Scam or Just Paranoia?

  

ORIGINALLY POSTED AT: http://reesie.net/2008/08/scam-or-just-paranoia/

I was blog-hopping yesterday and I stumbled upon this blog http://hospitalscams.blogspot.com/. I’ve spent the whole afternoon reading it. It was about this British guy who met a Filipina online. He literally spammed the internet with his 20 different blogs about his said misfortunes with this girl. He believed that he was scammed – that the girl, Paranaque Medical Hospital, doctors, lawyers, the British Embassy of the Phil, Tierra Maria Estates and even Chin-chin Guttierez were all part of it. He believed that this is a large scale and organized plot against him. How much money involved? It was all for Php 84,000.00. Geeh! Imagine 20 people were trying to extort him for just Php 84,000.00! So if these so-called scammers divide the multi-million pesoseses, each of them would get a stunning Php 4,200.00!! Whew!Paranaque Medical Hospital can build four more branches from its share! The doctors and lawyers can retire with their money! Awesome!!Take note: he never shelled out the said amount out of his pocket!!! Read his detailed blog and it’s for you to find out if it was indeed true or if it was just a pigment of his imagination. I can’t help but compared him to John Nash(”Beautiful Mind”) – not the intelligent side but the sanity side of him.

A lot of people have been blogging about it and this one I particularly like: http://jepoy.bengero.com/2008/02/hospitalscamsblogspotcom-severe-case-of.html. The guy even posted comments/reactions on it. He would attack everyone who didn’t believe him. This blog I also like : http://reynaelena.com/2008/04/24/was-there-a-scam-the-motive/ . An excerpt from this blog:

“This is a story that is a product of Tim’s doubts and fears and escalated into a mix of fantasy/reality that’s already imbedded in his mind. A story that was already hatched in the UK even before it started in Manila and everything that happened in between were just proofs of those doubts and fears. “

Quite honestly, I was really entertained. Well, I really pity him though. He created his own nightmare and consequently ruined his own happiness.

I had a chance to read the whole hospitalscam blog before the umbra from hell deleted it.
It was a long journey through all his paranoid rants and i had a strange feeling in my guts, page after page i felt sicker and sicker.
I went to the hospital and doctors said that i got a severe case of poisoning due to an excess of cumper bullshit reading; now i need medications and i cannot afford the cost so i should probably publish a blog about the british pianist who ruined my health and i want hellumbra to send me 10000 euros because he is responsible for my sickness.
Do you think i should seek help from the embassy?
Maybe not, the embassy and the whole ministry of foreign affairs are conspiring with hellumbra against me… maybe the President of the Republic, the whole Parliament and the Pope are part of the plot… I wish i could get a cent from everybody who thinks hellumbra is a moron: i’d be rich in a while and buy the whole Palawan island and fly to the UK with a private jet to slap the idiot in his face with a rotten fish… Hahaha!
