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.
True🤣🤣🤣
In Singapore whatever you purchase is chargeable 9% tax called GST.
🤣🤣🤣
Good to know
😅😅😅 good one
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.
Great tip! Definitely something tourists should watch out for though… def a tourist trap! Thanks
WOW! So well described and balanced. Thanks!
Thank you! I appreciate the kind words
Good advices and tips for avoiding most of the rip offs🤔😎Thank you for sharing Jay🙂👍!!!
Thanks Jari
Appreciate the info brother love the channel keep the videos coming
More to come! I appreciate it
Awesome! Highly informational video. It’s helpful for tourists to have an enjoyable vacation experience not only in the Ph but anywhere else in the world! Thank you Jaycation for the effort!
Gotta be in the know!
Thank Jay Jay, love these videos.
Enjoy vegas my friend!
Awesome job jay .
Thanks Pertna!
Thanks !for the good advice .You have to b careful anywhere.
Exactly! Thanks
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.
💯💯💯 can happen to anybody
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 🇵🇭
Thanks bro! I bought Jordan 11s there as a kid once and they hurt my feet so bad! I also got a louis vuitton suitcase that broke right as i got home haha lessons learned. I hope you get to visit the philippines someday my friend. Cant wait to finally release the Hawaii Series next month! I got carried away with the Philippines and wanted to finish that first before i got back to Hawaii. Lol talk soon!
Thanks Jay for being real
Just want people to have a nice trip!
Thanks Jay!
Thanks for watching
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.
Nice! The hand scale comes in huge
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
Where that happen to you? Using my CC was totally fine
@@Jaycation Fyre in Makati (if you know what I’m talking about that bar)
@Fk74303 never heard but i kinda get what type of bar it is lol
Good video thanks for your advice. You reference a lot from the USA that I did not understand as I don't live there.
Thanks for watching. Where do u live?
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.
Thanks, just keeping it real! I want tourists to have a great time but to also be aware of the unfortunate side of the PH
great video
Thank you!
Full support and best regards/Ned👍👏👍
Thanks Ned!
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? 😆
You hit it right on the dot my friend!
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!
Good call! It really saves money in the long run.
I thought you were rapping Parokya ni Edgar 🤣
Bakit!
Great tips but these scams are everywhere, not just in the Philippines
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.
Thanks! Yeah its u fortunate but it does happen a lot in Manila
Thanks for the heads up on scams.
Alot is true anywhere you go, even your own hometown. Just use some common sense.
💯💯💯
What’s up my Freind 🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽
Yooo
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.
Our mannerisms sticks out no matter what you do there. Luckily our driver was a friend of ours & watched out for us
Yeah i stick out like a sore thumb 🤣
Party like a rockstar
Great song
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.
Yup! Way cheaper
There's also Wells Fargo, Bank of America and major banks in Manila. You can access your money there with the peace of mind.
I saw the wells fargo building!
first
💯💯💯
Relationship scams can work for Men as well, I’ve been getting a lot of Filipino men asking for money
Dont fall for it bro!
Expat will realized after.....they married a whole family !!!!
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.
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.
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!
YOLO!
@@Jaycation Take all your finances and put her name on the accounts too. That's what married people in love and married do. RIGHT. Haven't seen one blog where that's the case. Ah she loves me so I'll give a little money to her each month and maybe a little to the family. RIGHT.
28 pounds, that’s not even a kilo… Jay’s conversion is way off 😂😂😂. Kidding kidding😁
Im confused lol
@@Jaycation The joke is 28 lb. = 12.7 kg but you said “not even a kilo” so the lb. to kg conversion is way off. Bad dad pun joke😁😅😁😆
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"
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.
Love your final boss pic! 💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾ill make it to Macau someday
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✌✌✌
❤️❤️❤️🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭💯💯💯
👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
Thanks Jay!
I appreciate you watching!
