Philippines Scams & Warnings

Archive for the ‘Girlfriends’ Category

We received this email from a reader who has listed every peso he has spent on his ‘honey-ko’, over P260,000. He doesn’t say how long this ‘whole time was’ but at P2,200 a week, plus milk for a baby at P1500 twice a month, let’s say he spent P300,000 on this Pinay. That is about US$7,000. At P3,000 a night for food, booze and barfine he could have had 100 nights of sin for the same money and not be feeling bitter about it.

His last remark about how he can’t believe the parents let this happen is indicative of his good heart and sadly, naivety. The truth is the parents taught her, supported her and encouraged her. Survival there is a very real thing and so when they tap into a walking ATM, it’s party time for everybody. Be glad it was only seven large, plenty of men have spent a lot more and ended up dead for their generosity. Editor.

This scam that this family did was supported by the whole Cortez family.  Be careful of this scandalous family. I cant believe the mother and father let all this happen.

Real? Fake? He? she?

If you visit StreetWise Philippines Dot Biz there is a great article there on penpal scams. It includes some photos taken from a genuine penpal website and examines them to detect the signs that something is not right. One girl (who might be a boy) has the lamest bio blurb going. If you fall for that lot of buwad (dried fish, very smelly) you will send money even as you click on the link to go there! Yet so many men do fall for her charms. Check it out. It has a scammer and potential transsexual, a working GRO and a genuine Filipina and why each is what it is.

Michel:

Middle nov. 2008 i was contacted in ym by a girl, angelblack_0888@yahoo.com, nice talks, later a request for some money to buy food. I had no experience at all with these stories. I started to send, first small amounts (food, medication, transportation), later the amounts became bigger (new mobile). The name of the girl was “Michelle de Guzman”, 22y old. Now i know that it just was a fake name with falsified identity. But it was no problem, one of the tellers in Dinalupihan (Bataan) was a friend of “Michelle”. In july 2009 i travelled to Manila for a first meeting. Nobody showed up at the airport, “michelle” showed up later at the hotel, joined by Bhea, a gay, he was the owner of the ID “angelblack_0888″, i discouvered it later. Also joined them a friend, Mary ann and her little daughter Trisha. I think we visited all malls in Manila, shopping for Michelle and Bhea. They ware txting all the time (the gay gived instructions to Michelle). Mary Ann and her daughter just observed what was happening. The behavior of Bhea and Michelle was disturbing me. I sent Bhea away. We rent a van to go to Olongapo. The codriver was a relative of Michelle, so she told me. Michelle leaved me at evening, because she had to take care about her brother, she had to join him at a schoolactivity, her parents ware dead so it was her duty. Nobody returned, i called Mary Ann to know what was happening…
One hour later they arrived at the hotel, Mary Ann, Michelle, and 2 other gayfriends. Michelle had to confess things to me, she was not at all Michelle, but Pamela Santos, 17y old, 18 in oct 2009. She just was the face on the internet of a game that Bhea (in real Travis Vizda) was playing with me. I know now also that she delivered her “services” for other gay in her village, she only got a small part of the money i sent. She asked forgiveness and they invited me to join them to their village, Dinalupihan. So, i did… The next day, at evening, Pamela’s parents joined me at the room where i stayed. I decided to return to Manila to save my vacation. I really was confused… I visited friends in Cebu (an american retired soldier, he had the same experience on the net). I still had some contact with Pamela, because she was forced to do this to me, i tought. I decided to see her back before i returned home and yes, we made some promises to her, if she stopped her internet”work” i should send some support. Nice words, nice promises, i could return home not totaly disappointed.
I was invited to celebrate her 18th b-day on oct.30, so i returned to Dinalupihan. Pamela expected some amount for the celebration (20.000 pesos), but we never celebrated her b-day, she joined her friends all the time, leaving me alone at her place. Her parents tryed to entertain me, but this was the reason of my vacation.
I still was very naive… her explanation to me was that she didnt know how to handdle in my presense.
I continued my support because i made this promise to her parents. Pamela promised me to act more mature if i wanted to return. So i did, this year in april, with alot of expectations… nothing became true, she showed the same attitude, she hardly was at home. By respect for her parents, i didnt want to abuse their hospitality i stayed also all this time at their place. Back home all the nice talks restart, promises, begging for help for her study in a private school. Again i paid all schoolcosts, uniforms, books, seminars, excursions, midterm and finals. Pamela started at that time to talk about marrying me, i know now that it just was a warranty of my support. We should talk about in during my next visit. I arrived oct 22 in Manila, for the first time Pamela was also at the airport to pick me up. But from the start i had again that bad feeling and yes, already at the first day she joined her friends, leaving me alone, i went that evening to a hotel in Olongapo, because i told her before that i shouldnt stay this time if she didnt keep her promise to me to share all her time. Her father joined me for the night. They convinced me to return to Dinalupihan in the morning. Yes, i still wanted to give her a last chance. Her attitude changed but just for very short, so i decided to return to manila, staying in Dinalupihan should be again a wast of time by waiting for Pam. I recieved a few txt of her about my plans for her birthday, but it was no invitation to join her, just to get her gifts i think. I invited her to join me in Manila, twice she asked for money for transport, she never leaved her place. Just a few hours before my return home she came to Manila with her father, at that moment i heared from her school that she dropped school just after enrollment, i feeled so cheated, so i decided not to see her anymore, she probably just came to pickup her b-daygift (a laptop) and money for school again..
When y read all this y can say that i really was stupid, i admit. I was blinded by love, Pamela was blinded by money, she dont know the color of my eyes i guess, she only say the €-signs in it
Why i wrote this? By revenge? No, just as warning, you all could be the next. 3 days ago i saw that the first ymID is activated again, probably looking for a new victim.
So, stay away from angelblack_0888 or ella_rapella@yahoo.com just only contact them if you really hate your money!

A friend sent in this lengthy piece which I feel raises some valid points. I am not sure of the writer’s motivation or objective but read it and decide for yourself. He raises some very important and interesting points and for anyone considering going online or who already uses a chat cam site, this is something they really should read.

Webcam Cyber Sex Girls- A Reportage
Asian p0rn has been on the Internet since the very beginning of the latter, but for the past several years, there has been a new addition to the already large selection of erotic Asian pictures, videos and other such things- live Asian webcam “cyber sex”. It is kind of like an Asian-themed “improvement” on phone sex because it is accompanied by live images, and you can actually see the person in front of you who is giving you a sexy performance and not just hear their voice, as it used to be in the pre-internet days. What’s more, it is being “broadcast” from overseas – Asia in this case-which makes the whole thing rather exotic and interesting to many lovers of online adult entertainment.
In short, there are now sites where you go in, and you see a huge selection of these little thumbnails for you to choose from. In each thumbnail, there is a photo of a young Asian lady (sometimes, even a young man, or couples, both hetero- and “alternative” ) that you can chat with for anywhere from $1-$3 a minute. Typically, you need to sign up for a free membership, get your online ID, and then, you are ready to chat in a sexy way with the “models”.
When you log in, and click on the thumbnail, you will be taken to another page where a full window will open with a somewhat larger screen. You can now start your free chat. The lady will greet you, usually with a, “Hi, bb (baby)” or a “Hi, hon”, ask a few questions about how old you are, where you are from, etc. say that you come from a nice place and are of a nice age, and then inquire if you want to “play in private” or “go private” which means that you will now witness some erotic action.
For this you will need to get credits. So, you are taken to another page where you use your credit card, and, after a minute or two, are loaded with $25 dollars or so of chat time. You are now ready to go. When you ask the lady to “play in private” with you, and press the “take her private” button at your behest, the model will generally do anything you want- in most cases, she will undress and show you every part of her anatomy. Just ask for it. On some occasions, she will perform various solo acts with her hands, sometimes, with sex toys, and “talk dirty” to you.

The Right Filipino Partner

This is THE most often discussed and talked about topic when it comes to moving\retiring in the Philippines. I was naive or better put ignorant about this when I came. Let me put it bluntly this way. Not all, but many Filipino girls are fishing. They are at the lake with their line in the water trying to catch the “golden” fish. Catching the golden fish is a life changer. Not only for the Filipino girl but in most cases her family too. A big life changer. The games and the scams are many. Being a foreigner here is like having a tattoo on your forehead, “I’m rich, take advantage of me”.

Here is my experience. Early on I met a girl on the net that lived 90km away from Cagayan de oro. She was poor, had 6 brothers and sisters and a mother and father, all very poor people. She was beautiful and sexy, using that to change her life and that of her family. I can not really blame her, she was using what she had to better herself and family. She was fishing and landed a golden fish. I learned later that she worked all day in the local market earning 50-100 pesos and then spending the evening at the Internet fishing. I wanted to meet and marry a Filipino girl. After spending 150,000p for animals, tuition and help for her family, time drew near for us to leave to for the USA. Then her father wanted 5,000p sent to him a month. She asked that I pay a 30,000p debt of her father. Finally, she ask if she could have her work when we went to the States. I asked why, there was no need. She told me it was to support her family. That is when it finally came to me, marrying her would be like marrying the whole family. She could not leave them poor and I could not blame her, it just would not work.

Reading about someone who was scammed and had to move back to their home Country is sad. Don’t let it happen to you.

There are many signs to watch for. Asking for money or needing money is a big one. There are others. Get on some Groups or Forums and ask questions. The more you know and learn, the better your life will be here. Feel free to e-mail me at hughes3864@yahoo.com
