Rufa Mae Quinto announced on Friday that the legal case filed against her for allegedly violating the Securities Regulation Code has officially ended.

In a post on X (formerly Twitter), Rufa shared a glamorous video and expressed gratitude to those who stood by her throughout the ordeal.

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

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

The actress was previously involved in an investment scam issue linked to Dermacare earlier this year. She faced 14 counts of violating Section 8 of the Securities Regulation Code, which prohibits the sale of securities—such as shares and investments—in the Philippines without a registered and approved statement from the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).

Following the issuance of a warrant for her arrest, Rufa Mae denied involvement, cooperated with authorities, voluntarily surrendered to the National Bureau of Investigation (NBI), and posted bail amounting to ₱1.7 million.

Later that same month, a scammer reportedly used her name to solicit ₱45,000 from acquaintances under the pretense of helping her with 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 warned in another post.

With the case now closed, Rufa Mae encourages everyone to move on.
