Barrio Fiesta, Hounslow, UK, 2008

An open letter to the Philippine community of the UK.

Last year (August 2007) I had the misfortune to become involved in an attempted fraud.
The details of this very long story put flesh on the bare bones of what was patently a scam
attempt, to extort money for an emergency operation that never happened.
Confusingly, fleshed
out in the manner that it was, it seems in many ways to be the story of a relationship - a story, however, that can very readily be twisted and distorted, by those with a vested interest, to make it appear instead, as the opposite to what actually occurred - I am no longer portrayed as the victim, but the villain.
There are people trying to invert the truth - maybe out of shame, maybe out of a commercial interest - but that is their aim.

However, the truth of the matter is that prior to the “hospital episode,” I had cause to
believe, in retrospect, that all was not proceeding quite as a relationship should have been, despite all the excuses that have since been made, regarding cultural differences and misunderstandings.

At the time of the “hospital incident” itself, I merely insisted on satisfactory proof being sent to me, through the appropriate channels, and I was very aware that my suspicions themselves, although totally justified, would be seen as insulting to those people I was dealing with in the Philippines.
However - the manner in which my requests for proof were dealt with - provided me with my first conviction that I was the victim of an attempted scam.

Because of my sincere emotional involvement, I decided that I needed more than circumstantial
evidence - and so I continued communication with the people involved in the Philippines -
convinced that as time went on I would get a clearer picture of the truth - which is indeed what
happened.

Because of the distressing, despicable method by which this scam was supposed to have happened - because I would have been impotent at a distance without some sort of leverage or bargaining power - because in many ways, the perpetrators of the scam were a “soft target” - ie they were known to me, they had a name and could not easily slip away into anonymity - I decided to use my writings (which had been started simply as a record of my proud romance) to document everything as the events continued to unfold.
This was all in a private blog for many months, but they were aware of its threatening potential.

I decided to use the blog towards the end of last year to publicly shame and expose the group for their activity and to act as a warning to others.
In a situation where there appeared to be either no fear of the law, or no law to fear, shame became a powerful and solitary tool.
Aware that my blog was becoming more and more
accessible on the Internet - and directly imposing itself in the public eye of anyone searching for the real estates company - more and more strenuous efforts were put in by them to try to get me to capitulate, to remove my writings - hoping that I was steadily being convinced by the excuses and lies that I was subjected to by my continued, yet confused, communication with the girl concerned - who insisted that the relationship had been and still was, genuine and sincere on her behalf.

It became increasingly obvious to me that this was now purely a business move on behalf of the real estates company - cynically and cruelly, it had nothing whatsoever to do with the original intention of a relationship, romance and marriage - it was all about them establishing their innocent reputation amidst all of my writings that were, by now, beginning to saturate the search engines.

In all this time however, not once did the real estate firm communicate with me directly, nor was one single shred of material evidence offered by them or the girl in support of their version of events.
Initially I stated my intentions and my desire to deal directly with the hospital.
To have chased up, invited specific pieces of proof would simply have allowed them to focus their recources into providing it (exactly as it did with the revelation of the scar over the webcam) - nothing proved.
However, by leaving it up to them - after all, the burden of proof was theirs, I would see the true state of affairs - just how much they were prepared to risk - the gamble between waiting to see if I would disappear, or sending further potentially incriminating proof - by way of falsified documents - with names and addresses on.
Why the hesitation?
If it had been all legitimate, there would have been absolutely no risk at all.
They were certainly aware that I was waiting to discover the truth.

I decided to cut off communication with the girl in February 2008.

Since that time - the real estate company have been mobilising an assortment of Filipino bloggers, around the world to combat my incriminating writings - with an emotional battering, pure fiction - being led in turn by such characters as Jepoy, Noemi Dado, SouthernDon and ReynaElena.
Perhaps some of these names will be familiar to you.

Here is an example of an obvious attempt at inflaming racial hatred, in a desperate effort to rally others around a distorted and false flag. This is direct from Reyna Elena - my comments in brackets. Please - do not let him deceive you.

Taking cue from the Pinay Scandal, the second SEO campaign I did was to equalize the internet bombardment of this notorious hoax producer, [have you got the slightest piece of evidence to support your theory that it is a hoax? Why would I go to all this trouble for a hoax?] scam inventor and Filipino hater [there, a direct accusation of racism - which is simply not true. I have stressed time and time again that this is all directed purely at the criminals and their supporters - but they are desperate, clutching at straws - because they know that they cannot produce even the smallest piece of material evidence. Besides, remember, most of these people were not even in the Philippines at the time.] Tim Curper of UK a.k.a. Ellumbra. How successful was our SEO campaign? Let’s start by saying that even before I even thought about putting an internet fight with this very sad and lonely single and grumpy old man, he has opened blogs after blogs of everything and anything against the Tierra Maria Estates, the Philippines, the Filipinos and reyna elena readers. [Another attempt at a racist slur - do not believe this evil man.]
Today?
After the 1st campaign that we did, the real story, the truth and nothing but the truth about the scam [Yeah, yeah, yeah - go on then - show me how you can possibly know the truth?] that never happened, the hoax that Tim Curper created in his schizophrenic minds is finally out there. [See where they are going?]

One of these days, we will uncover who you are, your wife and where you live and they will all find out what you are doing against the Filipinos. [This man is very deaf - and very stupid - he is still insisting that it is racist.] This is a very small world after all.” [Does that sound like a threat? Uncover who I am - I’m not even hiding - nothing to fear - I am simply telling it, as it is - and people are observing.]

They have even gone as far as posting an hour long video interview with the girl - in an attempt to convey their innocence.
They have not resisted using subterfuge and trickery, masquerading at times as “new friends” or interested parties - they have used forums, bulletin boards as fly-traps - luring me in - censoring comments to reflect only their devious intentions.
But the main thrust of the activity now, is that these bloggers, completely unconnected to the original events, are being used to denounce, distill and distort my writings - again - all in the hope that the very quantity will be overwhelmingly convincing - and will also succeed in pushing my story out of the public eye.

Please, read the story for yourself - read it carefully - try to see through the cunning illusion that was being painted. Don’t take the events at face value - they were only reported by telephone, email, IM or SMS messages - all very suitable to creating a false reality.
You will understand just how bewildering and devastating such events can be - as they attempt to psychologically manipulate the situation to their advantage - using the devious emotional tactics of the scammers themselves.

Now I have been accused of racism by these people, in their efforts to fan the flames of hatred and bigotry.
Nothing is further from the truth.
I am still mortified that my dream has been shattered in such an alarming and shocking manner.

I hope you will join me, privately if not overtly, in condemming these people who are being so energetically hostile towards the truth - and so destructive of our international relationship.

Please check out for yourselves - see precisely how ruthless, devious and persistent they can be - and bear in mind, all the time - these people cannot possibly know anything about the events of last August, from their own experience.

It is all propaganda.

Which is why I am writing this letter, hopefully to achieve exposure of this story to those seeking information about the Barrio Fiesta.
The battle in the search engines has now spilt over into that area.
The real estate company and maybe even some of the characters in the story might well be in
attendance again this year at the Barrio Fiesta in Hounslow in July.
If you read the story, you will see how I was double-crossed - I had a meeting at the Barrio
Fiesta last year, while still convinced that my relationship was sound and proceeding towards
marriage.
All was not to be so.

Yes - I agree - some of my writing has been quite harsh, quite critical - I have at times yielded to retaliation - when angered it is all too easy to write in a way that we later perhaps regret - but
please let me assure you, that all of it is aimed fairly and squarely only at the criminal community involved and only at those who allow it to thrive by giving succour and support - and by a constant denial of the truth.
I find that the bigotted hypocrisy of these bloggers is the most revolting aspect of this whole affair.

Please see beyond your natural, innate kinship - put aside any bias - search for the truth - if you can.

We are all living now in a global village - we must value the truth - international cooperation,
honesty and a universal morality.
We must not allow these ideals to be swept aside or buried
by national favouritism, jingoism or any form of racial bias or bigotry.
The truth must be prized above all else - that is the reason why I have continued with this for so
long.
It has been a revelation.

TIERRA MARIA ESTATES SCAM

Suddenly - like a bolt from the blue - I have finally understood.

I understand perfectly well that these people are doing what they are doing for their own obscure motives, or because they have been press-ganged into helping out Tierra Maria Estates (or whoever it is behind this organisation) - it does not necessarily involve the payment of any money (as they have been trying to suggest in their twisted propaganda.)

Of course - reading through my blog - it is very easy to be bewildered, hoodwinked - by all the detail.
You see - it is that very detail that is the camouflage - it is the scammer’s “invented reality” that they are trying to pass off as the truth - together with the emotional black magic - the spell that is cast by the girl.
Yes - over the internet - and especially when the heart wishes the truth to be otherwise - their deception (to gain money - or simply to regain the freedom to continue with their business) has a fair chance of success.
But strip away the camouflage - reveal the bare bones - and what have you got?
Yes - exactly - a classic scam scenario.
But it takes great tenacity and intelligence to be able to read between the lines - to not allow yourself to get tangled up in the web of deceit and lies.

I finally understand now why the following people . . .

Reyna Elena, John Phillips Bengero (Jepoy,) Don Pinger (SouthernDon,) Beng Hafner,
Sinaglaya, Kengkay, NinaRicciCruz (
Nina Lumberio,) Noemi Dado, Chuvaness, Lalaine, Diwatang Byaning, CathCath (Cathy Black,) Pusang Maganda, Dr Joy Barredo, Siopaomaster, Karlo (Gameops), Jakedeasis, PinoyLottoWinner, PinoyAmbisyoso, Noel Feria (Romantic Geek,) Karla Redor, Kotsengkuba (Noel Cabacungan,) MissPinkBiik, & of course Francis M Jalbuena (Sir Francis,) Ma. Ana Samson Betita (Mayen,)

. . . have had the trouble they have had - wrestling with their communal conscience - trying to decipher the truth.
It is cunningly concealed - just as they contrive it to appear in real life.
However to help them - I have constructed the following checklist and questionnaire.

**********************************************************

Over here in the west, this is how we would define a “love scam” . . .

* Girl pretends affection for a man.

* They make plans together - marriage being the number one promise.

* Girl asks to sleep with man.

* The grooming period is now over.

* Girl keeps asking for money. (You might try and evade this by mentioning “cultural differences” - but not all good Filipinas will do this.)

* Quite often this is for “fake” scenarios - hospital bills being a speciality - the more emotionally
engaging - the better. (In fact if you recall - there were 2 hospital scenarios this time - the “ectopic pregnancy” & “the mother’s stroke.”

* No material evidence whatsoever is supplied to corroborate the scenario - only attempts to make the situation appear real. (Obviously - that is the scammer’s job.)

* When challenged to provide material proof of this scenario - it doesn’t happen.

* When a perceived threat looms - a minimum amount of material evidence is reluctantly provided - and it is highly suspicious - especially with regard to the timing of it’s production and question of legitimacy.

* The attitude demonstrated during these times is defensive and hostile.

* Continued communication reveals lies, deceits, inconsistencies - (and culminates in the revelation of a fake scar.)

* Excuses are made to deny any of the above (Obviously - that is a scammer’s job.)

………………………………………………………………………………………………………………..
Questions for you to answer.

* Tell me how my situation differs from that outlined above.

* Show me how you have been “helpful and friendly” in your dealings with this.

* If I told you that I had seen a video of a car crash - would you immediately say “No you haven’t”?

* Why do you immediately deny that I have seen a video of a fake scar - the ink being smudged by her thumb?

* Is it because you are being defensive?

* Is it because you have been observing my movements from afar and know that I have not seen a video of a fake scar?

* Is it because you are protecting someone or something?

* Will you admit that what you are doing has nothing whatsoever to do with the truth of the situation, but is purely and simply to get the incriminating material I have written removed or diluted?

* Will you admit that none of you know the slightest thing about the situation - from your first hand experience with it?

* If you were to read the book “Titanic” - would you get very wet at the end?

* Would you admit that experience is a greater teacher than simply reading words?

* Would you admit therefore that you are in no position to challenge my experience of the events -
especially with such energetic assertion and hostility - unless it is for a prior motive - which has nothing to do with the truth?

* Would you admit that you have been purposeful and determined at distorting my words - to reflect
the picture that you have been instructed to paint?

* Would you admit that you have been exaggerating - often to the extent of inventing lies - that simply do not exist in my words?

* Would you admit that you have been creating a psychological smokescreen - suggestions like paranoia, hallucinations, etc. simply because it is a convenient way for you to try to create doubt of my words?

* Would you admit that you have been recruiting others, enjoining them to engage in an assault on my words?

* Would you agree to attempting to inflame this assault by insinuating that my attack is racist?

* Would you admit that this is just to deflect the gaze from your own criminal intentions?
