I think I got scammed by a girl from a dating website!

It is part of the culture to bring a friend along on a first date... it is safer for the lady and if she is serious about a relationship, then she gets to have her friends opinion too. My wife was very traditional and we had many such dates. She would ask first and for me it was ok. I enjoyed the company and meeting her friends as well. There was no scam about it, we did not go to silly cultural shows as the OP, but it was expected that I pay the tab and I knew that when I asked her out. It was never expensive for me. 

Maybe, IF meeting traditional female from a lower socio-economic demographic and perhaps those who have no confidence in their ability to evaluate their perspective date, they want 'backup'.... 

 

But in this case.....  She was just another working girl trying to fleece her mark... So many obvious red-flags throughout the story.

 

It's amazing guys lack the power to draw a line and as soon as that line is even remotely approached they cannot walk away.... 

- First flag, drink and stay over (IF the Op is, she most certainly isn't looking for a long term relationship).

- Cultural show / deposit ???? never even heard of such a thing.

She wanted to get drunk ( red flag?) and then spend the night with me at a nice hotel I was staying at.

Why not? They look simply lovely. Surprising what a bit of Sellotape can do.

They are cute as <deleted> but that is not the point. If the poster took the picture thenselves, reposting it a <deleted>ty thing to do.  If they are reposting, then its simply pathetic.

Why would you feel the need to post that?

To cheer up us forum members...    Perhaps you'd like a photo of a lovely beach and romantic sunset but that would fall out of context... 

 

OMF clearly has a full catalogue of such photos !!!!

Did she turn out the light when you were having sex? This is a clear sign she doesn't want to see you, if possible.

I don't want to brag, but over the years I had hundreds of "meetings". I don't think any girl ever cared about the light on or off or whatever.

3000 Bhat for educational purpose is quite reasonable.

 Go ahead, enjoy your holiday, with care!

Exactly, the friend gets a free lunch etc they are scamming some guys

[cjinchiangrai]

Count yourself lucky, you got off dirt cheap.

[NoDisplayName]

Meet on internet site.

First in person "date" she says "Oh, you so hansum.  We get drunk and screw."

Followed by "You give me money now."

Then soon thereafter "Ok, Joe, you give me more money now.  You numbah one!"

When you hesitate she asks "You no wanna screw?"

 

No, no red flags there.

I am not sure how old you are or how naïve you are but sir when you meet a girl at the restaurant and then she tells you another place is a 3000 that cover charge. That’s when you just said I’m jumping off this train TIT.

[spidermike007]

Consider yourself fortunate. She seems to have been quite cunning. Alot of guys would have gone in hook, line and sinker. We have all heard far worse horror stories.

 

I stopped dating a long time ago. But, when I did date, my limit was a 30 minute meeting at a coffee shop. If I liked her, we could extend that. If not, see ya!

A reported post discussing prostitution and a post making defamatory & libelous claims have been removed.

 

7. You will not post defamatory or libelous comments. Defamation is the issuance of a statement about another person or business which causes that person or business to suffer harm or loss. A statement does not have to be false to be defamatory. Libel is when the defamatory statement is published either as a drawing, picture, painting, motion picture, film, or letters made visible by any means or by broadcasting, dissemination or propagation by any other means. Defamation is both a civil and criminal charge in Thailand and elsewhere in ASEAN.

 

29. You will not discuss the specifics of prostitution. Although Thailand has a visible sex industry and acknowledgement of that fact is not forbidden, ASEAN NOW is not the place to seek or give information on this topic. ASEAN NOW seeks to protect children and other at risk groups from exploitation on the internet. Any content that appears to be inappropriate or exploitative will be removed.

Or, to put it another way, if you're paying her, she's not your date / girlfriend, you're HER customer!

Exactly what i said - to put it more clearly, (just for you) if you think you're out on a date and are asked for money, other than for the food, drink, etc then you're actually with a hooker - anywhere in the world. Clear enough for you?

I thought of calling police and reporting... but I didn't because, I had an early flight next morning and I felt it was not worth fighting for 3K Baht.

Shouldn't tell any 'fun-time girl' you are leaving the next day.

I've known 2 guys years ago who had their final bit of fun the night before they had to depart for home. They each got 2 girls each for the night. They had their flings and the next day in the morning realised some belongings were missing. One guy had a camera stolen, I can't recall what the other guy lost.

 

Both didn't have enough time to make a police report or to track them down. But both learned their lesson on their next visits here.

You have to be skeptical on those dates, i had one where she brought a friend, too many suckers out there who just pay for anything. The 3k invite should have been a big no thanks 

I enjoyed a few years back one of the many stories an AUS-US dude who had a site.. said.. in CM.. long story short ended up with 4-5 girls at restaurant.. they loaded the table right up.. he let em ask their friends and load up, excused himselt for toilet and did a runner... ha ha... good one, back at ya Biaches

No its not a scam.  She had to leave in a hurry because her father took seriously ill and was rushed to hospital.  She still wants to stay in the big bed in the big hotel with you but she needs a small 15,000 deposit for the doctors before she can leave the hospital.  Then the doctors can save the buffalo dad,  Shes asks so kindly if you can pass the deposit through me to her to make sure its all safe!  She misses you!

I had a girlfriend do the same.  Said we were going to one of those Thai cabarets in Silom for dinner.  It wasnt till we started out for the restaurant that I noted the followers shadowing us and then being placed at a very large table that I smelt a scam.  It was a pleasant evening till the bill came which was quickly run around the table stopping at me.  I quietly pulled out my pen, circled what I and my girl had eaten, left that amount plus 20 baht tip on the saucer, and passed it to the next girl at the table.  The look on some of those faces!  The gf was not exactly trying to rip me off as such, she had always been honest before, but ratherwas trying to show-off about having a farang bf.  It backfired....som nom na!

[xtrnuno41]

Yup there was a scam going on and you should know it.

IF they start talking about money for seems like innocent things.

There are scams and they are way more worse, you can end up beaten or even dead.

And they can be in all countries and not only by women.

You know the jetski scam in Thailand?! You take the jetski, come back later and then they say you damaged the jetski, as you didnt check the jetski. But they want you to pay.

 

But there are also longterm scams. You marry a woman, they live on you and after some years (maybe even 20 years) they divorce from you, get the money and pension and leave. Heard this story, 2 Philippines sisters, married with same nation guys. After being married long time and the guys working , the guys went for pension and they were planning on what to do as for travelling. However the sisters had other plans, they divorced, got all money out and went back to Philippines to have good live, single.

 

NAh, just red some further in Asian now

That also could be a scam, you go and drink there. You get the bill presented, which is real high comparing to what you drank. If you dont pay then some guys will come and beat you up. The bill maybe would be $20, but you end up with bill of $800. It is also a world running scam.
