I am a 66-year-old lifelong single guy with no kids. I am not rich but I have more than I need. I'm already a slave to 'stuff' I own so accumulating more isn't appealing. I have politely declined every "once in a lifetime opportunity" ever offered to me. I never click on hyperlinks embedded in emails and I've ignored a fortune in cash & merchandise I've "won" over the years. In a past video Paul notes the distinction between a victim and a volunteer. Keep your wallet closed and you won't be scammed. I won't travel anywhere without doing extensive research on safety and knowing the do's and don'ts. I get all the valor I'll ever need knowing I'm the son of a selfless, soft-spoken WWII combat veteran who devoted his entire life to his family. I hope some day to visit the Philippines and perhaps live there. Up to this point I've lived entirely for myself, I'd like to spend some of my remaining years volunteering to help others. We'll see.

You are definitely right! I am not rich, but like to help. Where I live , lots of homeless people. I offered to help one homeless person and this person took advantage of me. Now, I still help but no longer help like before. I live in California, too many homeless folks around. What are your thoughts on these?

Once I was in the bank to cash a check and an old lady wanted to send $1000 to London, England. She had gotten an email telling her she had won a prize and needed to make the deposit to get it. The teller questioned the transaction and the manager tried to talk her out of it but the old lady insisted I left but it was sad to see.

A great video, Paul! If it sounds too good to be true - it probably is (greed). And beware of people giving unsolicited compliments about clothes, hair, or shoes you're wearing (ego). It was a trick I remember a drug company salesman turned psychology personal development coach once taught us in a work training course to use when building rapport with people.. Umm, also trust but verify (ask the person calling something that only you and them know?). That said, compared to many other places, the Philippines still sounds like a very safe, welcoming and beautiful place to live. Still not put off tho! Ten years and counting until I have saved enough to retire comfortably. Tick-tock, the wait is truly mind-numbingly infuriating!!

Hi Paul, anybody is fooled by a heart-warming compliment, especially if you have gone through a hard time. About the child's story that is mentioned, the answer to that is to ask a question that would identify a distant relative known to the child. That would solve the matter instantly, seeing that whoever is demanding the ransom will not have that information.

Before I was a RN and computer tech, I was an insurance agent that specialized in Senior citizen products like Medicare supplements, nursing and homecare, estate planning life insurance, annuity products. I never wanted to put my client's money at risk because they were retired and could not go out and do what they did again to get what they have. When bank CDs went from paying 10% + to 3% a lot of the people went from eating steak to beans and they took the risk of getting into the stock market and lost their ass. I would put them into annuities that were safe and backed up and gave them around 6-7% with a guarantee to never fall below 3-4%. This was a good deal for everyone involved, especially my conscience.

Perfect Timing Paul - I was chatting with some Filipinos here in San Diego about your most recent video and our discussion centered around the number of expats in the PI. Your guest, Ian is spot on and it's a shame that there are a lot of bad folks who have reinvented themselves in Southeast Asia. When in doubt, do your research. Btw, I'm a former Internal Auditor who has worked on Fraud cases, which resulted in jail/prison time. I can tell you that a lot of fraudsters are actually very friendly, outgoing and likeable. Only use your gut feel if it is warning you of a potential scam. Fake/shell companies, sure-fire investments, sick family, billing schemes, identity theft, fake reimbursements - these are only a few ways you can be defrauded. Social Engineering is primary when scamming individuals, so be safe out there!

people who embezzled from corporations and get caught and do time never learn their lesson. They always get out and do it again, it's like an addiction, he stole $1.68 million from two hospitals but he had over $3 million to pay back in restitution, where did he get that money from? These people seem to be able to sniff out the money and how to get at it. He says he was with the Goodwill during a disaster, that is a very good way to embezzle money as it is very hard to audit where that money goes for disaster relief. and he was CEO of quite a few hospitals overseas for a very short time. I wonder why he moved on so quick? And these big time scammers are always on the lookout for an accomplice. I would bet some money that he is already looking for an accomplice, or already has one lined up and planning his next scheme.

A really interesting vlog Paul. "If it sounds too good to be true. It usually is!" Certain types of crimes are thought to be victimless BULL S#!T no such thing. If you don't insure your vehicle (certainly in the UK) it costs everyone who does insure money to finance an "Uninsured Driver Fund" that pays victims of accidents where a perpetrator is uninsured. Fraud cases are a classic. I was involved in the investigation of a case where a couple of companies were set up they had people in management positions in hospitals and were supplying counterfeit drugs to hospitals. In court one accused argued "It's the health service they have billions to spend." The health service in the UK is funded by contributions from everyone working and paying tax. These people weren'r supplying counterfeit low cost drugs. They supplied drugs for oncology, cardiology and other serious illnesses. Packaging looked genuine as did the drugs. Subsequent chemical analysis showed they were fake. So what about the patients with serious illnesses prescribed what everyone believed to be genuine drugs? They had months or years of their lives stolen by people motivated by greed. Scamming is BIG business you don't have to point a gun or knife at someone it can be done remotely but is no less devastating. Couple of years ago I guy I went to school with lost his job he'd done at a company for 30 years. The Finance Director who had been there more than 10 years developed a taste for gambling and ladies who charge by the hour for their companionship. Over several years he'd embezled money from the firm. Eventually while he was on holiday a routine query exposed anomalies the firm was forced into bankrupcy and 22 people lost their jobs!

Paul, this was a very interesting video that hopefully, opened up the eyes for many tourists, WHEREVER they may be heading to. Even here in the great USA, there are tons and tons of SCAMMERS calling people on the phone, sending fake mail to homes, including sending fraudelent emails!! I mean lots and lots of this stuff continues to hapoen each and EVERY day! Dont trust ANYONE, be mindful of your surroundings, and always be vigilant of people approaching you for ANY favor!

Never do a deal with someone over the phone that you have not met in person. And also only do a deal with someone that you seek out if they seek you out don’t do the deal just keep moving. These scammers that contact me over the phone I just tell them I never do a deal over the phone let’s meet in person. That usually scares them away. Then I told him I didn’t seek you out you seek me out I’m not going to do a deal with someone that seeks me out ever!!!

Anyone who tries to convince you he has a get rich quick scheme you need to ask yourself one question. Why wouldn't they just use this scheme to get rich all by themselves? If it was legit a financial institution would lend them money. If the financial institution thinks its too much of a risk you should too. People don't help strangers get rich, they try and separate you from your money. The compounding of interest overtime is your best bet at being financially stable.

Knowing these scams are going on, it would be good to gather your family and friends to establish a "code word" to verify who you're talking to.
