Relatives of veteran actresses Caridad Sanchez and Gloria Romero called out a company selling essential oil using their name.
The said product, Divezo essential oil included a fake testimonial from Romero and Sanchez to convince the netizens to buy their product.
Divezo claimed that Romero and Sanchez benefited from using the said essential oil which promised its customers to gain better brain function.
However, a report by Pep.ph included a statement from the camp of Sanchez and Romero revealing that they’re already communicating with their lawyers to file charges against the owners of Divezo.
“It’s terrible how these alleged companies are using the names and faces of two highly respected actresses. What’s worse is that my mom and Tita Caridad are super seniors already!” Maritess Gutierrez, daughter of Romero said.
“I knew right away it was a fraud because my mom doesn’t even know about that product, and the testimonial attributed to her does not sound like her at all,” Cathy Babao-Sanchez, daughter of Sanchez stated.
According to them, they’re disappointed that a company was using the name of Romero who’s already 89, and Sanchez, who’s 87.
They also cautioned the netizens not to believe everything on the internet and do some research first.
