MANILA, Philippines — With the 2022 elections drawing near, the Commission on Elections (Comelec) yesterday reminded politicians not to fall for con artists whose modus operandi is to entice them with promises of sure victory.

Comelec spokesperson James Jimenez warned politicians not to believe those who claim they can manipulate the election system for a fee.

“Over the weekend, we have gotten a lot of reports of people trying to run a con, telling politicians that if they pay, they can win. We would like to remind everyone, the politicians especially, not to be misled into believing this is possible. This is not possible,” he said.
