SEC ADVISORY
Based on the information gathered by the Commission, a number of individuals
or group of persons claiming to represent YDYS TRADING OPC, headed by MAR
ALBERT PONDANG HIDALGO, is enticing the public to invest their money in said
entity.
As posted online, YDYS TRADING OPC is offering investments to the public
ranging from PHP 300 up to PHP 50,000. Investors earn 35% for a 10-day period;
35% for the next ten (10) days; 35% for the following ten (10) days; and 145% earnings
for the next fifteen (15) days, FOR A TOTAL OF ACCUMULATED EARNINGS OF
250% IN JUST 45 DAYS.
Interested individuals may contact any agent and choose which package they
may opt to avail. Investors can buy packages by depositing their payment to the
assigned payment channel. Investors may monitor their income and request payout
through their profile on the website: https://ydyscrypto.com/.
Staking package/s also earn “product points” to redeem the following Gadget and
Car Incentives.
YDYS TRADING OPC is associated with the product “Buah Merah”. This product
is only available when you choose the Orange Staking package equivalent to PHP
5,000 and Gold Staking package equivalent to PHP 50,000. Upon further investigation,
YDYS TRADING OPC appears to release a new product named “DreamSlim
Cleansing and Slimming Coffee” soon.
Investors may also earn through the following:
1. Direct Referral Bonus where an upline recruits another investor and will earn
50% of the package availed by the direct downline.
2. Upgrade Bonus can also be earned when the downline wishes to increase the
current value of its package, the upline earns 50% from the upgraded package.
3. Team Rewards Commission shall be earned when the downline is able to
recruit more investors. For every investor, the upline will earn 1% commission
from the downline’s earnings.
As the above described schemes involve the sale of securities to the public, the
Securities Regulation Code (SRC) requires that these securities should be duly registered
and that the concerned corporation and/or its agents have the appropriate registration
and/or license to sell such securities to the public pursuant to Section 8 of the SRC.
The records of the Commission show that YDYS TRADING OPC is registered with
the Commission on 01 March 2022 as a One Person Corporation. However, as indicated in
its Certificate of Incorporation, it clearly states that it is NOT AUTHORIZED to solicit
investments from the public since it has not secured prior registration and/or license from
the Commission as prescribed under Sections 8 and 28 of the SRC.
Furthermore, its purpose as stated in its Articles of Incorporation is quoted, as
follows:
“To engage in, conduct and carry on the business of buying, selling,
distributing, marketing on wholesale and retail basis…
Provided that the corporation shall not solicit, accept or take
investments/placements from the public neither shall it issue investment
contracts.”
Thus, the above-quoted specifies that the Corporation is prohibited from taking
investments/placements as it requires secondary license from this Commission.
Hence, those who act as salesmen, brokers, dealers or agents or claim to act as
such for YDYS TRADING OPC in selling or convincing people to invest in the investment
scheme being offered by said entity including solicitations and recruitment through the
internet may be prosecuted and held criminally liable under Section 28 of the SRC and
penalized with a maximum fine of Five Million pesos (P5,000,000.00) or penalty of Twenty-
one (21) years of imprisonment or both pursuant to Section 73 of the SRC.
Also, those who invite or recruit others to join or invest in such venture or offer
investment contracts or securities to the public may incur criminally liability, or otherwise be
sanctioned or penalized accordingly as held by the Supreme Court in the case of Securities
and Exchange Commission vs. Oudine Santos (G.R. No. 195542, 19 March 2014).
The public is advised NOT TO INVEST or STOP INVESTING in any investment
scheme being offered by any individual or group of persons allegedly for or on behalf of
YDYS TRADING OPC and to exercise caution in dealing with any individuals or group of
persons soliciting investments for and on behalf of it.
Should you have any information regarding the operation of YDYS TRADING OPC
or any securities solicitation activity by any individual or group of individuals representing
YDYS TRADING OPC, please call the Enforcement and Investor Protection Department at
telephone numbers (02) 8818-6047 or send your report to the EIPD at [email protected].
For the guidance of the public.
