In a recent Facebook post, Whamos thanked God, his doctors, nurses, family, and supporters for taking care of him during his illness. His caption read:

“THANK YOU LORD 😘 PAGALINGIN NYO PO AKO KAAGAD PARA MAKAPAG TRABAHO NAPO ULIT AKO ❤️🙏🏻
THANK YOU PO SA LAHAT NG DOCTORS/NURSES NA NAG ALAGA SAKEN LALO NA SA MAHAL KONG ASAWA Antonette Gail, kay Jelai at mommy ❤️🥰
THANK YOU DIN PO SA MGA NAG ALALA PARA SAKEN ❤️🙏🏻.”

However, what drew criticism was his comment below the post, where he plugged an online gambling game, writing:

“SA MGA GUSTONG MAG LARO BAKA IKAW NA SUNOD SWERTEHIN SA GAME NATO 👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻 REGISTERD NA ❤️🥰.”

Many netizens found the timing insensitive and irresponsible, pointing out that promoting gambling while being hospitalized sets a poor example. Comments quickly poured in:

“Thank you Lord! Sabay promote ng sugal! Arayy ko!”
“Get well condolence promote pa ng sugal.”
“Kung mawawala ka sa server gumawa ka naman ng isang tama sa isang libong mali mo. Sana mawipe ka na sa server.”

Whamos is not alone in facing backlash. More and more content creators are being heavily criticized for endorsing online gambling, with netizens warning about its risks and the negative influence it can have on young followers.

Despite the backlash, Whamos has yet to respond directly to the criticism. For now, the post remains up, sparking debates on how far influencers should go when it comes to sponsored content—even when they’re unwell.
