VenusVictrix Rides Again!

venusvictrix says: My apologies for disappearing. My past few days have been spent trying to sell some of my things. I need the cash to pay my bills. I take daily medications for my asthma, so the medicine bills can add up to a pretty penny.

The Avenger

Very sorry to hear of your hardship; very glad you’ve come to us. Hopefully, you will soon be breathing more easily.

If Mariano del Rosario lll paid me back what he owed me, I wouldnt be in tight financial straits.

So! Mariano del Rosario III borrowed US$55,000 from you — US$55,000 being your inheritance when your mother died — but Mariano del Rosario III has not paid you back, though the loan was supposed to be a temporary “bridge,” in 2004? And you loaned this money to Mariano del Rosario III because Mariano del Rosario III is the brother of one of your (late) mother’s best friends, because Mariano del Rosario III comes from a prominent family, and because Mariano del Rosario III was once an executive at Lucent Technologies?

Yes, thats his name, Mariano del Rosario lll. The nickname he used when he was here in Asia is “Juni”. His birthday is Jan 10,1947, born in New YorK City.

Might you be referring to the MARIANO DEL ROSARIO who says he’s the President and owner of Global Call International, Inc?

This Mariano del Rosario says he went to the University of San Francisco — a Jesuit school (one can major in Con-Artistry at a Jesuit school?! Jesus must be thrilled).

This Mariano del Rosario also claims to have been “Country Manager – Fiber Optics at Lucent Technologies” and “Vice President Information Technology at Concorde Trading Corp.” This Mariano del Rosario certainly sounds like your Mariano del Rosario (III)!

And it looks as though your MARIANO DEL ROSARIO III gets around. Here he is in the Philippines, where he again lists himself as President of Global Call International, Inc., and lists his email address as mariodjuni@aol.com

Mariano del Rosario III

Mariano del Rosario is on plaxo, too! Where he also uses the name “Mike.” And the name “Juan.” Love the “corporate” photo. Maybe he should’ve invested some of your US$55,000 in a studio shoot.

I wonder if Mariano del Rosario’s plaxo friends Rhizaldy Reblora, Chifai Yeung, George Hackett, Jon P Lowry, Gene McCubbin, Liza del Rosario, Marie-Marguerite Agcaoili, Surj Sondhi, Tad Abello, and Rolando Gosiengfiao know he’s a flim-flam man. Bet you wish someone had warned you about Mariano del Rosario before you loaned him US$55,000!

Interesting that he says he lives in Burlingame. Yet I’ve found no listings for Mariano del Rosario in Burlingame. Loads in San Mateo, though! But if you want to impress someone in the Bay Area, you sure as hell don’t tell them you live in San Mateo. Burlingame sounds much better (though I’m guessing Mariano del Rosario doesn’t invite potential marks to his home — an apartment in San Mateo? Those who prefer to have no assets which might be found and attached tend to rent rather than own. And unless things have changed, radically, there are no apartment complexes in Burlingame). I could believe Mariano del Rosario has a box at the Burlingame post office. That’d be a typical con-artist move.

I have spoken to his sister regarding Mariano’s debt to me. She said she would talk to him. That was last year. Since then, nothing from her.

Let me get this straight:  Mariano del Rosario’s sister was one of your late mother’s best friends, Mariano del Rosario’s sister introduced you to Mariano del Rosario, and Mariano del Rosario’s sister did not warn you about her brother (Mariano del Rosario).

So you loaned Mariano del Rosario US$55,000, then Mariano del Rosario alternated between refusing to repay you and giving you bad checks, you spoke with Mariano del Rosario’s sister about this debt, she promised to speak with her brother, Mariano del Rosario, and then she — the sister of Mariano del Rosario, a close friend of your late mother, a woman from a very wealthy family who could easily cover this debt and seek redress from her brother (Mariano del Rosario) — completely ignores you?

What’s Mariano del Rosario’s sister’s name.

If you can get any information about Mariano del Rosario lll, his present whereabouts, please let me know. All I have is a telephone number in CA which he doesnt answer.

Looks as though he’s iffy all over the place. He’s got a very meagre presence in a Philippine government catalog, and has no jobs to offer on a call-center directory job site.

Wouldn’t want to be Micronetics International, Inc! Mariano del Rosario seems to have hitched his wagon to their star. Although…let’s not jump to conclusions. Micronetics International, Inc could also be just another front for Mariano del Rosario. A corporate sock-puppet.

“Global Call International, Inc. is an affiliate of Micronetics International, Inc. Micronetics is a five-year-old company whose management has over one hundred collective years of professional experience in telecoms and computer systems. Global Call International was formed in response to the need for cost-effective and feature-rich call center solutions here in the Philippines. GCI has been tapped to be the exclusive distributor of Parsec Technologies call center software in the Philippines.”

Do you suppose Mariano del Rosario’s Micronetics International is this bunch? They’re also associated through this guide to companies in the Philippines — where editing profiles to correct mistakes is encouraged! I would suggest you, as the aggrieved party, might wish to add a comment regarding Mariano del Rosario and Global Call International, Inc.

It’s funny that a big cheese like Mariano del Rosario wouldn’t have a website for Global Call International, Inc. How does one pull off tech scams, in this day and age, without a website?! I’m guessing one goes after small fish rather than big. Although US$55,000 might seem like a lot of money to us, it’s a pittance in terms of corporate theft. Which means Mariano del Rosario isn’t even in the big leagues as a scammer.

Which leaves the impression that Mariano del Rosario targets mini-marks, and, as he (Mariano del Rosario) did with you, Mariano del Rosario (assisted by his alter egos, “Mike,” “Juan” and “Juni”) then absconds with their entire life savings (and inheritances). Even more reason to stop Mariano del Rosario in his tracks.

It’s interesting to note that Global Call International, Inc. is listed at ncc.gov.ph with the same Makati City address and a website (globequest.com.ph), but the contact email is rrcagurangan@globetel.com.ph (does that name look familiar to you?).

Many thanks again!

You’re most welcome, VenusVictrix! I’ll keep working on this — and cannot wait for you to divulge the name of the sister who introduced you to Mariano del Rosario, the man who borrowed US$55,000 dollars from you and who then gave you sorry excuses and bad checks.

This should prove very interesting. Let’s hope we can put the kibosh on his ability to ensnare others in his web. Maybe we can even get new accommodations for him, just down the hall from Madoff (unless Madoff has Ken Lay’s plastic surgeon on stand-by, awaiting Madoff’s “heart attack”).

Although I would never wish your situation upon anyone, I am hoping that other victims of Mariano del Rosario scams will come out of the woodwork. I hope potential victims of Mariano del Rosario scams see this and run! And I sincerely hope his family (especially the sister of Mariano del Rosario who introduced you to Mariano del Rosario) will assist you in getting your money back.

It’s very sad that going to Jesuit schools and daily mass is still such a good cover for con artists. I’ll never understand the reverence given to an organization which amasses wealth (“in God’s name”) as the masses starve. How many gold rooms would Jesus have? How many gold rooms does Mariano del Rosario desire? On the other hand, perhaps Mariano del Rosario would be satisfied merely to get out of his apartment in San Mateo. He (Mariano del Rosario) would have much bigger hauls were he (Mariano del Rosario) running his cons out of a mansion in Burlingame…
