Not at all jedc143. I definitely do appreciate your comments and more so the fact you are straight forward with me. Please accept my apologies for missing you out, and please do keep posting.
I promise I won't forget you again! :-)
It was for a tourist visa and she claimed she was using an agency to help her with the visa! There were various reasons why she "had" to use the agency. I couldn't really argue with her as, like she kept telling me, things are done differently in the philippines!
I hate to say this but you have been scammed.Originally Posted by DaveUK
Sorry mate, but all the signs are there.
I sincerely hope to be wrong in assuming that, but I feel the worst has happened.
Time to move on, if she was bothered at all she would text you at least once every day, or be there when you try to phone.
It is impossible to change the flight you booked or have it refunded, so my suggestion is to go anyway, and treat it as a holiday somewhere out of the beaten track. It will dwarf tenerife or Ibiza....
Dave, my opinion is why don't you come to the Phils. and meet her here? ...in that way most of the questions in your mind will be answered....just make sure you will be so observant and smart enough to determine what are the truth and lies. If you get to know where she lives here, her family and kids, friends, the hospitals she had been and the kind of life she is living here then I'm sure you can come up with a sound decision...mind over heart or heart over mind....it's all up to you.
But I really wish she's not scamming you. I feel so ashamed for a fellow filipina doing things to please a foreigner just for money and nothing more. I know you are still hopeful but I suggest you better try to control your feelings for her so you won't be blinded by her sweetness.
Goodluck Dave and I really wish you all the best!
Agencies rip-off Filipino's all the time, and no need for them when it comes to visa's.
For every Filipina that scams, you have 1000 beautiful women who will love you for who you are.
If this doesn't work out, you'll have learnt from it, and like gambling, mistakes cost money......I know

Very wise words from the boss as usual. We've all been there and done it... and learned.Agencies rip-off Filipino's all the time, and no need for them when it comes to visa's.
For every Filipina that scams, you have 1000 beautiful women who will love you for who you are.
If this doesn't work out, you'll have learnt from it, and like gambling, mistakes cost money......I knowTake a look the Filipina posters on here and learn... there are some good girls (and one very special one.. winks @ jedc143)
Well, I've just got home and found no txt's on my filipino mobile! I've just text her asking her to let me know she's ok, just to see what happens. But as I've said before, I'm not holding my breath!
You can check If the agencies are genuine to POEA.gov.ph
Not an expert, I only try to help.
I already checked the agency out cheers. Admittedly I only did that after I'd sent her the money, but they have a website and have a license to operate according to the government website.
When I sent the money via Western Union, Anna asked me to put it to the attention of another person. She claimed it was the name of the agent at the agency who the money was for. I was thinking of phoning the ageny when they open tomorrow to ask for this woman to see if she exists.
I know there are some good girls on here. Unfortunately though, if it does turn out I've been scammed, it's going to take me quite a while to get over her as I fell for her completely! Something I've never done with any woman, no matter where they are from! :-(
My flights however are already booked to the Philippines which is something that has annoyed me slightly. Right now, if things are over between me and Anna, I don't really feel like using the flights! However, thanks to this website, I'm hoping I might be able to make friends with someone (or some people) on here that I could maybe meet up if I do use the flights.
Change the flight and spend a few days in HK or Singapore.
Keith - Administrator
Can't change the flight unfortunately! It's a use it or lose it! I did originally try to change it for HK a while ago, but can't do it! :-(
hello dave,
u said that when u check her no. it was on currently roaming..so its means shes out of the philippines...u cant really call cel on roaming but u can send text or she can recvd text msgs too..so if u sent msgs to that number im sure she reads it all.seems she really avoiding you...when is ur scheduled flight to the [philippines?
Yeah, I know she's receiving the texts so I know she's ignoring them which is frustrating, but I guess I'll have to accept!
I'm scheduled to arrive in the Philippines on April 27th, leaving on May 11th!
So you have time to join FH or FK and find another one.
hi dave,
where in the philippines u will go? from where in the phil is ur gf?
if you're sure she is working in HK again, just call the mamasan on the bar's land line.
She says she is from the Tarlac province. But an address she gave me to post her something is in Rizal?
If I came to the Philippines without seeing her, I have no idea where I'd go!
give her within 15 more days,if she still dont get in touch with you better find another girl..shes not worth if ever...at least still early that u found her not a sincere one,charged it to experience. just be aware next time...
Aye, I will cheers. I'm going to see how it goes for now, but I'm working on the basis she's scammed me and I'm trying to move on. Just finding it extremely difficult! :-(
Where exactly are you going? Plenty on here who could maybe chaperon you.
Keith - Administrator
if u want to go davao i can help someone to be ur chaperone there..a sincere one..who knows,maybe somebody there destined for you.lol...
lol Thanks for your offer. I may take you up on that if that's ok :-)
I'll see how it goes though over the next week or two and then make a decision. As much as I think Anna has gone, I don't want to be too hasty, just in case!
yeah,give her a little more chance,,,if ever she replies again try to analyse too if what she said is reasonable..goodluck,give update.lol....
Will do. And thanks again for the offer! :-)
Hah hah! Cheers mate. Yeah, I'm pretty sure I've been scammed as well. But I knew that was a possibility when I lent her the money, and was exactly why I did lend her the money now, so I would know either way.
If she does get back in contact with me soon and has some kind of explanation, I admit, I will roll with it, but only long enough so that I can meet up with her in the Philippines and have my say without giving her the chance to put a phone down on me!
hi dave has i said in my first post to you its time to move on she is a scammer she might have a 100 men sending her money its a good business for her all the time you been piss assing around with this one you could have found a true one and be meeting her when you fly out there interview you get one if you stay with this one you will never trust her and a relationship is built on trust and you have none of that
I hear you mate. But one thing this whole thing has taught me is I'm not sure I could do another long distance relationship! I mean, I know Anna has messed me around, but when things appeared to be running great, not having her near me was a killer! I'm not sure I want to open myself up to something like that again, even if I knew the woman was genuine!
So if we'd all jumped ship the minute we came across someone dishonest... most of us wouldn't be here now. Learn, move on.... you still have time to find a good one before your flight.
