THE DANGERS FOR FOREIGNERS IN THE PHILIPPINES Vlog 1

[@imkakaya9079]

Male friend I knew had a girlfriend who was Filipino as he lived in Manila for 1 year. She moved in with him so he added her name on rental contract as she wanted that address as well to receive mail and orders. He noticed money occasionally missing from his wallet so he started to mark it with a pen on his notes. When out he noticed these in her jewellery box with money he estimated missing. He also found pics of her and another Boyfriend , there were 2 or 3 also foreigners she was probably extracting money from as well. So one day when she was out he packed his bags to head back to UK , took all his money he calculated she had stolen and even had another suitcase to pack all items he had given her including shoes, laptop, iPad, cameras, clothes etc with plan selling all on ebay. He then emailed landlord and said he was leaving and his Filipino girlfriend would be responsible for the rest of 6 month contract - she never had any choice and was forced to pay the rent as he left country, considering this was a luxury apartment far more expensive than she would normally live. She was totally pissed but deserved it! Revenge can be sweet!

[@tremainw1413]

You might find that one of those other foreigners was only too happy to pay up for the room... Also, it's not certain here, that the landlord may also have been the naughty one, with a bit of all too useful 'openall rooms armour' up his sleeve... Your friend could have removed all doubt that it was definitely her, before absconding. It's weird all the same, how there seem to be more stories of slippy fingers coming from here, compared to say from LOS, where there are many more foreigners both visiting and residing. Different attitudes and, sadly, more who are facing desparation, may well be the cause.

[@stevewittwer7444]

They are poor people trying to survive. He shouldn't have taken the gifts back because they were her possessions, not his. He knew she was taking money and let her continue, he set her up. He should have left her with the money as well, for being so stupid. She deserves it more than him.

if a taxi doesn't want to use the meter then get out immediately .. .

Hi Lucas, so the best thing to do is ask the driver immediately if he'll use the meter? Cheers!

yep and if he tries to give you a special deal just get out

[@jameswilliams5270]

Thanks for giving the real from a Filipino. Especially important (for me) that it's coming from a Filipina prospective. It adds credibility to the warning for foreigners. Not to say that others aren't credible in their warnings. Thank you, subbed, and keep them coming.

[@Tominthephilippines]

I couldn't agree more! ;-)

[@ChicaMaeCosina]

You're welcome James. If you have questions, please let me know. I can make a video for all of you guys questions about Philippines. But disclaimer: this is just my own thoughts. :)

[@jameswilliams5270]

First, I am 6 years married to my Filipino wife. Second, I have been traveling to the Philippines since 2010. 3. Philippines is not the only country that is a haven for "paedophiles" _[sic]_ Here's the correct spelling pedophiles. The USA is a big haven of Sexual Offenders, and pedophiles. As well as Thailand, Brazil, Sri Lanka, and many European countries. If you have insecurity about your intention in the Philippines, then it is you with the problem. I have never thought about people looking at me as a "pedophile" or "sex tourist." Those that are weak minded and worry about what others think of them are the fools. Being "horny" is a natural urge. People will act on that urge with their significant other, spouse, girlfriend, or someone they are attracted to physically and or mentally. If YOU have insecurities or moral issues with what people think or what their intentions are in the Philippines. Go right up that person or people and voice your concerns, disdain, or moral issue in what you perceive as "paedophiles" _[sic]_ or _"their safety above their being horny."_ Why don't you get a camera, and film these men and women. Post online and shame them into submission.

[@ItsMe_Philippines]

Red Carded where did you come up with that information? I've been visiting the Philippines since 1999 and I am currently married to a Filipina. We travel there twice a year minimum. I've also lived there for four years straight. Do some foreigners go there for sex? Yes of course, but I would say that would be less than 10%. And what is the percentage of that looking for underage? Really not sure it would hard to come up with the statistics for that unless I would actually watch each individual person have sex. So I would like to know where you gather this information and then call the facts. Because myself along with a lot of my friends and family go there because it is extremely cheap, we love the food, The people, the scenery, we like to explore and of course the beaches/water is beautiful. I think you're hearing about one or two bad instances and assuming that that's why millions of people go there per year to visit. I'm not saying it doesn't happen because it does, but that is not why "most people go there."

[@oahudude5267]

[@67buddie]

X Who Hows that??

[@craigk2644]

Michael the majority of slags online are there for online bf only. Most have kids, a live in bf etc. Will tell u differently. U will be hit up for meds, school fees, rent, family emergency. U need to use logic. If a person does not work, why would their family expect them to pay ? . My strong advice, try to find a pinay a few months before going over. Have about three for four lined up for a meet. Most of the time the pinay will back out or delay the process of meeting. Any slag who wants to bring a friend along for a meet is a freeloader. Just want a meal, she is not serious. Ignore these types of slags. Many online who are in the major cities like manila or cebu, are happy to meet up at a hotel for a night. Most and i mean most, cant travel away from their city. Reason is most online have a bf/hubby already and/or just interested in cash. U can find but u probably need to type to a few hundred. Just remember any slag who directly or indirectly wants some cash, ignore. There are filipinos who are sincere and wanting a white bf. These types will not ask for cash. Does happen they do exist. I have watched other dudes vid's on youtube about dating sites. I would give those a miss. Waste of time. Try tagged, more of the same but u dont have to pay.

[@Adrian-Silviu]

I’m from Romania and I’m resident in Denmark since 6 years ago. I was visiting Philippine and I feel really safe, more safe that in many european country and people really kind , respectful and really happy, I just think that tourist who get problems they are looking for problems. The only issue it’s with taxing but my girlfriend educated me to use grab. I love Philippine

Thanks for sharing that which in a way says about the rather good things in😢 our country as against the seeming general negative import that this vlog has brought about.

[@MrRicardo361]

Hi Maayong gabii..Thanks for the honest advice! We stay in Cebu a lot for work and thankfully have not had any issues like these there. People are really kind and gentle from the past 4 years living there on and off. This is odd since in Manila I frequently come across numerous crooked taxis/habal2x/jeep etc.

[@nickuk1320]

great advice for people coming there ..my first time there the taxi driver refused to put the taxi meter on and kept on saying 600 good deal i walked away got a metered taxi and it was 200 so people do have to be aware most definately.and also dont walk around wearing lots of gold your just bringing the wrong attention to yourself..apart from that a great country and fantastic people.

[@ChicaMaeCosina]

I already have new video launched. Thank you all for the support.

[@interracial2564]

you r so cute!!!!

[@roysheaks1261]

Nick uk Get a picture of his meter, his face and his license plate, and turn him in to Duterte's anti-corruption "task force." Better yet, a video with sound would be better. He'll take you to your destination for free after that. Then you can decide whether to turn him in anyway.

[@craigk2644]

with taxi drivers wanting more than the actual cost. U can refuse to pay the fare. Refuse to pay after reaching your destination. Does not matter if the taxi driver say this or that regarding the fare. If u see a security guard or even a police officer, can flag the guy down. No doubt the taxi driver would flee. What is a taxi driver going to do, if a white refuses to pay the fare ? fook all. Of course only to be advised if going to a shopping centre or hotel, where the foreigner would have some assistance against the corrupted taxi driver. With the duterte administration, the corrupted taxi driver would avoid drama in a public place.

[@martymcfly5423]

taxi drivers want to make more money with foreigners, thats why they charge higher. Its their car, they can set the price. You can take the offer or refuse it or make a different offer by yourself. Thats the free market ^^

[@melvinramsey6192]

Thanks for being honest and sharing. These things really help.

[@rocky7983]

You are right I have been to the Philippines 3 times and stayed 45 days every time and it is beautiful and peaceful and you also have your ghettos like in USA. I like to add that if you go to a restaurant remember to bring your napkins or a towel as these type of paper items are not handed out as freely as in the USA. Oh and take wet ones or toilet paper with you to the restroom including government buildings. when I go I use sunglasses and those kids you talked about spot me a mile away at the beach and outside markets. People their will reprimand the kids to leave the foreigner alone sometimes it works. Just be vigilant, carry in front pocket or closed pocket books, don't get caught drunk in the streets, and don't go out alone at night. Use common sense.

[@tonycicarella876]

Such a shame that the PI is not what is was when Clark AB was there. I lived in the PI for two years back in the late 70’s. Met some of the warmest nicest people back then. The true PI culture is warm and as a guest a Pilipino would give you the shirt off their back then. Losing the income the military brought to this small country has severely impacted this country so now I think a lot of them do what they have to in order to survive.

I was also here back then some of the best times of my life. I knew then I would retire in the P.I I lived long enough to do just that. I believe my prior experience made me more aware of the pitfalls. I don't deal with Bar girls. I never bring any woman to my home right away .I have no intentions of getting married and I tell any woman I am dating that first up front . when I do go to bars I do not buy drinks for the girls . I have found they will leave you alone once they see you are not a sucker or a fool. They get tips for bringing my drinks ONLY. It may seem cold, but after a time we become friends .I sit back and watch them play the foreigners for drinks and more while they wink at me . They know I know the game.

If you bring a girl to your room tie her up before you go to sleep, I use hand cuffs on one leg then hide the key in the bathroom, best to connect one leg to something solid. It works great, but do not be cheap give her tip when you say good bye. Be up front when you meet her if she says no just move on. That way when you wake up she will be there and so will your possessions.

I went to the PHILIPPINES in the summer of 2012 as an 18 year old kid. I visited family that I never met before. I was in Manila and boracay. My cousin took me to his friends debut. After the debut my cousin asked his friends if he could drop us off at our hotel in Cubao and his friend didn't want to take us,because he was scared haha. We ended up taking the taxi and the driver told us to lock the door. Made so many memories that trip wish I could go back one day. Much love from the USA.

[@1990-t1j]

You speak much more sense than any of the young western traveller 'experts' on here.

[@pianocrisante90]

I don’t understand why Filipinos take advantage of the foreigners. Sometimes I think it’s the Filipinos who are racist, not the foreigners. The tourists that come to the Philippines are very honest people and they work very hard for their money. The locals should be very grateful that the tourists are bringing money into the economy and should also be treated with respect. In Australia where I am from nobody cares if you’re rich or poor it is never OK to rip people off. A country is more like a business. If tourists get ripped off, they will never come back again, and it will very likely destroy the Filipino economy. If I was a taxi driver in Australia and started ripping people off, I would lose my job in an instant. My message to all Filipinos is: “When you cheat other people you end up cheating yourselves,”

Great video. I live in B. Rodriguez near Mango Ave and even I never knew about it's bad nightlife. Then again I refuse to go out after 6pm because of snatchers and pickpockets etc. Of course if some guys are in bars after midnight then they are inviting trouble. One other thing - I take on average 2 taxis a day and have never had a problem with the driver not wanting to use the meter unlike in Manila where taxi drivers want to rip you off all the time. But I do hate the new ''variable meter charge'' which Grab just introduced last month since taking over Uber. Now they're a monopoly and they're starting to ''grab'' all our money huhu. They sure need consumer protection and noise pollution laws in Philippines. Love living here - talaga.

All foreigners who come here to live or just to visit, should always remember they are guests here, and they should always treat the locals with respect, and i find that when you do that, you normally get the same back..

My son is going to Marry a beautiful women from Iligan .He has visited three times and even though I worry about his safety she and he assures me it is safe. She tells me she never leaves him alone during the day, I just worry when he is at the Hotel where he is alone. Hopefully she will be coming here soon.

[@andreaberberich5970]

JJ CASH ok,first of all I would worry about my son if he went just to another state...that's what moms do! However I have no fear or doubt about the girl he has chosen to Marry she loved and respected by her family! She is Educated, works hard as an accountant comes from a " middle class family" they are not rich but they are not "dirt poor" and even if they were what the fuck does that matter?! she is loved dearly. Her brother and sister are also college educated! Her parents have no desire to come here! Her brother is a dentist in the city of Manila! Her sister is a teacher! With all do respect my son is not an idiot or some kind of loser! He too is educated and will not be taken advantage of! They met in Mactan beach when he was on leave and she was on vacation. They have been dating for 5 1/2 years! The only golden ticket is in the fantasy movie Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory! Her parents are very happy for her and my son. They are well versed in English. We communicate often! My whole reason for even commenting in the first place was just because it is a foreign country and like I said I worry but that has nothing to do with their relationship, what kind of person she is and her intentions on marring my son. We have that covered thank you very much!!

[@andreaberberich5970]

Anyone can be scammed anywhere and by anyone if you are ignorant. There are ways to make sure that ones assets are secured. You have to be smart! Neither my son or myself are worried about our money! Believe me!!

[@andreaberberich5970]

JJ CASH my son also tells me he is very aware of the dangers being in another country! He knows how to take care of himself!! No Maria is not worried about other women!!😂😂

[@andreaberberich5970]

JJ CASH Thank you! I appreciate that! 👍🏻😄

Thanks for info, you are very beautiful!! Is there a dating website? To slowly build trust with a girl that you are serious about before you go and meet girls randomly that you dont know, and dont trust. Thank you for reading.

FilipinoCupid is really good. Just be careful of scammers (which u wud find on any site).

[@danicoal]

I have been about to be ripped off with some taxi drivers even if I was together with my girlfriend who is also Cebuana. Amazing... And the taxi driver was begging my gf to allow him to rip me off since "you are a filipina and you must help me, he's just a foreigner who won't care about you when he's gone". So sad....

Good advice. I’ve been to the Philippines five times and didn’t hear anything like this the first time there. It’s a great place yet very easy to get your pocket picked loose your phone some sort of scam. Be careful, for me I don’t like the bars and night clubs just asking for trouble. Be aware of your surroundings and what’s going on.

[@DD-bn2mx]

the thing we learned was to never go alone. They will drug you and then rob you later. They drugged me twice, once in Hong Kong and the Philippines.

I’m married to a Flip-Flop (Filipino) We have been married for 10 years. We met in Hong Kong where we were both working. I’ve been to The Philippines many times. We have a house in the province where she is from. Once you get out of Manila and into the provinces you will possibly meet some of the kindest people on this planet. We have 3 boys and my wife (and her family) have never ripped me off. Why any foreigner would want to hang around Manila is beyond me. There is so much more to the Philippines than Jeepneys, pollution.and scams. The families in Manila in particular live in extreme poverty. The entire country is full of corruption . Mostly due to power struggles between factions. It is no wonder there are scammers and scams in that country. When you walk around Metro Manila and see families with young children sleeping out on the sidewalk on wooden boxes for a mattress it kind of puts things in perspective. Go figure.

[@guenterstahr4796]

The most important question and procedure still remains how to shape life with a young filipina later in retirement, so that she is safe and can feel good without being reminded of the life of other Filipinos or of the life of the past. She has to learn to manage her spouse's or friend's pension every month on an ongoing basis. Because a foreigner has a monthly pension that Filipina only knows from rich Filipinas in this form. There is no such thing in the provinces.

The funnest trip I had in the Philippines was in 2016, my first time as an adult. (Been there a couple of times as a child) Anyways, I did do the whole fixed meter cab fm Mactan airport to my hotel near in the heart of Cebu. I paid like 1,600 pesos. Oooppss. With a meter cab and heavy traffic, I paid 1,000p too much. But the cab driver was 1 of the coolest and funniest people I ever met. On the same trip, I did meet a bunch of little kids as me and my gf (now wife) were a little lost trying to find the zoo. We were walking all together and they even waited, for us, when we got done. They made sure we had a taxi on our way out. Gave them all the change I had which was like 300 or 400 pesos. I'm on vacation, I don't care if I overspend a little bit. Foreigners can afford paying a couple of extra dollars more than compared to a local. No need to tip when eating out at a restaurant too.
