    Scammers, being scammed??

    I am not sure if this subject has been covered but there seems to be a lot of scammers out there in the Philippines trying their best to get money from lonely vunerable guys who are looking for love so i guess not sending money until you meet is a must.

    I was looking through a list of scammers and i actually found one of the photos of the women being used is one of the photos in the Gallery here which was very surprising as i am sure the member on here who posted it has no idea it was being used..

    Very interesting...

    Could you send me the links privately, please?

    Or any other moderator.

    On a Filipino dating site they have a section on scammers and there are alot on there. It is just to let people know to be careful in case one of them tries to scam again.

    I am not saying all Filipinas are like that as that would be stupid as i know most of them are genuine women.

    I only highlighted the fact that a scammer was using one of photos that is on here to let the person know that their photo is being used but i am not sure how to go about this and if it needs to be done privately so that is why i have not mentioned the member who owns the photo yet..

    We don't want a witch hunt and accusations on the forum.

    Everyone is innocent until proven guilty, it could be an innocent mistake, in which case it will be forgotten and buried in the annals of history

    If it is not, it will be in the hands of admin to deal with as he sees fit.

    It seems that if any member has scammed on this site then they are banned but their profile is put on a list of scammers.

    There must be 1000+ on this site so i am sure a lot of guys are out of pocket..

    You're right! You don't need to send money until you meet her. That is always the advise given to readers and members of this forum.
    Scammers are everywhere so we really need to be careful. If you send money, you may be a loser in the end

    If she's in our Gallery then we are interested to know

    Hi guys, I am a newbie and I am a Filipina and I live here in Manila, Philippines.

    I am speaking on behalf of all the true Filipina. I have been a victim by those people who enjoys "stereotyping". I am not saying you cannot find scammers here in the Philippines. Yes, unfortunately we have. What I am saying is, please do not think that all Filipinas are up to what's in your pocket.

    If somebody (no matter how good looking) asks for your money, please don't give her. Particularly, if you don't even know her. Or else, you'll end up posting in forums, telling people that you were scammed (by a Filipina). Stop playing 5tup*d. You are old enough to know if you are being abused or not.
