So my advice and there are genuine people out there, is to tread carefully, and be very very careful. My own experience was to meet someone online then go to the philippines to meet her, and i had an enjoyable time, didnt get robbed or anything like that, but i was looking for a serious relationship, only for her to tell me when i got back to the Uk, that she was already married. No big deal some may say, but had i have known that beforehand i would not have agreed to meet her.
I think it's vital to put on your dating profile that you're well aware of scammers and that you're not prepared to send any money or interested in meeting married women. Logically, a scammer who reads this will probably move on to the next guy and not waste their time on you. Furthermore, a genuine woman will see you as serious.

Sorry to hear about your experience, Harry. Did you give her any money while you were over there?
