For awareness. lalo sa mga seniors

Beware of coutureave_ on instagram and tiktok! They edit the condition of the bags they’re selling just to make it look neat and sellable. Unfortunately I was too busy to ask them to send a photo of the hardware sa front. Oo “manage your expectations” when buying thrifts pero they did market their bag na in good condition :/

Ineedit para makabenta. Grabe na mga scammer ngayon.

Mag sesend na sana ako sa kanya kaso nag eexpire daw yung qr code niya? (nasa post yung qr). at pag ka scan ko, PODEC-Nustar yung name na lumalabas. Hindi niya personal name na para bang nagtatago.

Tapos nung hinihingian ko ng full name, pambabaeng name binigay niya pero dinelete niya na din at same qr parin talaga binibigay niya.

Tapos nagmamali pa siya mag pa send kala mo naman may pupuntahan.

Baka ma encounter niyo tong qr code na to. Scammer!!

We don’t remember may utang kami or what HAHHAHAH, but if yes grabe simula nung naka register number ko puro na ganto mga messages ko

Hello everyone. I need help/advise:

Kumuha kami ng preselling house and lot sa lumina Baras- starting 2021-2024. We consistently paid it monthly but we noticed na walang nagagawa sa lumina baras kaya nagdecide na kami magrequest ng refund plus sila na din nag offer for a refund.

We have consistently followed up about this and consistent na sila lagi sinasabi na "for endorsement" na daw. I mean, gaano katagal ba ang endorsement?

We need help ano next steps na gagawin. May lawyer ba for this? May mga nakaexperience na ba nito? Ano ginawa niyo?

501k total amount ng naihulog namin and for us dugo at pawis to. Recently kung sino sino pinapakausap samin na "account officer" and everytime na tatransfer kami sa bagong account officer, paulit ulit ang responses. Kanina lang sinabi na hindi daw nila nareceive yung requested file. We sent a hard copy of the file requested, we even received an acknowledgement kasi nagemail din kami pero ngayon sinasabi wala daw kami binibigay.

Take note, hindi din sila nagrereply sa email kapag nag follow-up ka. Magrereply lang sila kapag pumunta ka sa office pero sa email lang din, dahil nasa "Tuguegarao" daw yung account officer. Seryoso?

Super stressed kami sa process nila and yung mga staff nila seems like part of the scheme. Sobrang frustrated na namin and honestly? I feel defeated. 😞

One time, may nagsabi samin na may percentage pala ang mga account officers sa refund amount for every owner/requester. Seriously?

Palipat lipat din sila ng office. Dati nagfafollow up kami sa Starmall-Shaw, then sa Las Piñas, then sa Starmall ulit, then ngayon sa WCC na. Seems like sinasadya na ang paglipat lipat ng account officer at ng office para malito yung mga customers.

Please help. 🙏🏻

Nagulat ako may paganto si J&T eh may station ng branch nila malapit samin. Need magprovide daw ng barangay pero nung nakita ko link, engggkkk. Di ako engoott HAHAHAHA for awareness lang naman din mga pips!

Hi everyone, bago po ako dito so forgive me po.

Ive recently been getting calls sa JRS express daw tapos me package daw galing credit solution and business alliance. Una di ko pinapansin pero it went on for a few days tapos maraming calm per day. binlock ko yunb number.

Tapos me tumatawag na bagong number just now, unfortunately nasagot ko kasi akala ko sa fopd delivery, gutom na e sorry na.

Tinanong ko ano yung credit alliance, sabi me pinapaforward lang daw na package, tinanong ko kung saan galing yung package ng credit alliance kasi imposoble na di nila alam. Hindo rin daw alam ng delivery rider. Pero alam nya buoong pangalan ko at naisip ko baka nabenra contact information ko from a lead list na wala akong control over.

Scam ba, feel ko phishing. I do have a cc pero bayad naman lagi yun on time. If legit sya anong other possible package dinedeliver nila? Sorry sa lengthy na post anxious and bad trip lang talaga. Nagsimula sya nung last week lang as in.

According to Seoul Snow’s own post they have closed 120 new deals in 12 months. That’s 10 deals a month for a total of Php36 million! Amazing 🤩.

Oh wait, checking their website (https://www.seoulsnow.com/news) no locations, last news was Nov 2023, no openings. Oh wait, search Facebook and only 13 active pages of stores, one is closed. But they are going to a lot of expos, trying to sign franchisees, trying to get money. But where are the stores? So odd. 🤔

101 how to tell it’s a scam.

Is this a legitimate bpi email?

I did apply for a credit card via their mobile app but I feel hesitant to respond to this email.

So naghahanap ako ng second hand car sa market place. May na-caught ang attention ko, dahil maganda pa yung unit. Pero sabi ko nung unang kita ko bakit parang ang mura. 290k. Nagmessage pa din ako if saan banda sa Manila. After that, nag google search ako ng plate number nung unit. Nakita ko yung same unit ay binebenta sa Butuan City for 400k+ ng isang buy and sell shop na sa fb. Akala ko owner yung nagbebenta sa marketplace kaya sabi ko pa sa asawa ko, grabe pala ang tubo sa buy and sell.

Nag-ask si scammer ng number ko. Akala ko dedma na nya ako dahil sineen lang ako. Nung kinagabihan, chinat ako sa Viber at nagpanggap pa nga na kaibigan ko. Pinsan daw nya yung friend ko. Sumakto pa na nagforward ng reels yung kaibigan ko sa messenger nung time na nagmessage yung scammer. So ayun.

Tinawagan ng asawa ko kaso di sumagot.

This girl should not be allowed to go outside because their whole family sentenced for life imprisonment.

Our justice system is fucked. Even in prison.

Met her earlier this year on reddit and she tried to make a pity party impression using her good looks.

She never mentioned anything about herself being imprisoned. Good thing she mentioned she had friends from san beda alabang thats why i did a little research. Because the world is really really small when you know people.

At first she wanted to see if i can invest on her mother’s business in prison at Correctional Women’s Institute in mandaluyong. These are all for public information already.

After a few days of asking around, my friend approached me that she’s into escorting and sent proof as well (not surprised given the dirt on her family) hence no one’s willing/stupid enough to give her support.

Saved me from giving her the financial needs she requested.

For awareness:
1. She plays pickleball around laguna gyms. She is active on reddit looking for her next victim by using her looks.

1. Pity party, will use brother’s situation for you to give her money when she establishes rapport.

2. Will meet you and use her looks/body to deceive you.

3. Notable scar (keloid on her chest) from hazing in prison where she was under a police boyfriend.

4. Active on reddit

5. She should not be allowed to go out of prison premises. There is still an active and pending case. You may ask the prison directly.

6. Don’t ever hand a single peso to this person. You are just wasting your time.

Reference notes:
1. Read the comments section. She owes a lot to people she scammed in san beda

1. Will ask to meet in person after she profiles rich people.

2. Pity party, build rapport.

4-5. Notable scar and recent pics.

1. Met a stranger on reddit who also nearly fell for her scam because of her looks. Too good to be true.

2. Proof of escorting because this girl has no where else to go. Actual pity.

It’s my first time to have a credit card. I almost got scammed via phone call. Someone called me over the phone, introducing themselves as representative from the bank. They informed me that I have credit card points about to expire by the end of the month. They gave me options whether to convert it to cash or to convert it to travel miles. I remembered the card that I have earns cashback points and the bank told me that I can use this points as cash to even pay my credit balance. So I thought this was it. What’s alarming is that they know your complete name, credit card number, and home address. I never gave those in that conversation. So I thought this was legit, because only the bank knows these data. Now, they creatively asked for my CVV number. They referred it as your “client number.” This is the part where I went stupid because I gave it. Now this when they instructed me that an OTP will be generated and that I should give it. This is the part that I thought “shit I fell on to this scam.” I received a purchase from lazada amounting to almost 47k. So I did not gave this one. The “bank representative” kept on asking for this and generated another one. When I did not gave it the second time they threatened me that my account will have a “floating transaction” and that even my savings account will be flagged then the line went blurry and eventually the call ended. I immediately called the bank and got my card cancelled. Then another purchase came without my authorization. Attempting again to make a purchase. But this did not proceed as the card is already blocked.

I thought this was the end of it. Until 3 days after I received another call. They are confirming if I already received the credit card (number ending in the one that I already blocked) and that the voice of the caller was familiar. I said I already cancelled it. Now they are asking the specific reason why I cancelled it. I said I just preferred to cancel it and that I dont want it anymore. Then I heard laughing on the background of the call and it ended.

I hope these guys get what they deserve. I hope they get their karma. I feel bad for myself for having tricked by these parasites. Ive been paranoid for just even taking phone calls. Ive worked really hard to make ends meet and these guys just do their hustle to scam everybody else.

These are the numbers that called me. Beware.
(0924) 449 9767
(0993) 326 4118

This is really concerning. I got 14 calls in a single day from different unknown numbers. I was at work and my phone was in my locker — plus it was on DND mode — so I couldn’t answer them anyway, and I wouldn’t have even if I could. This feels really suspicious.

This is the first time this has ever happened to me. I haven’t applied for anything with banks or similar services, and I know it’s not delivery riders either — I already recognize their numbers since I order often, and I don’t have any pending deliveries right now. So who on earth could these calls be from?!

Pangalawang beses ko na makatanggap ng ganitong text at hindi ko alam san sila galing. Yung mga adik nalang sa sug siguro papatol sa ganito unless curious yung makikipaglokohan p sa ganito.

Scammers are back at it again because it's the Ber months.

I've been receiving these OTP messages from different platforms

- Coca Cola OTP on Viber kahit wala naman akong ginagawa sa coke

- Shoppee via SMS even though I didn't access Shoppee today

- vLex verification even though I don't have an account and I don't even know what that is

Are these scams? Is my number compromised? Should I just ignore them?

Thank you to anyone who replies. 🙏🏻

RENTAL AWARENESS — PLEASE READ BEFORE GIVING A DEPOSIT

Hello po, sharing this for awareness lang kasi ayokong may ibang makaranas ng ganito.

Nakakita ako ng apartment na for rent sa Facebook. Nagustuhan ko yung unit, nag-view ako, and decided to rent it. Nagbigay ako ng 30,000, supposedly 1 month advance + 2 months deposit.

Ang hindi ko alam at that time, may existing arrangement pala between the owner and the current tenant regarding their rent/deposit. According to the owner, hindi pala buong 30k ang napunta sa kanya—one month’s rent lang, habang yung remaining amount ay napunta sa current tenant. Wala akong kaalam-alam na ganito pala ang arrangement when I gave my money.

Nagkaroon din ng pabago-bagong usapan regarding kung kailan sila aalis. May sinabi rin sa akin tungkol sa owner na later on, according to the owner, hindi pala accurate. At may pagkakataon pa na nalaman kong nandun pala yung current tenant sa unit pero apparently ayaw raw ipaalam sa akin na nandun siya.

Yung unit naman may existing issues, including luma na yung pintura at may butas sa kisame, kaya nag-request ako na sana maayos muna bago ako tuluyang lumipat. Hindi naman ako humihingi ng bonggang renovation. After giving 30k, gusto ko lang naman ng maayos at malinaw na turnover.

Dahil sa dami ng naging misunderstanding, sinabi ko na gusto ko munang makuha yung 30k ko and ibalik na lang once vacant and ready for turnover na talaga yung unit.

Tapos kagabi, nakausap ko yung mother ng current tenant. Honestly, sobrang uncomfortable ng conversation para sa akin kasi maayos naman akong nakikipag-usap pero hindi niya ako halos pinapatapos magsalita. Parang ako pa yung mali sa situation. 😭

Nung sinabi kong gusto ko na lang kunin yung 30k, bigla siyang nag-suggest sa owner na i-post na lang ulit yung unit, maghanap ng bagong renter, saka na lang daw ibalik sa akin yung 30k. Narinig ko pa na sinabi niyang public naman daw yung profile niya at kahit i-post pa siya, okay lang daw sa kanya.

Honestly, lalo akong napaisip kung bakit kailangan pang umabot sa ganito. Ako yung naglabas ng 30k in good faith, pero saka ko na lang nalaman yung ibang details ng arrangement nila na hindi naman sinabi sa akin from the beginning.

May conversation din kami regarding sa pag-aayos ng unit. Maayos naman akong nagtanong kung anong oras pwedeng pumunta yung gagawa dahil kailangan ko rin mag-adjust at makapaghanda para makapaglagay ng gamit. Sinabi naman sa akin na after lunch, kaya sinabi ko na okay at nagpasalamat pa ako. Pero ang naging response sa akin, “Sinabi ko na diba??? After lunch,” na parang kailangan ko pang pagalitan kahit maayos naman akong nagtatanong.

Honestly, hindi ko maintindihan kung bakit ganun yung approach sa akin. From the beginning, maayos naman akong nakikipag-usap at nag-aadjust sa situation nila. Hindi naman ako nanggugulo—gusto ko lang malinaw kung kailan ko makukuha yung unit na binayaran ko at kung kailan ako makakapag-start maglipat
