Is your online lover too good to be true? Know the red flags of a love scammer

Jexx Hinggo 3:17 PM lifestyle , 0 Comments

Dating in the digital age has become easier with so many apps and services to choose from. By the end of 2023, it was reported that 441 million people were using dating apps actively, generating around $8.7 billion in revenues globally through matchmaking services.

The appeal of dating apps is that you’re not limited by geography. You can meet people online in your city or in another country; you get to see how they look like from their profiles; find out their interests; and if you begin chatting, you can judge if you’re compatible enough to go on a first date.

Many Filipinos have fallen victim to romance scams, among other fakery proliferating online. Now there’s a Facebook page that crowdsources information and experiences so that you can be more aware about scams. Called Online Alerto, it’s a Facebook community page dedicated to the dissemination of invaluable insights, resources, and strategies related to digital literacy, cybersecurity, and responsible online behavior.

Acting as a collaborative platform, it facilitates members in validating their online purchases and transactions while fostering an environment where personal experiences are exchanged to help enhance online safety and awareness among all members. Online Alerto is absolutely free—all you need to do is join the community page to raise your own awareness about cybercrime.

While identity theft and hacking are the leading cybercrimes globally, love scams are rapidly on the rise. In Southeast Asia, these crimes have two victims: those deceived by the scam and those that are trafficked into doing the scams.

Online Alerto has pooled resources on the internet for warnings and tips on avoiding love scams.

Avoid these red flags

The person expresses strong emotions and love for you very quickly, often within days or weeks of initial contact.
They quickly ask you to leave a dating service or social media site to communicate directly on WhatsApp or SMS, where they can manipulate you more easily.
If an individual attempts to isolate you from friends and family or requests inappropriate photos or financial information, they could later blackmail you or extort money from you.
When you make plans to meet in person, they always come up with an excuse why they can’t.
They ask for money for various reasons such as travel expenses, medical emergencies, or business opportunities. This is often the biggest and most obvious red flag.
They tell you stories to elicit sympathy, such as being widowed, having a sick child, or facing some urgent crisis.
They ask you many personal questions, but they avoid sharing their personal details or give information that cannot be verified such as a home address or workplace.

What scammers say to hook you in

"I or someone close to me is sick, hurt, or in jail."
"I can teach you how to invest."
"I'm in the military far away."
"I need help with an important delivery."
"We've never met, but let's talk about marriage."
"I've come into some money or gold."
"I'm on an oil rig or ship."
"You can trust me with your private pictures."

Ways to protect yourself

Reverse search the person’s photo by using online searches like Google Images.
Be careful what you post and make public online. Scammers use details shared on social media and dating sites to better understand and target you.
Maintain a healthy level of skepticism, especially if things seem too good to be true.
Suggest a video call early in your communication.
Check their social media profiles for consistency with what they've told you. Look for a reasonable number of friends, photos, and posts over time. A lack of social media presence or a newly created profile can be a red flag.
If you decide to meet in person, choose a public place and inform a friend or family member about your plans. Ensure the person you meet matches their online presence.
Some dating apps offer identity verification features, like blue checkmarks, to indicate users who have verified their identity through the app.

Join Online Alerto on Facebook to better protect yourself from romance and other scams and learn from other people’s experiences.

Camella, A Legacy Built on Lifelong Dreams

Jexx Hinggo 2:48 PM camella , lifestyle 0 Comments

In the late 1970s, a vision emerged from a young gravel and sand company, laying the groundwork for what would become a leading force in the national building sector. As the enterprise expanded into construction and property development, it became clear that its ultimate mission was to empower every Filipino to call a home their own.

Recognizing the potential to harness economies of scale and a network of construction experts and suppliers, the strategy evolved from building individual homes to developing entire housing communities. This innovative approach facilitated the creation of cost-effective, high-quality homes, making the dream of homeownership more accessible to many Filipinos.

Today, Camella represents more than just the realization of lifelong ambitions; it symbolizes the creation of family legacies. These homes are not just structures but receptacles of cherished memories, adventures, and conversations, passed down through generations. Camella has become synonymous with homes across the country, intricately woven into the national consciousness.

Camella's unwavering commitment to turning Filipino dreams of homeownership into reality has driven its expansion across the archipelago, establishing communities that cater to the aspirations of Filipinos, whether driven by tradition, employment opportunities, or the allure of a particular location. Every Camella community is crafted with purposely built spaces that foster a sense of belonging, where neighbors can gather, connect, and create lasting memories.

As Camella approaches its 50th year, the company celebrates half a century of building homes and communities that make every Filipino family's dream real. This longevity is anchored in five core brand aspirations: Dream Communities, Convenience and Accessibility, Safety and Security, Wise Investment, and Value for Money. These ideals have shaped every aspect of Camella's operations, ensuring its continued success in providing Filipinos with the upgraded lifestyle they have been seeking.

The journey from a gravel and sand company to a household name has been remarkable, but what truly stands out is Camella's ability to grow and evolve while staying true to its core mission of providing a home for every Filipino family. By seamlessly combining its founding principles with the evolving desires of the Filipino families it serves, Camella has continued to deeply resonate with its community, solidifying its legacy as a trusted builder of homes and communities.

Facebook and Instagram down, users being logged out

Jexx Hinggo 12:09 AM facebook , lifestyle 0 Comments

Facebook and Instagram were down today, March 5, 2024. All users were logged out of their accounts and can't seem to log in again even if they reset their passwords.

It could be due to various reasons such as technical issues, server problems, cyber-attacks, or maintenance activities.

Technical glitches and server issues are common causes of social media platforms going down. With the increasing complexity of these platforms and the high volume of users accessing them simultaneously, even minor issues can sometimes lead to widespread outages.

Cyber attacks, such as Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks, can also disrupt the services of large online platforms like Facebook and Instagram. These attacks involve overwhelming the servers with a flood of traffic, making the platforms inaccessible to users.

Additionally, scheduled maintenance activities can sometimes cause temporary downtime for social media platforms. Companies often perform maintenance to update their systems, fix bugs, or enhance security measures, which can result in users being unable to access the platforms for some time.

Companies like Facebook and Instagram need to have robust infrastructure and security measures in place to prevent such outages from occurring frequently and to minimize the impact on their users.

Bee Choo Origin Now Open in Davao

Jexx Hinggo 10:15 PM lifestyle , 0 Comments

I recently tried Bee Choo Origin's herbal hair treatment service, and it was truly amazing. Founded in Singapore by Madam Chea Bee Chew in 2000, this place specializes in natural herbal treatments for various hair and scalp issues. Their focus on holistic hair care and the use of natural ingredients really appealed to me.

The treatment involved a blend of traditional Chinese herbs like Ginseng, Ling Zhi, He Shou Wu, and Dang Gui, which are known for promoting hair growth, reducing hair fall, and maintaining scalp health. After the treatment, I noticed a significant improvement in my hair texture and scalp condition.

What impressed me the most was their personalized consultations and the use of a microscopic scalp analysis device to monitor my progress. The 90-minute herbal treatment was quite relaxing, involving the application of their herbal paste, steaming, washing off the paste, and finishing with a blow-dry. They also offer post-treatment products like shampoo, conditioner, tonics, and serums.

If you're interested in trying it out, you can book your appointment through their website at beauhauck.com or by calling their SM Lanang Premier branch at 0995 3285804. Below are the prices of their services and products. I highly recommend giving it a try!

Here's a quick video of my experience.

In today's fast-paced world, Grab Philippines is changing the game when it comes to affordable transportation and delivery services with its new budget-friendly options. With the launch of GrabCar Saver, GrabFood Saver Delivery, GrabFood Saver Meals, GrabUnlimited, and Grab Ride Saver, Grab is reshaping the way people live smartly and affordably.

Grab's latest initiatives signify more than just cost-saving features; they represent a lifestyle transformation for Filipinos. They enable people to enjoy life's pleasures – a smooth ride, a delicious meal, and a well-planned grocery haul – without worrying about breaking the bank.
