms and Medical Bureau Director of the Senate to ask for a dispensary.
03:55 They said they will not let the household be left without the Senate's policies.
04:00 Let's just deal with the political issue. We have a lot to talk about.
04:07 Binay accepted Padilla's request for a dispensary.
04:10 But if there is a formal complaint, the Ethics Committee will investigate what Marielle did.
04:16 DOH said that they did not support the use of glutathione as a whitening agent.
04:21 It was only approved by the FDA as an additional treatment in a form of chemotherapy.
04:26 The FDA did not approve any products that are used for skin lightening.
04:31 According to the FDA advisory, the use of vitamin C injection is not safe
04:36 because it can cause kidney stones if the tissue is acidic.
04:42 Mav Gonzalez is the news for GMA Integrated News.
04:46 House Speaker Martin Romualdez promised to strengthen the House's resolution of both houses, number 6 of the Senate.
04:54 Romualdez said in his discussion of the House's resolution of both houses, number 7,
04:59 that the House's own version of the House's amendment to the Economic Provisions of the Legislative Assembly
05:05 is intended to assure the public that only the Economic Provisions of the Legislative Assembly will be amended
05:11 and that no political provisions will be moved.
05:14 Former President Rodrigo Duterte expressed his support for the amendment of the Economic Provisions.
05:20 In a meeting in Cebu City yesterday, Duterte said that he supports the amendments to the Constitution
05:27 compared to the opinion of the citizens and not to those who have their own interests.
05:33 I support changes in the Constitution, Economic Provisions, whatever.
05:42 Even in the terms of the last chapter, even the termination of the President is being appealed.
05:56 I am okay as long as you do not make a mistake in the current and next elections.
06:10 We are still trying to get the Malacanang's vote.
06:13 A man was injured when a train was hit by a train in Naga City.
06:22 According to the witnesses, the man did not notice the approaching train.

06:31 His family has already asked the Philippine National Railways for financial assistance.
06:39 The PNP promised to increase the security of the railways.
06:43 President Bongbong Marcos added expanded centenarian law.
06:54 Under the Amendment of the Centenarian Act of 2016,

07:01 Octogenarians under the age of 80 can receive 10,000 pesos and can continue to play music at the ages of 85, 90 and 95 years old.
07:11 Centenarians can still receive 100,000 pesos.
07:15 The camera plan increased the minimum wage in Metro Manila from 150 to 350 pesos to almost 1,000 pesos per month.
07:26 It is higher than the 100-peso increase approved by the Senate.
07:31 According to some congressmen, they are short of the Senate's budget.
07:36 Speaker Martin Romualdez ordered them to find out how to increase the salary of the workers.
07:42 But some senators said that if the increase is only 100 pesos, many are cutting it.
07:48 What if it is increased to 350 pesos?
07:51 The negotiators said that it is possible that it will lead to the price of the goods to increase.
