Scamming has been going on for so long, but with technology, methods change
Most scammer pretend to be in Manila while sitting in Mindanao.
Then the DP scam, down payment.
Supposedly to protect FL, as some guys fly aeroplane
But think this way, you are the buyer, unless you are desperate for a fuck, don't let them fix terms like proof of hotel room, real name etc. (If you trust escort asking all that, good for you, but I seen escort raids go after client also - for shakedown, because prostitution is illegal in Philippines.. no sir, you don't need too much info...)
Most of the down payment scam - they get full payment and switch off.
Now innovation
Read and understand what the girl's trying
A few contact purchase to prove I am real. Then she'll arrange to fuck after another down payment
My answer ?
Go fuck yourself. You need me more than I need you.
