BEWARE OF DIOFELI TOMIKO SABAS CHAVES




Let me share with you my experience with Diofeli Tomiko S Chaves and her modus operandi to warn you and so you will not be a victim of Diofeli Tomiko. SHE IS A SWINDLER, A THEIF, A DECEIT AND SOMEONE WHOM YOU CAN NEVER TRUST…

I met her on November 22, 2008. She alleged the following info about herself:
1. Her name is Diofeli Tomiko Chaves Tan and her nickname is Tami
2. Her parents are David Y. Tan and Ma. Lourdes Chaves Tan
3. Her parents live in UK bcoz his father is the Phil consul to UK
4. She owns a boutique in Greenhills and a pawnshop in Sta Lucia Mall in Cainta
5. She lives in her own condo unit at East Ortigas Mansion, 506 Ortigas Ave. Extn, Pasig

On December 4, 2008, Tami requested that I email her an ‘Authority To Sell’ for two of our real estate properties for sale. She said she has a buyer, her aunt, sister of her mom.

After a week, Diofeli Tomiko alleged that her aunt who lives in Lucban, Quezon had already inspected the property for sale in San Pablo City, likes it and will buy it.

On December 12, 2008, Tami requested me to prepare Contract to Sell. She alleged that her aunt is married to a German national and they are leaving for Germany on December 19 to spend the Christmas season there and would like to finalize the sale before they leave for Germany.

On December 18, Tami asked me if I have account in a certain bank bcoz the payment for the property will be transfered via internet banking to our account. She also requested for 2 of my valid IDs which according to her will be required by the bank. I gave her my bank account # and photocopy of my 2 valid IDs.

The following day, Tami alleged that she had already submitted the ‘Contract to Sell’, our bank account # and the photocopy of my 2 IDs to the bank manager. She advised us to just wait for the payment to be credited to our account.

On January 5, the 1st banking day of the year, we found out the following:
The payment for the purchase of the property, contrary to her allegation that it will be sent via internet banking from Germany, was actually in check. The check was deposited to our account and the amount was posted in our passbook. However the check payment bounced. Reason – Account Closed.
On December 27, knowing our account # and having a photocopy of my 2 valid IDs, she went to the bank to withdraw from our account with forged signature on the withdrawal slip. Luckily, she does not have the passbook and the Asst Mgr of the bank noticed the big discrepancy in my signature, so she was not allowed to withdraw.

In that span of a little more than a month, Tami befriended my family, gained our confidence and we were almost swindled. If you know Diofeli Tomika, aka Diofeli Tomiko Sabas Chaves or Diofeli Tomiko C. Tan, beware, you may be her next victim.
