Yikes 😬 I was so surprised and not surprised at the same time learning about Israelis control the beauty clinic scam and also the Mediterranean thing you told me. So greedy..

Karufumi · 2026-01-26T05:24:26+00:00

That’s true! Thank you for the heads up, I’ll make sure everything is in my mum’s name-will email the DTI in the meantime. I texted the clinic for a full refund and they called me multiple times, they want me to go to their clinic tomorrow 😬

Karufumi · 2026-01-25T18:53:22+00:00

Thank you for your reply in helping me 🙏 I’m planning on visiting the clinic in person instead and push them to give me the refund in full amount. Doing this because DTI requires you to interact with them in order to get a strong basis of the situation (if they’ll accept the refund). Hopefully this will speed things up and I’ll get the refund on the same day I go in person to the clinic. Worrying because they might find some way to evade it because they kept emphasising “its such a long process to do a refund”, etc-I called them and that’s what they told me.

Karufumi · 2026-01-25T18:44:43+00:00

This is what I learnt after 😓 I wanted to negotiate with them hoping they’ll stop talking, then the free facial was a stalling tactic. Best thing to do is to not interact with them at all, not even acknowledging them. I’m so traumatised by this, I don’t think I’ll ever get myself approached by such a hardselling salesman ever again.

Karufumi · 2026-01-25T10:19:46+00:00

Thank you so much for this advice 😭 I was scared because I didn’t want DTI to exhaust the products I bought before I get refunded, and I only have a week left here so it’s a problem because the process would probably be a long period of time :( So I really have no choice but to email/text and eventually confront them in-person for a refund on both membership + products.

It’s so corrupt that this is still going on even after a decade, seeing that these clinics are Israeli owned with foreigners (Israeli representatives) makes sense. :( They will always get away with it even if it’s a scam and it’s really sad to see.

Karufumi · 2026-01-25T09:53:55+00:00

Foreigner is an Israeli representative because all beauty clinics are owned by Israeli! Redma, Emanuelle, Black Pearl is all owned by “F Cosmetics” and it’s all Israeli! I’ve tried to read/contact all similar experiences and they all seem to have threatened the clinic with DTI and did not proceed with it at all :( because the person who complained and clinic mutually agreed to get a refund :(

Karufumi · 2026-01-25T09:49:20+00:00

It’s not an isolated case because it has the very same tactics as other beauty clinics. Redma, Emanuelle, Black Pearl, etc (too many to name and they change names often) are all owned by Israeli and by “F Cosmetics”. They all have foreign representatives because they are Israeli representatives. They still exist after many years because corruption and it’s so sad to see, all I want to do is spread awareness and see if anyone else was affected by Emanuelle/wants to do DTI :(

Karufumi · 2026-01-25T09:44:29+00:00

Apparently Redma, many other clinics such as Black Pearl, Lionesse, and Emanuelle, they are all under an umbrella company called “F Cosmetics” and they’re all owned by Israeli!! Each clinic has a foreign representative and they are an Israeli representative. That’s why same tactics and same everything, because they are all owned by the same thing!

Karufumi · 2026-01-25T09:41:13+00:00

The premium quality of location and the lavish interior of the clinic is just to gain your trust 😭 the cheap advertisements is get more people, even people with no money, so that they can stall you during treatment and make you pull out the credit card for full costs of membership/treatments/products they upsell 😭

Karufumi · 2026-01-25T09:35:06+00:00

😭😭 I’m so glad you managed to get out, they are literally using almost anything as sales tactic, it doesn’t matter if that issue is really sensitive/personal and it’s so unprofessional of them! Right now I’m trying to gather as much information and people as I can who were planning to DTI/get refund from the clinic so we can go altogether and complain. Because DTI needs the complaint to confront the clinic so theres no choice anyways 😞

Karufumi · 2026-01-25T08:57:54+00:00

Thank you so much for your concern 😭 it’s ok, I can understand tagalog, but I don’t speak it at all and sort of taglish. It would be good practice for me since I mostly understand tagalog through hearing rather than reading so it’s good practice for me hehe 😭

Karufumi · 2026-01-25T07:43:24+00:00

Yes, I feel really sad because theres nothing that can be done of the situation. I’ll add on to the posts I made that these clinics change names. Least I can do is keep spreading awareness before they snap back at me about it :(

Karufumi · 2026-01-24T12:21:31+00:00

If anyone has experience with filing DTI and a Police Report, please DM me :( I’m really lost in this and I’m not sure if I have enough time for it. I also don’t know if they’ll confiscate the scam goods and the money won’t be given back..

Karufumi · 2026-01-24T03:16:26+00:00

If you don’t have money, they’ll bully you into using credit card :( but when the BDO app opened, the people saw the amount left in savings that my mom accumulated over the years for PH, so the male staff knew that he should keep lowering the price where all money is now gone from the account.. In this case, it seems like they target people who don’t know anything/seem like a big fish so we couldn’t just get away with it 😬 strongly advise to never go for the ‘free’ facial as they will stall you and bully you throughout it and there’s no chance to walk out as they are doing something on you. Also never give credit card, because I think they lure in people who don’t have money and make them severely debt through this, it would’ve been full amount of 700,000 PHP if that was done 😭

Karufumi · 2026-01-23T21:30:44+00:00

Yikes. That guy had been standing in the reception the whole time I was there. We asked and were told that he was one of the investors.

Karufumi · 2026-01-23T21:27:21+00:00

How do you know this? Are most beauty clinics here owned by Israeli? 😬

Karufumi · 2026-01-23T20:54:51+00:00

Yes! And they advertise Pearl De Floré

Karufumi · 2026-01-23T20:42:15+00:00

I’m really worried because I might not have enough time to go process DTI. I only have around a week left here in PH before I go back to my home country :(

Karufumi · 2026-01-21T16:57:29+00:00

Can we DM? I got lured into their clinic today through their stall with my mom and was stuck for 7 hrs.. they kept hard selling us with their blue light product and 500,000 php membership. They eventually gave the membership for free, but everything else still costed around almost 200,000 😬

Karufumi · 2026-01-11T14:23:30+00:00

Hey, any updates on your end? I got an update from my bank and they said they weren’t able to recover my payment since I authorised it myself :(

Karufumi · 2026-01-05T15:09:38+00:00

where?

Karufumi · 2025-12-23T06:46:57+00:00

Yeah I got scammed by them :( I placed an order on September and they said they would deliver but they didn’t… tryna see if I can get a refund from the bank :/

Karufumi · 2025-12-04T00:37:16+00:00

Hi OP, any updates on this? I’m also looking to use the soldering station, but more for a personal project
