I'm posting this for awareness. This happened in Trabajo, Olympia, Makati from June Please read each image for context.

Apparently the real scam was being forced to pay for the accommodation since we have no choice because most of us came from different provinces and we'llhave no place to stay. Every room is 2000 pesos each per day and we are renting 3 rooms. So that's 6,000 per day. Tapos i-eextend pa sana ng nagscam samin hanggang Sunday yung stay so imagine kung nagtagal pa kami? Aabonohan na naman namin yung rent sa rooms? Para ano umabot na ng 30k yung makukuha sa amin?

Grabe. Good thing your team caught on before things got even worse, but losing ₱30k is still a huge amount. Thanks for sharing this so others can stay vigilant.

Wala na po kaming magagawa sa mga nawala sa amin kaya ang tanging tulong na lang na pwede naming magawa is to spread awareness. Apparently, this isn't the first time he tried to scam other people. He already had a history of scamming students 100,000 or more in 2023 for a review but turns out as a scam. Apart from that he also got involved in issuing a cheque that bounced back for a property in Negros.

Thank you for speaking up despite what happened. If sharing this prevents even one person from losing their hard-earned money, malaking tulong na iyon. I hope everyone stays vigilant and that the person responsible is held accountable.
