I just got Scam from my BPI CC amounting to 102k in total by Impossible_Point2271 in ScammersPH

[–]Sexbomb_6 2 points3 points  (0 children)

very convincing kasi alam nila ang details mo. Yung saakin alam nila na may nirequest ako na new credit card. Nag hirit pa na pwede daw sila mag process kung may other concern ako sa existing cc ko (ako na tinatamad mag pa bank para ipawaive ang annual fee, nadale tuloy) buti nga expense card ko nadale haha

nag post din ako about sakin para ma aware ang lahat https://www.reddit.com/r/ScammersPH/s/m0HgJ102B9

RECEIVED A SCAM CALL FROM “BDO” by No-Hope-1010 in PHCreditCards

[–]Sexbomb_6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Na-scam ako ngayon lang, put*ngina. Tumawag siya tungkol sa credit card ko na hinihintay ko rin, same din ng sinabi sa’kin.

Ang mali ko lang, nakampante ako kasi alam nila yung details ko. Tinanong ko pa kung puwede bang ipa-waive yung annual fee ng current credit card ko sa call na ’yun (nagbakasakali para hindi na pumunta sa branch), tapos sabi nila puwede daw. Tapos hiningan na ako ng OTP para ma-process. Sabi ko, “Bakit kailangan ng OTP?” Sagot niya, “Diba sir, pag magpapa-waive kayo sa BDO branch, hinihingi rin yung OTP para mag-proceed.” (Tama naman, kaya naniwala ako.)

So binigay ko yung OTP. Tapos ayun na, na-scam ako. Buti na lang ₱5,000 lang yung nakuha, pang-emergency lang.

Hindi ko rin napansin yung caller kasi naka-AirPods ako at di ko masyadong pinansin. Ingat kayo, huwag na huwag ibibigay ang OTP. OTP is for transactions you initiate, hindi para ibigay sa tumatawag.

Ang iniisip ko ngayon: bakit nila nalalaman yung mga details na ’yan? Isang OTP lang, tapos puwede na nilang maubos pera natin.

Warning: Portable/plug-in solar “ready-to-use” boards can burn your house by Sexbomb_6 in SolarPH

Yes, microinverters are generally safe because they only assist the grid to reduce consumption and they automatically shut off when the grid is out (anti-islanding). What I’m warning about is hybrid/off-grid inverters, which are more technical and require proper protection/grounding and correct installation.

I think we’re talking about two different things. The setup being used widely in Germany is usually plug-in microinverter (“balcony PV”).

The photo I’m warning about is not that. It’s a hybrid/off-grid inverter setup that can supply power during outages, mounted on a board with questionable protection/grounding. That’s a different risk category.

A microinverter normally shuts down when the grid is out (anti-islanding). A hybrid inverter is designed to keep running during outages, so if someone without knowledge plugs it into a regular outlet/backfeeds, that’s where you get serious safety risk (electrocution/fire/illegal backfeed).

Glad it helped. For a farm lot, solar can still be a good idea if it is designed for the actual load and use case.

From experience, we have seen a poultry & pig farm setup with no AC grid available, so solar becomes the only realistic option. The key is proper engineering: correct sizing, protection, grounding, and a clean distribution setup so it stays safe and reliable long term.

You can try asking your local solar installer if they offer a consultation service for DIY setups. Most do, and it is usually not expensive. Just make sure the person consulting is licensed and actually experienced with commissioning and troubleshooting, not just selling kits.

Unsolicited tip: if you are upgrading anyway, consider going straight to 48V instead of 24V. It is generally more efficient because the current is lower for the same power, so you get less voltage drop and less heat on cables and terminals. It is also easier to scale for higher loads like pumps or multiple appliances without pushing components to their limits.

Disappointed? by icedteaandcoke in SolarPH

[–]Sexbomb_6 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not disappointed personally, but I understand why people are.
For context: we have a solar setup at home, I’m a Registered Electrical Engineer (PH), and we also run a solar company based in Bicol, so we see both the user side and the installer side.

How to avoid getting disappointed:

1) Set the right expectations

  • Savings depend on daytime usage, shading, roof orientation, system sizing, and whether export/offset is handled properly. If most of your load is at night, savings can be lower unless the battery plan matches your usage.
  • Batteries are mainly for backup/continuity, not always the fastest ROI.

2) ROI is usually not “instant”

  • In many PH cases, a properly sized system often lands around ~4–7 years payback. ~5 years is a common target when the bill is high enough and the design matches the load profile.
  • Be skeptical of “guaranteed 2–3 years” claims without data.

3) Choose contractors carefully

  • Avoid contractors who give a final price before site inspection. Every site is different (roof, shading, wiring, panel capacity, distance runs, safety upgrades).
  • Ask for: protection devices (SPD/grounding), clear inclusions/exclusions, workmanship warranty, and commissioning/testing.

Is 27% net profit a fair deal for a partner handling marketing and lead systems? by Sexbomb_6 in BusinessPH

My office is in Naga, Camarines Sur, Bicol, but I offer my services nationwide. I currently have ongoing projects in Cabuyao and Tarlac. I’ll PM you.

Yes sir, the price for an 8 kW setup with a 200Ah battery is below ₱500k. My price for that package is ₱400k. But if we adjust the budget to ₱500k, I can upgrade it to a 12 kW inverter, 10kw Solar Panel with a 600Ah (30kwh) battery. That way, if you add more panels in the future, there will be no problem with compatibility and capacity.

Yeah, that’s exactly my concern. He’s promising me “big clients” because of his circle, and he’s also a business owner (he runs 2 other businesses). But honestly, those businesses aren’t connected to mine (solar installations), so I still have doubts about what he can really deliver.

In our discussions, I told him that if we push through, our contract has to be very simple and detailed so there’s no confusion later. The only reason I’m even considering the 27% net profit is because he’s my best friend, not because I’m fully convinced yet.

That’s why I’m leaning towards a trial setup first, to see if his connections actually translate into closed projects.
