HIDE THAT MONEY!

Filipino netizens gave a much needed heads up to a foreigner that plans to visit the Philippines to see his Filipina girlfriend for the first time.

An anonymous foreigner under the username jeankjean posted this statement last Wednesday, January 27, on Reddit, a social news website.

The man was asking people for their tips about his impending visit to the Philippines. He explained that this will be his first meeting with his girlfriend of 5 months and that he was going to stay at their place in Mindanao. He then added that he was told to take out his girlfriend’s family to dinners so he was planning to bring some extra cash with him.

Upon reading this post, netizens were quick to warn him about the possible dangers of his visit to the country. Netizens claim that there are red flags all over the foreigner’s situation and that he should secure his money as well as meet his girlfriend alone in a much safer place.

Here are some of the responses that the foreigner received.

After getting some sage advice from Filipino netizens, the foreigner considered what they had to say and posted this response. And again, Filipinos showed their concern by reminding him that this might possibly be a scam. Here are some of the advice he got after the update.

The story of a Filipina pretending to be living with his brother and niece isn’t so new after all.
