Fell myself into one scam, however felt it in time..
I was walking in Nanjing road in search in fact to eat a little thing.. one first girl approached me... said no as she was not my style.. then another one later came to me and started to talk..quite friendly actually and not the style bad girl, more the style sweet gf.. made about few hundred meters with her and finally asked her what she wanted to do.. may be go for drink or eat something first.. more the gf experience in fact.. after walking about 5 more minutes in Nanjing road she brought me to a massageplanete bar... byut we had to cross first a restaurant where quite lot of people were eating..
was not in mud for a beer, ordered a capuccino and she took a coke with alcool.. barmaid came with some additional plates of peanuts, fruits and the drinks... After abt 15 minutes dicussion, she called a friend on the phone and after 5 minutes this second girl poped-up asking if she can join... said why not..
New comer girl ordered some drink and barmaid came with 5 glasses! alcool plus a coke...
as started to feel the scam coming ( thanks guys for the previous threads !!) I warned them that I had only a few money on me as I never take my wallet and no credit cards...
We ordered the check.. and ooooh surprise it was 2550Rmb ! I almost laugh, thinking about my readings into this web, and I repeated that my only belongings were 300 Rmb.. They were astonished that I could wlk in Shanghai with only 300 Rmb on me as I had my backpack.. but I poped out a few more 10 and 20s saying that this was all and only my taxi fare for returning...
The 'nice girl' that brought to me started to ask that if she was paying, if I could refund her at my hotel.. so I said that I did not agree to pay such amount for just few drinks in this crappy place.. my next move was then to get out my phone, and I said I am so sorry I have no more money, but dont worry, I will call myself the police and explain my case...
This wa sinstant, both girls took out their wallet and got out 1000Rmb each as walking to the cashier and 'pretented ' to pay for the bill..then she said a witer will accompany you at your hotel for refund... I answered to her that she was a cute girl, so I did not want trouble for her, so I will pay some but to her personally if she want to come.. not to any waiter...
Finally, we took the elevator down and arrived in the street, they turned unhappy and left in opposite direction..
morality: really take only what you can afford to loose on you... no more and no credit cards or other valuables...
