I don't know all the details, but it seems that her UA-cam account is linked to the bad guy's Adsense. I have seen that guy moderating Filipinas' channels out there. One day he will get in trouble and UA-cam will wipe out all the YT accounts linked to his Adsense account. I think it might be safer for Gel to start a brand new account from scratch but this time she will need some professional advice as to how to do that. She might have to use a new phone, name, email, physical address, this and that. Recently, Myk's Philippine Journey's account was removed by YT with almost 26k subscribers due to being linked to another YT account of his that violated YT's terms of service.
@@aboveitall9600 It was copyright infringement committed by one of his accounts, which was linked to his main account by Adsense. Now he can't legally have/use a YT account or use his Adsense ever again on YT. I was just trying to make the point that YT removes YT accounts when found to be linked to a violation somewhere to prevent fraud or other violations.

If you listened to her story carefully, you'd deduce that there was a lady serving as the middle-man to give mountain angel some money upfront. Who knows what the terms and conditions of that was? Perhaps he didn't want to do business with her directly because of her young age. Don't be so quick to judge/demonize the man when you have no idea what happened
@@kokoyaro TF u talking about? The Jersey man did the same thing to Q... Took Q donation money. All the money that was donate to Q website. Strike one strike two...
Gel and her family are so pure, and simply showing their life is such an enjoyable viewing on UA-cam. She has a wonderful future ahead of her. Along with her family.
@@SteadyCreations I thought it was him. He apparently is managing a lot of other Filipinas' channels. Word must get out. I can't remember who now, but I have seen him being a moderator on Filipinas' channels.
First she is underage so her channel should have been put in her parents name plus why would you recommend a person that you never met also The number one thing you do when you make a UA-cam channel is that you have to verify your residence by receiving a pin number from AdSense Sounds Bad from the beginning
Derek, you came across a young remarkable young girl on your expeditions one fine day, and out of the kindness of your heart, you helped her along the way to start her vlogging experience, which in turn has helped her mind grow and family burdens far less, no matter if this USA guy screwed her, it is a great learning curve for her, what goes around comes around, just keep them good vibes flowing with positivity, love, and kindness, my man, and all will be just fine..Love to you all, and I hope your arm gets better very quickly..
I watched your first encounter with this lovely young lady and was one of the very first to donate to her. They were very grateful and I continued to support her until I heard that they were taking a different approach than what you had planned originally for her. I wasn't a fan of anyone dipping into her accounts and taking her money out for small reasons. I didn't trust the guy who was "managing" her YT. I had a very strange gut feeling he was up to no good but couldn't prove it. Gel is a wonderful young lady who will succeed in life, for sure. Well done Derek.
@@ChochiT0-ddd7fdhe was trying to be associated with Jennalyn a few months back. She actually used to communicate with him offline a lot and I don't see him anymore in her chats. She probably realized that his intentions were not good and she stopped talking with him
Derek maybe I'm missing something but why would you recommend that individual to her if you had so many issues while you were working with that individual from NJ.😮
I didn't know. I passed on the information to Anthony before the problems arise. I disclosed all facts at the time and asked him to decide for himself. My fallout was just recently and Gel's family almost never reached out to me so I thought all was fine and dandy in danao
She just learned a lesson for life ! Better now with not so much cash then later on with a fortune ! Scammers are all over, not just on internet... Stay safe 🥰
I just came upon her channel. Being underage, I was uncomfortable interacting. Some of the comments are creepy. It’s a middle schooler guys. I’m glad someone is helping her. People are naive when it comes to legality’s in the Philippines…money management is non existent. Hopefully some can step in that doesn’t have ill intentions. Exploitation is unacceptable…is the person even American?
Very moving !! What a pleasure to hear this story. And what a future I believe she has ! She is so bright and has such an impressive and sweet personality ! 43:16
I was prepard to sponsor a young school girl that Q Adventures showed, but I didn't go ahead when I was told by Derek to pay it to her aunts gcash account, Derek has his fingers in too many pies, this video is for him to clear his own name nothing else. In the very start of his dealings, I told him that he cannot ask for or accept donations as a foreigners it is against Filipino Law. I have since the early days realised that Derek was a man moving around in areas where he shouldn't be.
I don't not recall the event, Keith. I apologize. I also appreciate your input, as well as I face failures on camera and many undocumented. It is rare to cross paths with individuals like Gel and Ken where success was realized early. And yes, the moment Gel's channel was monetized, it was a success. What happens after the fact is out of my hands. Students that we sponsor for college, success or failure takes yrs to measure. At the end of the day, I enjoy what I do
@@qadventures The "event" was when you met a young boy and girl in a shopping area the boy was older than the girl, they were not related as I remember, but both were looking for sponsorship you went to where they lived the young girl lived with a relative not her mother, you zeroed in on the boy to help, I was willing to sponsor the young girl until you gave me the gcash number for her aunt who she didn't live with, that was an immediate red flag, I then stopped even considering her. Once you start something it should not be OUT OF YOUR HANDS if legal you should be there till you are sure that the people you involve can stand on their own two feet, not rush off to something new that makes you feel good. In case you are wondering I'm 80 years old
I have dealt with a LOT of evil people in my life and I can honestly say that the majority are lawyers,judges,prosecutors,etc, I sense only good vibes and feel that he is a good and decent man! I would trust him with my child or my finances! I can sense evil or manipulation and Derek shows any sign of either! This world needs more people like Derek!
I have so many thoughts right now in my head. First of all, i am happy that the financial situation is solved. I believe in Karma and the bad guy will face that karma in future. I am also happy that Gel can try so many things she is interested in. I am born and raised in the west but never had this kind of support from my family. So Gels´s parents are a big plus to her life and her future. Learning to trust or not to trust is a process and this is also a topic where you never get to an end. Its more like learning to see red flags. I wish Gel and her family all the best. Take care and keep on rocking!
There is no Karma. it doesn't exist, just life events, whether we are good or bad. I just want to understand why Gel and her father allowed somebody on the internet manage their money and how could they get to use the guy's Adsense. That guy will get in trouble at some point and UA-cam will remove Gel's account for being linked to him. Not only Gel's but the other Filipinas that the guy is managing the accounts of.
it's OK Gel, everyone who watches you and enjoys you and your family for being honest and humble in the mountain life. We enjoy watching you. Sad to say it happens Q.
As an American I'm sorry somebody from New Jersey took advantage of this innocent young lady this gentleman is a great mentor and has some great words of advice bless you all 🙏
Just subbed to this channel and to Angel's channel. Stumbled upon this video while browsing for content from the Phillipines and went ahead to look at how it all started with this young angel. Please shield her from all the bad influences from the west. Or at least guide her to stay on the right path. She is still a young kid after all and might not grasp the severety of some actions. I enjoy watching these life experiences since I too am from a developing country, doing OK by today's standards but I came from nothing. I'm grateful of the help and guidance you've given that family, a complete stranger in the middle of a mountain has elevated a whole family's living status just out of kindness. God bless you and everyone who chimed in to help. Is it OK to still donate on her channel or is/will there be a new channel.
I appreciate you so much and your similar experience with your upbringing. You can donate directly from her channel @mountainangeldiaries. There should be donation links in ever of her video description section
Your channel has been incredibly insightful, showcasing a side of the Philippines I didn’t know existed-in the most positive way! Despite any challenges, the warmth and smiles of the people shine through, and it’s wonderful to see such a welcoming community. That said, there’s one thing that has been bothering me: the captions on some of your thumbnails. In this video, for example, you used '13 Years Old Used & ABUSED!' These kinds of captions are very sensitive and can come across as quite disturbing. I have huge respect for you and your work, so I mean no negativity here. I understand it can serve as a hook, but such a title can give an impression that may not fully align with the message you intend to convey.
Hi Hasham. Thank you very much for the extensive and constructive input. I understand your concern and I leave the creative aspect of my channel, including thumbnails, to my channel manager who is a local. With that said, your same opinion had crossed my mind. But in a literal sense, her youtube channel WAS used and her trust abused. In the modern days, anything can and will be twisted from reality. Hence I have found a new home here in the Philippines from Los Angeles where life is more straightforward. I appreciate your commending my efforts and I will shoot a video to address these concerning thoughts. Thank you again and I hope to have gained your continued support simply by watching my content
@qadventures Thank you so much for taking my feedback positively. Wishing continued growth for your channel & looking forward to the video addressing similar concerns. Take care always!!
Derek, I have been watching your channel and saw your first video about Gel. I watch Gel's video too. She is an amazing hardworking girl who wants the best for her family. I can't fathom how any person could stoop to such a level to steal from anyone out of their hard earned money. You need to expose this scum bag and warn other people to beware dealing with this POS!!
Derek I learned of Gel through your channel and subbed to hers.I have never donated to any other channel except hers. Sadly she is learning the hard way how cruel the world can be. Even the innocent cannot be protected for long! Kudos Derek for helping her and having her back. I am sure that Gel and her family consider you a true friend and mentor! Watch out! Her subs are quickly catching yours!! LOL
Name reveal pls! Its for awareness of other Filipina UA-camrs🙏 I was scammed by a foreigner too in other way, and this NEW JERSEY guy I think I know him!
Hello Gel, Q and Ai, Well unfortunately these things happen. Having a UA-cam channel opens up the world to you Gel and unfortunately people who are going to do you harm live init too. I am happy that things have been resolved. It is not worth spending energy or time on doing anything about it because the amount lost is so small. Just learn from the experience as you have. Gel, I am happy that you are enjoying your new school experience. It does sound like it is challenging you academically also. That is great! Just remember Gel, keep focusing on your studies. If you are the top student in your school you can get a scholarship for college once you graduate from high school. That would be huge for you. I say this because I know that you can achieve this. You are very smart! So have fun with your sports but keep your school work your top priority. ❤
NOT WORTH SPENDING ENERGY OR TIME ON DOING ANYTHING ABOUT IT???? if no one does anything about it, it just keeps happening over and over again!!! if someone gives this THIEF what he deserves then he will never hurt anyone again! excuse me if im wrong, BUT evidently you have never been to the Philippines. im MARRIED TO STEFFY and we lived there together once we got married. watching videos of life in the Philippines is NOTHING COMPARED TO LIVING THERE AND SEEING THE POVERTY FIRST HAND! my wife STEFFY got her BSN in 2009, we got married in october 2015. i paid off the loan from her aunt that was loaned so she could get her degree. she never took her nclex test but went to work instead and not only supported her immediate family, but also helped her uncles and was paying for her 5 nephews and neices to attend school and college . if you never sat and ate dinner with someone that lives in poverty in the Philippines, you can not begin to imagine the hardships these people consider an ordinary day! YES, SHE SHOULD KEEP HER HEAD UP AND NOT LET THIS INCIDENT RUIN HER LIFE AND HAPPINESS! BUT FOR SOMEONE IN AMERICA TO STEAL FROM THIS YOUNG GIRL, THAT IS A WORSE CRIME THAN BEING A PEDO! I USE TO THINK THEY WERE THE LOWEST FOR OF SCUM AND USE TO SEND THEM TO THE PRISON HOSPITAL QUITE OFTEN, AND THE THIEF THAT STOLE FROM THIS GIRL IS A GREATLY LOWER PIECE OF TRASH THAN THE WORST PEDO!!!
Mountain Angel is such a beautiful doll and so smart I really enjoyed watching this video she remind me of the Filipino pee I'm sure she will be just like her I hope the best for her
She should let me be her manager.. She will get all the money. I do not need any money for doing it. I can also help her out if she wants to sell stuff. I'm retired and planning on visiting next year after i recover from back surgery. 😊
hey Q you're the one who introduced the dude to the young girl and never followed up you even said you had issues with him and dumped him. what did you expect? thank god she is quick and wise for her young age. lesson learned
Hi 🤗 thnx for that you find Gel, and help she whit that start Vlog, She is so amazing great to see and hear, And I hope that money scam stuff is over, so Gels family can use that money for their better future life 🤗
How LOW can you go. Stealing from a poor child is as low as it gets. I hope he has a conscience and makes things right, but I doubt it. I hope that they are now in full control of their income and will listen to any advice that you give them, Derek.🥰🏝🇵🇭
@Q Adventures. Just getting to watch this vlog now Derek and man it got you plenty of viewership haha.. Very cool awesome vlog bro and yet horrible to think that someone scammed this little mountain angel,coz Gel is such a lovely polite girl and doesn't deserve to be treated like this, but unfortunately this is happening all over the world now and so many unfortunate people are getting hurt 😢😢 Thankfully your there to help her Derek.🙏
@qadventures indeed it is my friend,coz it happened to me in Makati in July there and especially on my actual birthday,so it's happening everywhere na.
Bro it’s ok you messed up by providing the scammers details to her. Life is about learning and one is never too old. All the good you do far outweighs this incident. I do hope the scammer gets some justice sooner rather than later.
There is probably a lot more to this story. Some random american is not going to bother scamming someone for $250. The work he put in is worth ten times that amount. It just sounds like he does this as side projects and doesnt really put much effort into the communication or contract details. He is probably just paying for his expenses and doesnt want to waste even more effort on explaining every detail. This is why all these intermediate sites that get into the money flow are ill advised. Simply post a stand alone bank name, and account number and anyone who wants to give can wire money directly into that account with zero middlemen and zero percentages except a small transfer fee. Or gcash number, etc. That is the only way I send to anyone overseas. None of this "buy a coffee" or whatever that takes ten percent.
Yeah they should just post their GCash and make people aware they can use various online services to send with no fees taken out. The one I use starts with "Remit", but you can't post the full name here or UA-cam will censor it.
@@stb-pk1fs Exactly, or WU, or whatever service you want to use. Point is that there is no middlemen and no one taking a cut for themselves. I made this suggestion about setting up these people who get interviewed with email addresses and own such money accounts when I first saw these videos but was told all the reasons why not, never anyone looking seriously at the very good reasons why for. Most people will not send money to a third party or middle man service just because of all the percentages that get taken out.
@@qadventures Im not defending a guy I dont even know, Im just saying that this all sounds like a sideline for him and he just wants to do the bare minimum. However, my point about these channels that interview locals, especially girls, and never giving out their contact information without several middlemen is just asking for problems. If the girl is under 18, involve the parent, if older than 18, set them up with a free email account and gcash or other account. That way, if someone wants to donate to them, they can do it easily and without excessive fees. And they can be assured the money goes to who it is meant for. I have said this forever.
Q bless you brother yes you should mentor her and her family , I am in america my wife is in the Philippines in a mid size city she has a sorry sorry and is very successful, we have no children of our own but a 26 year old niece and her daughter a 6 year old and now a 14 year old niece living with Bela my wife. These girls are from the province and not much chance to grow with education we got them in city and in school we teach much about a better life and watch them so no one takes advantage of them it is so wonderful to watch these girls grow as a sargot father the responsibility is heart warming to see them grow to smart young ladies. You will feel it I will be moving back home there in Feb after my business here in states is handed over and a surgery heals I hope someday I can visit you another person with a good heart both my wife and I applaud you there is still good people in this world keep up your channel great job Brother
This is creepy. The Philippines is very strict when it comes to interactions between foreigners and children. Nobody should be dealing with this girl. Nobody.
@Wesna269 you don't deal with children in the Philippines under ANY circumstances. Especially this Q guy. All it takes is one misunderstanding or indiscretion, and bad things can happen.
This actually happen to a guy in my country he had 70k subscribers and his manager was in the UK, big red flags the guy was so far away but he ended up giving up on the channel and started a new one. I wouldn't trust Noone "especially" someone overseas looking over my channel.
Im glad I was able to talk some sense to the host I moderate for and prevented her to decline his offer to gain managers access for. But she was close to add him. Thing is, I know that other vlogger as well and know lots more in background and how things flow in the background. Edit: Indeed he also has managers access to that vlogger who visited Gel sometimes.
Derek this looks very bad. He should be investigated. Be careful how you deal with kids and what words to use around kids. If you dont have the words to say dont say anything. Your not good with ad-libbing have a script and work the script. But get this guy investigated
Sorry for it happen Gel . It happen to lots of people online so be careful. Just keep on your good work there is a lot of lot of people love watching your work. Have a nice day and bless you all. 🙏🫶💐👸🏻💐
That's so stupid rip'n off a lilkid 4mths tubing keep up with your vlogz lillady you'll do just fine hun Sup2 from Sydney Australia ❤❤❤what's Gel UTUBE name please so we can support her channel
Very unfortunate. Lessons learned. Never trust anyone with your money. I'm watching her channel since a few months Found by your Q channel. Let's hope this video gives her more views and subscribers to make her channel bigger. Btw om her own element she looks big. Next to you she's so little 😅 I'm small too so no offense 😄
Not knowing All that’s going on. And understanding where she lives, and her family lifestyle. Being scammed and used from all angles. Tacking candy from a baby. ??????????

Scamming poor people is the very lowest. You are a good man QA. Keep up the good work. I hope to meet you someday while in Philippines.

As an American I'm sorry somebody from New Jersey took advantage of this innocent young lady this gentleman is a great mentor and has some great words of advice bless you all 🙏
Thank you, Richard. I am also on a journey to gain wisdom
Just subbed to this channel and to Angel's channel. Stumbled upon this video while browsing for content from the Phillipines and went ahead to look at how it all started with this young angel. Please shield her from all the bad influences from the west. Or at least guide her to stay on the right path. She is still a young kid after all and might not grasp the severety of some actions. I enjoy watching these life experiences since I too am from a developing country, doing OK by today's standards but I came from nothing. I'm grateful of the help and guidance you've given that family, a complete stranger in the middle of a mountain has elevated a whole family's living status just out of kindness. God bless you and everyone who chimed in to help. Is it OK to still donate on her channel or is/will there be a new channel.
I appreciate you so much and your similar experience with your upbringing.
You can donate directly from her channel @mountainangeldiaries. There should be donation links in ever of her video description section
She is a very intelligent child and appears well behaved too.
Super
A tough but invaluable lesson.
A 13 yr old gained 10 yrs of wisdom from this incident
Yes. trust nobody..
Your channel has been incredibly insightful, showcasing a side of the Philippines I didn’t know existed-in the most positive way! Despite any challenges, the warmth and smiles of the people shine through, and it’s wonderful to see such a welcoming community.
That said, there’s one thing that has been bothering me: the captions on some of your thumbnails. In this video, for example, you used '13 Years Old Used & ABUSED!' These kinds of captions are very sensitive and can come across as quite disturbing.
I have huge respect for you and your work, so I mean no negativity here. I understand it can serve as a hook, but such a title can give an impression that may not fully align with the message you intend to convey.
Hi Hasham. Thank you very much for the extensive and constructive input. I understand your concern and I leave the creative aspect of my channel, including thumbnails, to my channel manager who is a local.
With that said, your same opinion had crossed my mind. But in a literal sense, her youtube channel WAS used and her trust abused.
In the modern days, anything can and will be twisted from reality. Hence I have found a new home here in the Philippines from Los Angeles where life is more straightforward.
I appreciate your commending my efforts and I will shoot a video to address these concerning thoughts.
Thank you again and I hope to have gained your continued support simply by watching my content
@qadventures Thank you so much for taking my feedback positively. Wishing continued growth for your channel & looking forward to the video addressing similar concerns.
Take care always!!
@HashamSiddiqui-g7b thank you Hasham. Just shot a video thanking your constructive comment
@@qadventures That was fast! 😲. Looking forward to it!
Track him down boys 🍻
I’ll pray for you mountain Angel 🙏🏽
You pray too,snd God will provide you a good manager 🙏🏽. And may your channel prosper 😊
Such a nice lady God bless her and her family
Peace be with you, keep up the good work, ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤from New York.
At the end of the day , I imagine you feel bad for your recommendation. ❤️
Derek, I have been watching your channel and saw your first video about Gel. I watch Gel's video too. She is an amazing hardworking girl who wants the best for her family. I can't fathom how any person could stoop to such a level to steal from anyone out of their hard earned money. You need to expose this scum bag and warn other people to beware dealing with this POS!!
Thank you, Beau. I don't want gel to be the casualty of war
@ I saw your follow up video and totally agree. 🙏🏻
I just went to subscribe to her channel for support, stay strong keep up the good work girl 👍👍👍hope it get fix soon
Derek I learned of Gel through your channel and subbed to hers.I have never donated to any other channel except hers. Sadly she is learning the hard way how cruel the world can be. Even the innocent cannot be protected for long! Kudos Derek for helping her and having her back. I am sure that Gel and her family consider you a true friend and mentor! Watch out! Her subs are quickly catching yours!! LOL
She's been doing better than me 2nd month ib😅
Name reveal pls! Its for awareness of other Filipina UA-camrs🙏 I was scammed by a foreigner too in other way, and this NEW JERSEY guy I think I know him!
m.ua-cam.com/video/B58zLnpN2pg/v-deo.html&pp=gAQB
Ppl are so cruel taking advantage of the minor & innocent. I just subscribed to her channel “Mountain Angel Diaries” to show my support. Good luck!
What an awesome little girl. L pray she does not lose her innocence which has been my greatest fear
Its ok to have this experience to learn that not all people in this world wants the best for her.
Hello Gel, Q and Ai,
Well unfortunately these things happen. Having a UA-cam channel opens up the world to you Gel and unfortunately people who are going to do you harm live init too. I am happy that things have been resolved. It is not worth spending energy or time on doing anything about it because the amount lost is so small. Just learn from the experience as you have.
Gel, I am happy that you are enjoying your new school experience. It does sound like it is challenging you academically also. That is great! Just remember Gel, keep focusing on your studies. If you are the top student in your school you can get a scholarship for college once you graduate from high school. That would be huge for you. I say this because I know that you can achieve this. You are very smart! So have fun with your sports but keep your school work your top priority. ❤
NOT WORTH SPENDING ENERGY OR TIME ON DOING ANYTHING ABOUT IT???? if no one does anything about it, it just keeps happening over and over again!!! if someone gives this THIEF what he deserves then he will never hurt anyone again!
excuse me if im wrong, BUT evidently you have never been to the Philippines. im MARRIED TO STEFFY and we lived there together once we got married. watching videos of life in the Philippines is NOTHING COMPARED TO LIVING THERE AND SEEING THE POVERTY FIRST HAND! my wife STEFFY got her BSN in 2009, we got married in october 2015. i paid off the loan from her aunt that was loaned so she could get her degree. she never took her nclex test but went to work instead and not only supported her immediate family, but also helped her uncles and was paying for her 5 nephews and neices to attend school and college .
if you never sat and ate dinner with someone that lives in poverty in the Philippines, you can not begin to imagine the hardships these people consider an ordinary day!
YES, SHE SHOULD KEEP HER HEAD UP AND NOT LET THIS INCIDENT RUIN HER LIFE AND HAPPINESS!
BUT FOR SOMEONE IN AMERICA TO STEAL FROM THIS YOUNG GIRL, THAT IS A WORSE CRIME THAN BEING A PEDO! I USE TO THINK THEY WERE THE LOWEST FOR OF SCUM AND USE TO SEND THEM TO THE PRISON HOSPITAL QUITE OFTEN, AND THE THIEF THAT STOLE FROM THIS GIRL IS A GREATLY LOWER PIECE OF TRASH THAN THE WORST PEDO!!!
The most logical comment thus far
Hey Derek
Glad it has all worked out. Like you i was concerned about the situation.
Thanks for sharing. 👍 👍
Wow she’s got 12k subscribers now! I hope everything goes well for you angel
There is something off about this guy. She was right not have him too involved.
Mountain Angel is such a beautiful doll and so smart I really enjoyed watching this video she remind me of the Filipino pee I'm sure she will be just like her I hope the best for her
Filipino who?
She is a very intelligent young lady!! I hate to see her used!! So sad.
Indeed
She should let me be her manager..
She will get all the money. I do not need any money for doing it. I can also help her out if she wants to sell stuff. I'm retired and planning on visiting next year after i recover from back surgery. 😊
Make sure you pay me a visit
I am so sorry to hear this. Blessing's Sweet Gel! ~Sir Willie 🙏
What a scumbag. Such a great family and wonderful young lady. Adelaide Australia is watching. 🌎
Thank you, Matt
hey Q you're the one who introduced the dude to the young girl and never followed up you even said you had issues with him and dumped him. what did you expect? thank god she is quick and wise for her young age. lesson learned
Hi 🤗 thnx for that you find Gel, and help she whit that start Vlog, She is so amazing great to see and hear, And I hope that money scam stuff is over, so Gels family can use that money for their better future life 🤗
That sad that happens, hope it get resolved soon, I will go subscribe to her channel for support
Baby sister is like a little filipina pea. God bless her.✌️❤️🙏🙏🙏🇺🇸
How LOW can you go. Stealing from a poor child is as low as it gets. I hope he has a conscience and makes things right, but I doubt it. I hope that they are now in full control of their income and will listen to any advice that you give them, Derek.🥰🏝🇵🇭
Thank you for helping her. New sub here.
That means a lot to me🥰
I’m not watching some little girls blog cause that’s just weird.
But someone that scammed her is upsetting.
I just subscribed to your channel Mountain Angle keep the good work up.
Thank you for your support
You are an honorable person and do really good . Respect, that is exemplary.
Greetings from Germany and God bless you.🙏👍
Wow, thank you
Stay away from underage children. Period.
She is wayyyyy too beautiful and smart to be used and abused . Her personality will take her very farr🙏🏽
@Q Adventures. Just getting to watch this vlog now Derek and man it got you plenty of viewership haha..
Very cool awesome vlog bro and yet horrible to think that someone scammed this little mountain angel,coz Gel is such a lovely polite girl and doesn't deserve to be treated like this, but unfortunately this is happening all over the world now and so many unfortunate people are getting hurt 😢😢
Thankfully your there to help her Derek.🙏
That's real life for sure.
@qadventures indeed it is my friend,coz it happened to me in Makati in July there and especially on my actual birthday,so it's happening everywhere na.
Name him. It's that simple.... NAME HIM !!!
Bro it’s ok you messed up by providing the scammers details to her. Life is about learning and one is never too old. All the good you do far outweighs this incident. I do hope the scammer gets some justice sooner rather than later.
I realized that. Thank you for the support and I have made the community aware without raging cyber warfare
There is probably a lot more to this story. Some random american is not going to bother scamming someone for $250. The work he put in is worth ten times that amount. It just sounds like he does this as side projects and doesnt really put much effort into the communication or contract details. He is probably just paying for his expenses and doesnt want to waste even more effort on explaining every detail. This is why all these intermediate sites that get into the money flow are ill advised. Simply post a stand alone bank name, and account number and anyone who wants to give can wire money directly into that account with zero middlemen and zero percentages except a small transfer fee. Or gcash number, etc. That is the only way I send to anyone overseas. None of this "buy a coffee" or whatever that takes ten percent.
Yeah they should just post their GCash and make people aware they can use various online services to send with no fees taken out. The one I use starts with "Remit", but you can't post the full name here or UA-cam will censor it.
@@stb-pk1fs Exactly, or WU, or whatever service you want to use. Point is that there is no middlemen and no one taking a cut for themselves. I made this suggestion about setting up these people who get interviewed with email addresses and own such money accounts when I first saw these videos but was told all the reasons why not, never anyone looking seriously at the very good reasons why for. Most people will not send money to a third party or middle man service just because of all the percentages that get taken out.
He owes people he manage clarity and honesty
@@qadventures Im not defending a guy I dont even know, Im just saying that this all sounds like a sideline for him and he just wants to do the bare minimum. However, my point about these channels that interview locals, especially girls, and never giving out their contact information without several middlemen is just asking for problems. If the girl is under 18, involve the parent, if older than 18, set them up with a free email account and gcash or other account. That way, if someone wants to donate to them, they can do it easily and without excessive fees. And they can be assured the money goes to who it is meant for. I have said this forever.
Ubaid watching your video in pakistan you are very kind man ❤
Life is short and precious. Better to be kind than not
She speaks english very well for a province kid.
Exceptional
Q bless you brother yes you should mentor her and her family , I am in america my wife is in the Philippines in a mid size city she has a sorry sorry and is very successful, we have no children of our own but a 26 year old niece and her daughter a 6 year old and now a 14 year old niece living with Bela my wife. These girls are from the province and not much chance to grow with education we got them in city and in school we teach much about a better life and watch them so no one takes advantage of them it is so wonderful to watch these girls grow as a sargot father the responsibility is heart warming to see them grow to smart young ladies. You will feel it I will be moving back home there in Feb after my business here in states is handed over and a surgery heals I hope someday I can visit you another person with a good heart both my wife and I applaud you there is still good people in this world keep up your channel great job Brother
Thank you, Sean. Feedbacks from folks like yourself who have walked the walk and understand the local ways are valuable to me
Bless
Best wishes
This is creepy. The Philippines is very strict when it comes to interactions between foreigners and children. Nobody should be dealing with this girl. Nobody.
Very naive in its concept. A poor Asian 12 year old girl with a You Tube channel. What could possibly go wrong? Best wishes to Gel.
Who is the one who started her on this UA-cam journey? 😂😂😂😂😂
@Wesna269 you don't deal with children in the Philippines under ANY circumstances. Especially this Q guy. All it takes is one misunderstanding or indiscretion, and bad things can happen.
@@TheSocioPat7786 💯
@@TheSocioPat7786 : There’s a huge red flag with this character.
This actually happen to a guy in my country he had 70k subscribers and his manager was in the UK, big red flags the guy was so far away but he ended up giving up on the channel and started a new one. I wouldn't trust Noone "especially" someone overseas looking over my channel.
You are right. I was naive in the beginning
That dude sound's like a Predator..
Ok
@qadventures He not like you a man of honour and integrity 👌
Too bad there's people like that!
Im glad I was able to talk some sense to the host I moderate for and prevented her to decline his offer to gain managers access for. But she was close to add him. Thing is, I know that other vlogger as well and know lots more in background and how things flow in the background.
Edit: Indeed he also has managers access to that vlogger who visited Gel sometimes.
May I ask for you to reach out via messenger next week? I would love to know what you know
@@qadventures Sure, will do 👍🏼
Good advice
Glad you think so!
Great advice! What is the name of Gel’s channel?

Girlchild, you are a fantastic and wonderful human being and so is your family. How in the hell did this person gain access to her finances?

Her future is so bright she has to wear sunglasses. 😎
Derek this looks very bad. He should be investigated. Be careful how you deal with kids and what words to use around kids. If you dont have the words to say dont say anything. Your not good with ad-libbing have a script and work the script. But get this guy investigated
I am doing that, Andy. I will put it on blast once all the facts are straight
Sorry for it happen Gel . It happen to lots of people online so be careful. Just keep on your good work there is a lot of lot of people love watching your work. Have a nice day and bless you all. 🙏🫶💐👸🏻💐

Poor kid!!
Very unfortunate.
Lessons learned. Never trust anyone with your money.
I'm watching her channel since a few months
Found by your Q channel.
Let's hope this video gives her more views and subscribers to make her channel bigger.
Btw om her own element she looks big. Next to you she's so little 😅
I'm small too so no offense 😄
No offense at all. Less additives in our food supply here, so the locals' heights and weight are more natural
Something unusual America’s stuff everything up for the rest of the world
WHAT IS HER YT CHANNELS NAME SO I CAN WATCH HER VIDEOS
@mountainangeldiaries
You are a good man, but I think you shouldn’t have left her for wolfs.😱
Sorry, just my angry thought,😡🤔🇬🇧
Completely understand. I live 3 hrs away and can only advise and mentor. Final decisions are made by her parents
She’s just so awesome!!! Thank you sir for all u do
Not knowing All that’s going on. And understanding where she lives, and her family lifestyle. Being scammed and used from all angles. Tacking candy from a baby. ??????????
You are pretty dead on, Eddy
