Circulating Earthquake Warning Text Messages - a hoax according to Philvolcs
Category [tags]: Current Events
The Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology (Philvolcs) confirmed that circulating text messages regarding a magnitude 6.8 earthquake prediction to hit the Philippine Plate is a hoax.
U.S. GEOLOGICAL SOCIETY PREDICTS A 6.8 MAGNITUDE EARTHQUAKE WILL HIT PHILIPPINE PLATE TONIGHT. PLS BE CALM & ALERT. This txt msg is from hawaii state emergency preparedness office. Please pass (no harm in being prepared) lets pray dis will not happen.
Philvolcs also clarified that they are not aware of any United States Geological Society, instead they are working with the United States Geological Service (but as far as I know its US Geological Survey). They also stressed out that there is no current technology that can accurately predict an earthquake.
