I think this girl and possibly extended family had a great time while your son was with them having treats, eating at JollieBee and the like, but time for reality now. Everything mentioned by our members above are warnings for your son and advice on ways to find the truth. No one can be so accident prone can they? Or fall ill and pregnant?? Did he use protection???

Right now he must STOP any sending of money and see the reaction from her. If she starts acting like a brat and stops communication with him then this will tell it's own story. Maybe she has 'other' options in her phone contacts too ... who knows?

Please tell your son to harden up to the fact that this girl is 99% stringing him along. The signs are right in front of you all.

Good luck
As one of them that has been through this at a great financial and emotional cost:
I am sure hoping he is not being scammed and thoughts that someone who loves us would not do it to us will be his biggest hope, and of course not wanting to distrust her.

I do not have a answer but it does not look good.
