What I learned In life is that about 90% of the people in this world are Trash. The other 10% are really good people. That is what makes finding that 10% of the people extra special. In the Phillipines its like the wild west especially in the provinces. Often nobody knows who owns what land. Sometimes someone is selling the land and eventually the real owner is not even aware that the land is being sold. Family even scams its own family. Usually it is much better to just Rent. Her as a filipina needs to do her own research such as getting familiar with the people in the community and figure out who really owns the land and get the opinion of 3 different real estate agents who do not know each other so they can audit each other. Yes you will Pay more but it is much better than being scammed Tens of Thousands of dollars. Phillipines is a beautiful country but it is also full of parasites scammers.

@@linkinemerson8620 Yep... its not what happens, its how you respond, in kind.. God Bless

Good people like yourself are perhaps a little easier to scam, but not because you are stupid. You are a good hearted person, who would not trick or take advantage of someone - therefore it is easier for someone to take advantage of that. You extend courtesy, and it has been returned with deceit. You are now wiser, will not fall for the same trick, and will educate your friends to not do the same. You are trusting because you are trustworthy. But you are NOT stupid.

Did they knowingly show you someone else's property...if so that is fraud...doesn't sound like anyone is grieving...sounds like they are happily spending your money. You need to put your victim mentality to rest and fight back...I would also think that spending your money before the survey was complete is a huge red flag...don't be a victim

Well, she is at fault for not doing the proper due diligence. The other folks, it would appear, are criminally and/or civilly at fault.

She needs to call Raffy Tulfo

In the Philippines??? I'll bet that you are one of those 'regulation bad' fellows. This doesn't happen in the US because of . . .

@@northernbohemianrealist1412 because of legal law in the U.S. I had this happen to me and within a day my money was put back into escrow and the contract voided.

@@northernbohemianrealist1412 what does the philippines have anything to do with the USA? im sure they can be charged for fraud, dimwit

@@northernbohemianrealist1412 It doesn't happen in the US because there are clear legal consequences laid out in legislation, not regulation. I'm not arguing the merits of administrative regulations. Without it, the post WW2 infrastructure and prosperity wouldn't have been possible, and the US wouldn't be the economic powerhouse it is. Without it, hazardous food and products and environmental pollution would have ruined millions of lives. That being said, it's not regulation that provides the guardrails for real estate transactions. It's legislation.

So many scams/scamers and liars in the Phillipines.....but then again, the entire Globalist's corrupt and manipulated monetary system is the biggest scam.

scumbags is what they are , a bunch of lowlifes

Everyone dies eventually, we all have people close to us who have died, but that does not give anyone the right to take advantage of others.

I was thinking that too. I caught many pinays in lies about a dead relative or immediate family all because they were trying to get money. Not saying all. I'm just saying. I find it wild when other Filipinos tell me that they had this happen to them too.

So sorry for this 😢. You are not stupid. Things will work themselves out.

Omgosh.......thank you. Am too looking. That's an eye opener.

If the Pope was Filipino, I wouldn't lend him so much as $1. They'd sell their own Mother to make a few peso. Never come across such a corrupt people, and yet everyone thinks they're the nicest people on the planet 😂

Well at the family has shown their true colors and you haven't lost anything at this point

How high is ridiculously high?

@@factsmatter1262 anything over 750php per sqm is too high and i've seen many asking over 2000php and even up to 10k php per sqm. I've lived in some really nice houses and i am living in a decent house now and all have been on a paved barangay road but even with a paved road its still dificult for me to get out of my driveway with my Hilux which takes several minutes because I need to do a multi point turn just to get in and out of the gate. My wifes family wanted to sell us two lots side by side which are just over 800 sqm total and is a decent size and along a dirt road which is a right of way in Bohol and offering us the land for 120K PHP but they were becoming rude towards me when I said I wanted to do a servey and title check first so I told my wife that we are not going to buy and that I didn't want to hear about it again. They aren't direct family members so I don't talk to them and I just refuse to be scammed. I have already given my wifes mother and my wifes older sister more money than that to build their own houses after they were destroyed a few years ago in the super typhoon and after that is when other family members started asking for money and then the offers of buying land started. My wife tries to protect me from that as much as possible which is why we dont live near her family but there are a couple members of her family like her mother, two of her sisters and her brother who have never asked us for money but my wife still sends them some support every now and then which I am completely okay with.

Unfortunately that is the case - the story is also a lie

💯

I'm glad death dont do squat to me.

​@@user-tg3gq2df5gMost probably is.😊

Now that would be good advice if it was possible. You see the neighbor could sell land and they might have just got done the 8th grade. Most people that sell the land are not a real estate agency. That is why she made the comment that to have the land surveyed to show proof of deed. Then you know what you really would be buying. Yes she got Scammed A true real estate would have done all the work to be sure because then it would have been on them if something went wrong.

Claims are expensive and no guarantee it would be successful because the proper due diligence was never done.

@@danelionheart5881 I think you missed the fact that she stated that there were real estate agents involved, more than one. There are crooked real estate agents all over the world. The Philippines has strict laws against selling property not legally yours. Such fraudulent activities can lead to serious legal charges, including fraud or estafa, as these acts are criminal offenses under the country’s penal code. Proper documentation proving legitimate ownership is mandatory before initiating any sale. Before a real estate agent initiates selling property in the Philippines they must have the following documents: 1) Certified True Copy of the property title. 2) Tax Declaration and Real Estate Tax Clearance for the current year. 3) Certificate Authorizing Registration and official receipts from the Bureau of Internal Revenue. 4) If applicable, a Special Power of Attorney (if a representative is acting on your behalf). Those documents will clearly show where the property is located. The real estates agents took advantage of her in a bait and switch scam. They showed one property and in turned sold her something different. The so-called owner was in on the scam. She should definitely report them and sue them!!!

obviously you have never been to the philippines nor know the process of rules and laws and regulations in the philippines

100%.

Spot on, @FactFinderer. I don't know much about Filipino law, but I'm pretty sure fraud is illegal there as well.

I am a foreign, I leaned there is no law because foreigner. There will be no respect for her. 200,000 pesos is not enough to pay for respect.

@@IB4U2Cmeshe is not a foreigner

Was it even a real estate company though? From what I've understood, or misunderstood, about the Ph is that you don't have to be a real estate agent like in the US. Anybody can say they're the agent of the property, from what I've understood.

Or better yet..life is cheap in the Philippines..if ya know what I mean.

😂😂😂Gelay fuck someone else while you in UK. I have proof of it

A😂😂😂Gelay pusy is on fire

Maybe she can collaborate with Pea and her lawyer to resolve this.

She is a good lawyer. I've seen her info and she's very thorough.

Excellent idea! Her KZfaq channel is also very informative, as is this one (I can think of 3 or 4 òthers).

there should be an official neutral, 3rd party intermediary where the buyer "parks" the down payment $$$ to show intent to purchase.

@@Gizziiusa --> It's called an "Escrow" account.

@@3D6Space yeah, my mind was searching hard for the word tbh. ya, hold in escrow.

Good tips, but how are you making sure that the documents are not forged

@@cryptogaming9935 go to registry of deeds for Certification

@@cryptogaming9935 after you have the original certificate of title you can go to Land Records at the Courthouse and confirm the authenticity of the documents. Or, if you have the Legal Description of the property it is possible to verify ownership at Land Records.

Thank you!

@@cryptogaming9935 get a certified true copy of landtitle at the Registry of deeds , and secure also a real property tax , approved plan etc.

Lol. You don’t know the Philippine judicial system. It’s slow and expensive. A case like this could take ten years and even if she “wins” she would have to enforce the judgement and collect what she’s owed. The system is clogged with these kinds of cases. Even criminal cases, felonies, take years to resolve. So, a civil matter like 5is takes at least twice as long. Cheaper to hire a hit man

What advice would you give to avoid getting scammed like this in the Philippines?

​@@jamesnash6101 none. Scamming is built into the culture

Nothing will happen. There is a backlog of felonies and murders they haven’t even gotten to. A civil matter like this won’t even be seen, unless she’s part of a family that is connected

Police and NBI don't care, in the Philippines as an expat I never buy property, never will build a house, I only rent, Philippines and Filipinos are the most corrupt people I dont deal nor interact with them.

@@user-rd2em4zw1s I'm sure you're perfect, and have never made an error in judgement or trusted something in good faith that turned out being bad, that you hopefully learned something from... I wouldn't call you stupid unless you didn't learn anything. 🤷

​@@user-rd2em4zw1swhy would you troll someone's misfortune?

Yes money 💰 please obviously 😅

Sorry but she is stupid for not contracting a property lawyer before finding out. It’s all over the internet this basic rule because of all the scammers. Just a stupid decision to try to save money. I do feel sorry for her tho.

It's not a complicated scam! She was shown a lot which wasn't the titled lot. If she herself had got a surveyor to check out the title land, which anyone would, she would have realised straight away

"and i dought her son even died "..maybe you doubt her?

i doubt she had a son

name and shame is the way to go

Lol. Okay. 😂

she feels stupid because she is from PH and should have known better since everything there has a HUGE chance of being a scam.

​@@heykuckma you look a bit older so you will find out soon if that invisible man is real or not haha.

Exactly what I was thinking 🤔

solid advice, positive message

Yes, this is solid advice. Even banks make the same mistake. I know because I went to a bank to ask for advice about purchasing foreclosed properties and they told me they once made the mistake of paying for a different lot than the one that was showed them. Due diligence is very important. They told me that the first step is to always go to the Assessors Office to check the block and lot numbers and the surveyor's maps. And then to go to the property and try to locate it. Don't let this mistake discourage you.

Yes, the Filipino way. Fight fire with fire.

"Sleeping with the Fishes"

😂

This is TRUE and not enough people know about that. Filipinos who cannot afford lawyers and surveys often trade amongst each other using tax declarations and that can work out for them but after a wealthy person anchors onto the land by building a house, the relatives of the seller will come out oi the woodwork like cockroaches demanding payment because they have legitimate claims, and you have no title.

they scam too

Wise words, legal battles prevent you from moving on, and swallow money.

And the next naive good people will fell in the same trap. Not stopping that bad evils is very selfish

Good for you. And yes I agree. It is a good practice to get a reputable lawyer to help you out. The only thing I would wish to add is that assuming you are a foreigner, you wouldn't be allowed to buy land in the Philippines in the first place. That is reserved for Filipinos alone, by the Philippine Constitution. (Yes, while there may be exceptions to that rule, the exceptions are strictly applied and the rule is that only Filipinos can own land here) Other than that, you are quite correct. Have a great day/night ahead.

@@Cow_JuiceMost all foreigners know that already.

@@NoComplience Yes I agree with you to some extent. I do believe some do know that fact. But you'd be surprised. Some honestly don't know. If you were to find one of Rubeauti's more recent vid (which she titled "Foreigners can own land in the Philippines?!") and see the reactions of some of the people who reacted (who I assume to be foreigners), you'd see that there are still some who operate under the mistaken notion that they can buy land here.

Yes that’s why lawyer is very important cause she will check everything in the capitol office for the ownership. So sad for her she is the victim of those scam people. If they don’t provide survey, one of my way to know is get the survey to check and put muhon on the area, I don’t care if I will pay. I just want to make sure where are the boundaries, so that I know what I’m buying. It’s only 5k for survey and show to the lawyer for verification.

Just dont do it!

Good luck and you better have a great lawyer to watch your back! Do not trust anyone you don’t really really really know!

Dude : you're a foreigner, you're not allowed to buy land in the Philippines , the only thing you can really buy is a condo . You can let your Philippine girlfriend, or wife buy the land, but at anytime, or any argument, she can boot you off that land, just saying learn for yourself . And I did catch the superficial racist remark ! So you want to retire. and live in the Philippines, but you don't trust the Philippine people . Kind of an oxymoron isn't it !

@@thomaswilson5966 WTF? I’m well aware of the laws in the Philippines. Did you see the woman in the pic with me? There are ways (woman owns land, you own the residence on the land). Plus, I’ve never trusted anyone in my life as much as I trust my fiance. I would trust her with my life, much less my money. As far as racism… shut the hell up. I didn’t say I don’t trust the Philippine people. I said Ive had many try to scam me. A not-so-subtle difference. Again, look at my picture. The fact that many Filipino will try to take advantage of white people isnt racist, it’s a fact. It’s an impoverished nation, for the most part. Go to Manila, act like a first time tourist who has know idea about the conversion rate and value of their money (php). I had cabbies, trike drivers, and shop owners all try to take advantage of me and rip me off and charge me more than the actual fare.

@@jackmeloff3335 What I have is the most amazing woman I’ve ever met in my entire life. She’s the most kind, sweet, loving, honest, and caring woman I’ve ever met. I’ve NEVER trusted anyone 100%, but she’s, by far, the closest.

Hahaha..you dont live here do you..

@maxxd4119 yes I do live in Philippines

@maxxd4119 and I have attorney to handle all I do like land purchases or real-estate matters.

@maxxd4119 so your a scammer I see your one that prays on people cause you lazy to work.

​@user-rd2em4zw1s Are you sure this isn't a sob story to get more money from subscribers 🤔. Remember Filipinas are the world's best liers.
