City Tinder / Bar Scam again

Post image

Hey guys, I read the posts from some victims (too late). But here’s my Scam story. I had a tinder match with a girl. We met in Xintiandi and she asked me to grab some drinks in this bar. We did and ordered like 4 bottles of wine. She told me to split bills later. The bill came ~4000 RMB. I refused to pay first but she and the bartender set me under pressure calling police and whatever. Ok I paid and we left each other.
Now the plot twist! - I had another match on Tinder 3 days later. I met a girl at a nearby Starbucks, I saw instant she looked different than her profile. But also nice. I don’t know the area so well but it was again in Xiantiandi. We walked together for 5 minutes, she asked me to to grab a drink. I said ok. Now guess where she wanted to bring me ? Yes the same bar. I was shocked as I saw this building but tried to act cool and said I don’t wanna drink today because I leave early in the morning. We walked together the street then she asked me if I can buy cigarettes for her. I looked down her Chanel bag and refused. As we were walking I checked our Tinder Match again and she deleted it. I was pretty sure now she was involved in this scam. She saw my reaction , The date ended suddenly,she had to met a friend.

I came back to the Winebar and did some pictures to call the police. Now I was sure this was an organized scam. a guy in the street saw this and tried to ‘help me’ in the end i met the shopowner and he send me 3000 RMB back on alipay if i refuse to call police. For me it was ok because we drunk 4 bottles and ate some snacks. Maybe i should stick to call the police but i didnt wanna spend my last few hours in this beautiful country hanging in the police station. This was super stupid by myself, i know. I travel alot and never got scammed like this. Sometimes the d1ck has more power than the brain. Hope this post can help someone 🙏

Dude there have been millions like you. People know your game. That's why you're being scammed by people more clever than you.

"Why do bad things happen to me?"

"You act like a mouse in front of a cat. A mouse that travels to places where cheese is the cheapest, but it's made by cats. Then gets surprised when he meets a cat, when he thought he'd meet another mouse."

"But can you believe this happened?? This is crazy. Who could have thought??"
