Rufa Mae Quinto celebrates end of investment scam case: 'I'm free and alive!'

Rufa Mae Quinto on Friday announced that the case for her alleged violations of the securities regulation code has ended.

On X, the comedienne shared a glam video and thanked everyone who believed in her.

“Maraming salamat sa naniwala saakin and yes, tapos na ang kaso!” she said.

“I’m free and alive! I love you all! Move on na tayo,” she added.

In January, Rufa Mae was involved in an investment scam in relation to the issue of Dermacare.

She was charged with 14 counts of violation of Section 8 of the Securities Regulation Code, which states that securities such as shares and investments may not be sold in the Philippines without a registration statement duly filed with and approved by the SEC.

Following her arrest warrant, Rufa Mae denied her involvement and cooperated with the authorities, voluntarily surrendering to the NBI. She posted bail for P1.7 million.

Later that month, a scammer used her name to ask for P45,000 to use for her bail.

“Paki kalat nyo nga po please itong gusto mang hingi ng pera sa mga kakilala ko. Wag na kayo gumawa ng kwento at naireport ko na kayo sa lawyer ko. Friends be ware and aware! Salamat for sharing to all,” she said.
