Am I being scammed?

Agreed. You will see and experience the real Philippines.

Prior to Elsa and I getting married in 2004, I stayed at her parents' place in Tacloban, and their house was basically 1 giant room divided into 4 partitions with a kitchen, bathroom, bedroom and lounge. 6 others were also staying in this tiny building, there were no windows and nearly every night we had "brownout". I didn't complain and I was totally humbled by the whole experience.

I had a brownout. But it was because I had a bad egg. And Rob? How many times did cockroaches wake you in the night. They are noisy things.

Oh, we had a few, but I remember the mozzies more than anything else, they had a thing about Welsh blood
