The rider's unfortunate story went viral online after a concerned netizen, who was also from one of the stores that the rider bought the goods from, uploaded it.

The story was uploaded by Ronzy Alipato and the rider concerned was JM Palomo of Bacolod City.

Ronzy narrated that the scammer ordered P6,000 worth of food and that when he was already on his way to deliver the food to the clinic, the scammer called again and asked him to buy other foodstuff and soda.

Worse, he was asked to load P1,000 each for the alleged five doctors, and when he could not produce the said amount, the scammer talked to the cashier, with a promise that a white Innova is on its way to make payment.

When the P1,000 load was delivered, the scammer could no longer be contacted.

Alipato warned all riders about such scammers and also sought help for the poor rider.
