A teenager in Bohol province committed suicide after she was scammed and failed to pass a college entrance examination.
Camiel Ann Humol, 19, of Barangay Santo Tomas in Trinidad town, Bohol died of a heart attack on Saturday, June 1, days after she was hospitalized for cutting her wrists on apparent suicide.
According to her mother, Crispina, the teenager felt bad when she failed to pass the entrance examination at Trinidad Municipal College.
She said it was her daughter’s dream to become a teacher and was driven to fulfill her dream of finishing her studies to lift their family out of poverty.
The mother also learned that Camiel was duped out of P50,000 cash.
Camiel’s grandmother Aurelia received a text message that she won P700,000. The texter claimed to be a lawyer who works from a government agency.
A certain Ramon Lopez told her that in order to claim the P700,000 she would have to pay P50,000 for the processing fee.
Camiel convinced her grandmother to borrow money from neighbors and relatives.
Aurelia even sold her cow and pawned her farm.
Camiel started paying money to a certain Ramon Lopez on April 17 until May 24. But she was only short of P1,600 from completing the P50,000 fee just days before her death.
Her family believed the teenager was distressed after she reportedly failed to pass the entrance exam at the Trinidad Municipal College and for fear for losing her family’s money and farm.
She was brought to Gov. Celestino Gallares Hospital in Tagbilaran. At the hospital, Camiel became hysterical until she suffered a heart attack.
Crispina blames the scammer for her daughter’s death.
The family will ask help from authorities to identify and locate the scammer.
I want to be sad about this, but fucking hell, youre a senior high graduate and you dont know how scammers work? I should blame the scammer but come on 50,000 is a large amount of money I dont think anyone with a right mind would actually be bothered and risk being in debt
I need to say this, this is fucking stupid
Maybe because she lived in the province and there are places ion our country where people are still unaware of how some can be so cruel just to earn money. I know this for a fact for I study far away places in the Phils.
dude you are the fucking stupid , they dont have any access on internet and probably didnt know text msg scam i bet they dont even have a tv and just a nokia cellphone for communication or cheap touch screen. , did you read that they are poor? and lives in a farm? stupid
it’s common sense, why would they pay 50k jsut to get higher amount of cash in return? didn’t they find it suspicious?
You’re being way too judgemental ya dumbfuck
lol hypocrite
Mygoodness. Isang buhay ang nasayang dahil sa ignorantehan.
Di naman masama ang mag try. Hindi yun pagiging ignorante, maybe she’s just curious of what happened next.
Are you fucking daft? There’s nothing else to excuse what she had done, sorry to break it to you be what she did was out of ignorance. That you can’t excuse.
To us it was a risk, to her it was an opportunity
Yes,ignorance has its consequences, but look at it from a different angle. Her family is ridden in poverty, presumably she’s the bread winner, so she has the mission of lifting her family from being poor, I also assume that its hard to make a living for them(coz their poor).So,she gets that text messageabout the money, Imagine what could they have felt in their times of desperation, maybe for them it never crossed their mind that it was ascam,but rathera gift(“Prayers have been answered”), they fixated themselves upon the 700k (its a big number), and when people are poor they find opportunities(Not all poor people do it though, which is pretty bad) to earn money, ex.(Utang, work, etc.),and for that family to see that it was a hassle free way to gain cash and no hardwork required, caused a spark in them to be tempted to take the bid. To put it simply these people were just poor citizens whom wished to have a better life, and fate punished them severely for their ignorance, but I will say that thr scammer should be locked behind bars for his/her maelstrom among the people.
doon sa mga taong may negatibong komento tungkol kay camiel. ano ang karapatan nyong husgahan yun bata? alam nyo ba yun pinagdaanan nya? alam nyo ba kung anong hirap ang dinanas nya sa araw araw? kung nagkamali man siya at nagpaloko man siya wala pa rin tayong karapatan husgahan sya. patay na yun bata hindi ba pwedeng makiramay at maging malungkot na lang tayo sa mga nangyari sa kanya? kesa naman tawagin pa antin ng kung anu ano yun bata? if we dont have anyhting good to say just zip it.
Hysssss Di na kailangan ipagtanggol Ang nagpapakamatay dahil Ang pag pakakamatay ay katumbas NG pag alay NG buhay sa demonyo ipagtanggol mo PARANG Tama pa sya
Please po,wag puro talino ang pairalin ha.Minsan matuto din po tayong maki simpatya. In everything that happened to her,wala po tayo ni isang karapatan para husgahan o hamakin sya. Behind that Ignorance?Alam ba natin kung anong purpose nya?Kung anong desire ng heart nya para sa family nya or kung ano ang nasa isip nya. It is wrong to commit suicide and yun lang ang alam kung pagkakamali dahil hindi nun maitatama ang sitwasyon likewise ang manghusga na para bang alam na natin lahat.Bakit pa natin dadagdagan ng mga kung anu anu pang salita.Wala tayong nalalaman. Sa mata ng Diyos,Wala tayong nalalaman,And that is also “ignorance” right? So who we are to judge?
Ok. Mahal nya pamilya Kaya nag pakamatay nalang sya sooo ano nang mangyayare ??uunlad ba Sila o baka bebenta nya kaluluwa nya sobrang Mahal nya talgaa bubo NG pota I can udge at him because even at us it’s illegal specially at God so we can judge his ficking sin as A ARGUMENTS. Plss wag Kong ipagtanggol Yung mga successful na!! successful na sa katangahan kailangan mating ipagtanggol Yung buhay pa
GOD HAS FORGIVE ME
Pero ang tanong ko po is anu pa po bang magagawa ng judgement natin? Para anu po yung mga negative comments?Para gisingin ang mga tao na dapat wag “bobo” ..”tanga”..ganun?at some point may punto naman po e…pero pwede nyo namang sabihin in a good way.Diba? Hindi naman po masamang mag komento o magpahayag ng sariling pananaw o katwiran.Magagawa nyo po yun nang mahinahon. sa ganunng paraan mas maiintindihan pa lalu ang inyong saloobin.Tulad ng sabi ko mali ang magpakamatay diba.pero sa sitwasyon na nangyari na?di ko na kailangan na pabugsuin pa ang damdamin ko at magalit.. Lahat naman gusto magpahayag ng saloobin,bat di nalang in a good way diba.
IT’S SIMPLE!!!
SHE DIED BECAUSE OF POVERTY,MONEY,AND FUCKING LACK OF TRUST IN GOD.
“DEMON ARE LAUGHING AT HIM NOW”
