If we include unfulfilled promises or claims or visions that were promised, we would say yest:
1. Churches/sects - "If you join us, you will have everlasting life, you will be saved." - Do we have enough proofs of those who were saved, or those who had everlasting life.
2. Schools educational institutions - "When you study, you will be smarter, you will have high paying jobs." Really?
3. Social security system - safety nets for our workers when they retire or are laid off...
4. Politicians govt - We will take care of the poor and take care of your needs. This country will be great again
5. Product - this cream will make you white. This drug will make you live longer.
Trust no one. Silence is golden. Be discreet about your success or financial standing. Do not share this online on soc media or people you met on your social media account: WhatsApp, DM, or dating sites. Or even to persons who are close to you: relatives, friends.
There is large scale land scam in our area that drives away investors, stops development. The justice system helped perpetuate this scam
This is the so called Guido Estate, purportedly existing since 1912. This covers areas from Mambog of Binangonan up to Villa Valera in Taytay.
The claimants here are 3: Guido et al Interport and Rommel Realty. When you apply for title it was alleged you have to settle, get quick claim from the 3 of them.
Correct us if it wrong. There was this title for the Guido estate with technical description which was hurriedly issued a title on the same day by the RD of Morong. The Mayor of Binangonan through the Solicitor General filed a suit vs the Title and the RTC said the title is fake. The case was brought before the CA which reversed the lower court This eventually led to having the Supreme Court for finality. SC said that all titled land belong to the owners with Title, and those without title with Tax Dec are subject to case by case litigation.
I met a person who used to work for BL who boasted that he was able to memorize the technical description of a 700 sm property, from a microfiche. From there, he was able to project that property to be 3,000 hectares. And the technical description was the basis of the title issued by the RD of Morong.
How could the courts have caused so much injustice, perpetuating a scam, denying them the right to abode and land ownership. I wonder if Guido was able to show proof of possession by paying the back taxes.
Those who have tax dec can sell them but no TCTs will be issued to them. Legit businesses will not buy properties without title. So it is common in this area to sell subdivision lots without TCT.
When will the scam stop? When will these 3 entities end the blockade to businesses who want to be in our area?
When you do not keep your word you engage in scamming. Those who say they have never told a lie is a liar.
One of the secrets of success is keeping your word. But many times we dont: we forget, we do not strive, or sometimes we do this willfully.
Delivering products or service not as promised on the said delivery date is tantamount to scamming. Yet that happens, because of oversight, too many deliveries, or lack of supervision. Somebody must strive to keep the word to the customers
A scam, or a confidence trick, is an attempt to defraud a person or group after first gaining their trust. Confidence tricks exploit victims using a combination of the victim's credulity, naïveté, compassion, vanity, confidence, irresponsibility, and greed. Researchers have defined confidence tricks as "a distinctive species of fraudulent conduct ... intending to further voluntary exchanges that are not mutually beneficial", as they "benefit con operators ('con men') at the expense of their victims (the 'marks')".[1]
