Philippine girls are infamous for running money scams 
on lonely, foolish Western men they find on the Net.
I have a friend deep into this con for years 
and you can't tell him.
My heart breaks for him, because it's the only female 
attention he gets.  Her grandma needs medicine 
or baby sister sick or she needs heart surgery etc. etc.
She lets him come there and "visit" whenever 
he can scrape together air fare 
but mostly he stays destitute, sending all his small 
income chasing this sad and crooked fantasy.
Sometimes, I wish I could hire Guido and Sancho
to take a trip to the P.I. for me....
