Scam is not all over Asia it's also in Europe so as Western world

Scam 1 - Make sure it's a girl, and don't get a big surprise.

Good advices and tips for avoiding most of the rip offs🤔😎Thank you for sharing Jay🙂👍!!!

Not really a scam, but if you book a tour where a driver takes you around to different tourist sites, double check if your tour rate includes entry to those places you're visiting or if you need to pay for it yourself.

Appreciate the info brother love the channel keep the videos coming

WOW! So well described and balanced. Thanks!

Very helpful thank u!

Thanks Jay for being real

Thanks !for the good advice .You have to b careful anywhere.

Thank you for sharing.

Thanks Jay!

Good tips Jaycation. I liked getting the fake jerseys and shirts. And good advice on not getting fake shoes since that could actually hurt your feet.. Also, I never thought about the drinks and how it could get spiked. Very valuable information all around. Although if the food looked good and the vendor may not be licensed. I might just take a chance. Lol. But I can say that you at least warned us😁Glad you have safe travels in 🇵🇭

Thank you for the advice, I really enjoyed your video, you are a cool cat.

Well done, appreciate you. What are the Philippines' popular dating apps and websites, please?

Good video thanks for your advice. You reference a lot from the USA that I did not understand as I don't live there.

great video

Scams not only happened to the foreigner but to the local either. It is particularly if they notice you look like an ignorant person coming from the province.

You give the best advice kababayan. Some of these foreigner vloggers are dishonest and telling everybody that Philippines is safe and honest but its a click bate.

What’s up my Freind 🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽

The hand scale for the luggage is a new one for me. I didn't even know that thing existed. I just ordered one from aliexpress. Great info.

I learned my lesson regarding the weigh of my bags, and had to pay, $120 for 14 pounds over, got one of these luggage scales, now, before i head to the airport, i already know that is 50 pounds even, in each one, regards from Boston MA!

Full support and best regards/Ned👍👏👍

Also you don’t use your credit card…always use cash…..cuz they can swipe more the once and you are gonna be dealing with headache with the bank if you need to dispute it and having your CC cancelled

I thought you were rapping Parokya ni Edgar 🤣

Thanks for the scam info, even our own kababayans or balikbayan filipinos get scammed in the Philippines, especially the airport in Manila. That's the biggest scam airport there.

Great tips but these scams are everywhere, not just in the Philippines

Expat will realized after.....they married a whole family !!!!

It seems like *many* of the scams you discussed are specific to or quite prevalent in the Philippines! Like, what ex-pat from an Asian country comes to North America looking for a wife? 😆

There are two more scams at airports in the Philippines that i know of, and 2 others in the streets: 1. When you have your bags at the x-ray, a guy will steal your bag as it comes out of the x-ray machine, if you're not looking, and quickly walk away. Airport cameras will suddenly not work, or will take a week before they are shown to you. 2. Tanim-Bala. Airport officials will put/plant a bullet in your bag, and flag you. They'll arrest you and ask you for alot of money to let you go free and not go to jail for carrying bullets that they have planted. 3. There are cops that will plant a packet of meth inside your car when you open the window (they'll just chuck it in). And they'll inspect your car and find that packet of meth that they put inside your car, and ask for a lot of money in exchange for letting you go. 4. Kidnapping cases for rich foreigners and businessmen spike up months before elections.. i'm not saying that corrupt officials kidnap rich foreigners and businessmen to extort money from them so that the corrupt officials have money to run for elections, but yeah :) Also, RCBC Massacre, when corrupt officials send their goons to rob a bank so that they have money to burn for elections :)

Thanks for the heads up on scams. Alot is true anywhere you go, even your own hometown. Just use some common sense.

Party like a rockstar

Philippines and scams should be synonyms.

❤️❤️❤️🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭💯💯💯

Used the Grab app to make sure the price was the price for the taxi..no surprises there with that. Air Asia really tried to suck money out of me..but it's still cheap compared to the US.

Our mannerisms sticks out no matter what you do there. Luckily our driver was a friend of ours & watched out for us

Sound like your back home?

Airport scam is airports say bags are to heavy . Well I went thou 5 airports b4 i got to Manila so my bags were not over weight in the other airports . I told them i am not paying for over weight charges . And i can prove this . with all 5 airports i been thou already

first

There's also Wells Fargo, Bank of America and major banks in Manila. You can access your money there with the peace of mind.

Relationship scams can work for Men as well, I’ve been getting a lot of Filipino men asking for money

Scan 12 - From my experience, never give money to beggars, no matter who they are. Most of the time beggars work for crimanal operations, the poor never get to keep it. It is OK to buy them food if they say their hungry though. One time on the last night there I used the last of my pesos to buy a women with a little boy a meal. Am sure they won't take that burger 🍔 back to the crooks they deal with.

28 pounds, that’s not even a kilo… Jay’s conversion is way off 😂😂😂. Kidding kidding😁

I didn't know this until a few years back but using and saying the word "gyp" is a racial derogatory slur. Took me a while to remove it from my vocabulary like other words but I did. Is that being PC? Yes. Does that mean society is getting soft. No. It just means we're all being more aware or aka woke. And id rather be woke then asleep. I'm sure you didn't know, like i didn't know and I'm sure you don't want to offend anyone.

Money money money, money money money. Almost all these blogs end up discussing money. Her, family, friends, allowance, etc. When you get married and settle down half is hers. So why discuss it. You should be asking her if you can buy a new bike. It's "your" both of the $$. After "money" the second most used word is "give". The real activity should be "share", not "give" Yes I'm jealous. Wish I had same thing after loosing wife when I was 67 and in great shape. 82 now with cancer so a little late. Bank account full and nothing to spend it on. If I had the energy and time left I would spend $10,000 (american) a month to have such a young beautiful girl rubbing my shoulder. Well, maybe I should give it a go. Can't take it with me!

I'm filipino and I just prefer to avoid the Philippines. You should check out Macau if you get a chance. I heard a lot of Tagalog over there. Macau will be just like Las Vegas but fancier. The Wynn, Venetian and MGM are in Macau.

Are there men that really spend money on women. Why would a man do this. No woman is worth this. Am I missing something. I don't get why a man would spend money on a woman, just not worth it.

This guy talks like the scams he mentioned happens only in Manila, Philippines. This scams are all over the world. He should have titled this vlog as "Scams, Rip Offs & Tourist Traps when Travelling"

No offense for this content, it's obvious since the Philippines is still a developing country, sadly POVERTY is virtually evident in the Philippines society that's why scams, rip-off and even extortion is rampant everywhere even in tourists destination. That's my social observation, no offense to Pinoys seeing this✌✌✌

I've lived here in the Philippines for 13 years and moved from America when I was 35. I have never experienced a problem listed here. Here is what I suggest for foreigners. Most of all, BE NICE ALWAYS. People will never be rude to you like in the States. Things just are different here so learn to adjust. Learn there is much more to the Philippines than Manila and tours. Learn to not get angry or control it at lease. Learn to talk quietly and be patient above all. I have been married now in the Philippines for 10 years and we live in rural Bicol (the bondoks) Her family is important to you and how you interact with family and neighbors define your reputation. As a foreigner you should care a lot about your reputation. So just be good, easy on drinking like an idiot and treat everyone with respect. Remember there is a language difference and be patient of that.

Scam talaga mga kalesa dahil nag punta kami dyan sa intramuros sasakay sana kami ng kalesa sabihin ba kami 1k daw

Thanks Jay!
