Jollygoodfellow Posted August 29, 2011 Posted August 29, 2011 Well we should consider that she might be worth every peso as maybe some details have been left out :SugarwareZ-034: The police also advised foreigners not to be trusting to anyone. (Great advice) Not even the police giving the advice ? :thumbsup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Hounddriver Posted August 29, 2011 Posted August 29, 2011 Some lights just came on for me. This guy was having a couple of drinks at 12 noon with some girl and then passed out until 3. No one seemed to think that was peculiar, especially not the security guard. Wonder what he, she or they put in his drink. I start to think this was not a crime of opportunity but a planned robbery. Mike's comment on her being a criminal gets my vote. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sjp52 Posted August 30, 2011 Posted August 30, 2011 Now I know why they let us foreigners into the Philippines. If they didn,t they would not have any headlines for their news papers. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Call me bubba Posted August 31, 2011 Posted August 31, 2011 "Brit national loses over......."the headline could have been, "drunken brit murdered after being robbed of his valuables" this could have turned out much worse for this man, HE WAS VERY .VERY D xx M lucky he wasnt killed.yes he was "STUPID" (attacking his actions not the person) for wearing his HIGH VALUE jewelry. cell phonei am sure in some parts of the UK he would or others would not Flaunt such items. but in the RP that's a BIG NO.... NO.... ,even some of the "rich" wear "fake knock offs" so they dont get "robbed" AT LEAST HE IS STILL ALIVE Thats the main point I wish to make. :no: 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hmmm?Yah right they(police) be looking for you to and then they would want more of your pesos and your socks and shoes before they let YOU GO! :wt-hell: Warlord Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sonjack2847 Posted August 31, 2011 Posted August 31, 2011 Well I feel sorry for him but he should have known better. Maybe he was straight of the plane,, Maybe it was his first trip who knows.I have never been robbed abroad in fact the only place I have been robbed was here in the UK. Now I wear a cheap watch and only 1 ring which is small so as not to attract too much attention. Still he is 67 and was drinking in the morning/early afternoon maybe the heat got to him. Still hope he is ok and learns from his mistake. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
