SEC warns against six investment-taking entities – BusinessWorld Online

THE Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) in separate advisories warned the public against the investment-taking activities of six entities that are not registered as a corporation or a partnership.
The commission identified them as PPG Investment Group, Livewell Multi-Ventures, BlackRock, Perfx Solution Corp., Trading Basket, and Flipkart. All are not authorized to solicit investments from the public.
PPG Investment, which also operates as Conamor Shop, was found to be engaging in investment-taking activities including borrowing capital from investors to buy beauty products. These products are said to be sold to consumers with investors profiting from the sales.
PPG Investment is not registered with the commission and operates without the necessary license, the regulator said.
Meanwhile, Livewell Multi-Ventures entices the public to invest in its advertisements, trading, agriculture, manufacturing and logistics operations.
According to the SEC, the entity offers three plans — Tester Plan, Home Starter, and Eagle Plan, at P500, P5,000 and P50,000, respectively. Investors are promised a fixed return income of 3% for 60 days or a total of 180% in two months.
In another advisory, the SEC warned the public against BlackRock, which it found to have been recruiting investors with a promised earning from “crude oil energy.”
BlackRock offers five types of investment plans that cost from P100 to P5,000 for a promised daily income as high as 5.4% and as low as 1.5%.
The entity shares the same name as a multinational investment company.
According to the regulator, the real BlackRock, Inc. believes that what the local entity offers is an active scam.
Separately, the commission found out that Trading Cartel, an entity which the commission previously issued an advisory against, is operating as Perfx Solution and Trading Basket or Trading Philippines.
All three entities, according to the SEC, are under Jeiel Jephone Ofreneo Canlas, who also goes by the name Japhon Canlas.
Meanwhile, Flipkart is said to have been offering an “advance fee” scheme, which is a form of fraud wherein investors are promised a large sum of money in exchange for a small up-front payment.
“If the victim makes the payment, the fraudster either asks for further fees from the victim or they simply disappear after obtaining the amount,” the regulator said.
The SEC told the public not to enter into such arrangements and advised them to report advance fee frauds or scams to the National Bureau of Investigation or the Philippine National Police’s Anti-Cybercrime Group. — Justine Irish D. Tabile

US President-elect Donald Trump has upended bipartisan efforts to avert a government shutdown, after he rejected a stopgap bill and pressed Republican lawmakers to either renegotiate it or risk their political careers. The new bill would have kept federal funding running at the current level until March after the current short-term spending plan expires on Friday night. Plus, the ongoing political crisis in Georgia is taking a toll on its economy, especially tourism.

Religious liberty group awards Texas town for keeping Nativity scene at courthouse – The Christian Post

A religious liberty advocacy organization awarded a group of residents in a Texas town this week for pushing back against a resident who attempted to have a Nativity scene outside their local courthouse removed.
The Becket Fund for Religious Liberty announced Tuesday that the citizens of Sweetwater were the recipients of its inaugural “Tiny Tim Toast” award for showing up in droves to express their opposition to taking down the Nativity scene outside the Nolan County Courthouse.
Sweetwater is a town of approximately 10,000 people about 40 miles west of Abilene.
Last week, there was standing room only when the Nolan County Commissioners Court held a public forum regarding a call from Carolyn Anne Frawley to take down the Nativity, according to CBS affiliate KTAB.
Frawley penned a letter to the editor of the local newspaper, the Sweetwater Reporter, expressing her opposition to the Nativity display on government property, citing the separation of church and state.
Faraway notably left “Christian” uncapitalized in her letter, despite capitalizing “Jewish,” “Muslim,” “atheist” and “freethinkers.”
“Not all residents of Nolan County are of one religion,” Faraway wrote in part. “There are people who are Jewish and maybe even Muslim and of course Atheist. Yes, we do exist even though many christians choose to ignore or use intimidation to keep Freethinkers whispering instead of speaking out.”
“The Obvious christian law display must be removed from our public property. The Nolan County Courthouse is a representative and place for government business for ALL Nolan County residents, not just christians,” she added.
Faraway also attended the meeting on Dec. 9, but was the only one who spoke out in opposition to the display, according to CBS affiliate KTXS.
“The religious display should be removed from the Nolan County courthouse lawn,” Frawley said. “It is a taxpayer-supported public building where county and city business is conducted. It is not a church and the display is an over-Christian display.”
KTXS noted that eight other people spoke in support of the Nativity display, and that authorities took no action on the issue, which allowed the display to remain outside the courthouse.
Mark Rienzi, who serves as president and CEO of Becket, praised the solidarity of Sweetwater residents who showed up in support of their Nativity scene.
“When the humbug spirit tried to snuff out Sweetwater’s cherished Nativity scene, the locals stood their ground with unshakable resolve,” Rienzi said in a statement provided to The Christian Post. “God bless them for the courage they showed in the face of adversity — it should be an inspiration to all those who wish to keep the Christmas and Hanukkah season sacred.”
The “Tiny Tim Toast” award — named after the boy in Charles Dickens’ A Christmas Carol — took the place of Becket’s annual “Ebenezer Award,” which for 23 years highlighted “the most outrageous offenders of the holidays,” according to its website.
This year, the group decided instead to highlight “an individual or group who inspires hope and perseverance in the face of adversity during the Christmas and Hanukkah season.”
“Every Christmas and Hanukkah season, there are some bureaucrats and activists who seek to shut out the lights on religious displays and expression,” Rienzi said. “This year, Becket is happy to raise a hearty toast to all those who stood firm against these efforts, unwavering in defending faith’s rightful place in the public square. Here’s to you, the citizens of Sweetwater, Texas, for keeping the faith.”
According to Becket’s 2024 Religious Freedom Index, 62% of Americans believe that people of faith are crucial to solving the problems facing the United States.
