Shanghai Trip

[iamthewalrus]

Honestly to shanghai is on a different level to thailand so there is no comparison

Maybe elaborate Mate, as you can read this ('different level' ) two ways.

Just sharing my horrific experience in Shanghai so all you brothers don’t go through this .
I am well travelled , used to live in London , Bangkok , Hong Kong , Singapore and Bangkok so I don’t usually get scammed easily .
I was approached by one of the girls walking on Nanjing street. She asked for a coffee and said wanted to learn English. We talked for 30 mins , had a coffee , took a small walk and She got a little friendly with me..
and then told me that she worked as a part time massage therapist and asked me if I wanted to see the shop . She was off duty but she could give me a massage for half the price ..
I did say yes as the girl was very attractive . She spoke in English and sounded genuine and not a Hooker at all.
She said her shop is 2 blocks away and will prefer to take a cab . I made sure that’s it’s not a cab set up so I waved to a cab that was on the opp side of the road ..
She spoke to the cab driver in mandarin and I couldn’t understand and we drove for 10 mins which wasn’t 2 blocks away.
I was suspicious but I was blinded by the thought of banging her ..
When we arrived at the destination it was a old house made into shop , looked more like a brothel.
I was escorted to a room and the girl said she will be back after changing into the masseuse uniform.
I got into the room and it was weird that no one asked for any money . I thought the girl may have told them that she has an understanding and I will pay her directly .
After 2 mins , a line up of diff girls came and I was told the girl who I was with had an emergency and had to leave.
The other girls were tall and also attractive so I selected one of them .
She comes in disrobes and straight away puts condom and asks me to fuck her ..
it was awful and I did fuck her for a couple of mins without any foreplay or anything and then I went soft as it just felt as if it was forced ..
She got up and left the room stating that she will get water and a new condom to suck me ..
Immediately 3 men walked in and told me that they have taped it . One of them was in a police uniform and another was in a military uniform carrying a gun . I couldn’t tell whether it was a real or fake gun but looked real.
They told me it’s a crime in China for a foreigner to have sex with an unmarried Chinese girl..
I said it was offered to me and I didn’t know about the rule .. they said then that I will
Need to go to jail .. I knew they were scamming me so I said I am
Happy to go to the police station and settle it there ..
when they heard that the police uniform dressed guy got really angry and said that he is the police and he will give me 6 months prison else I pay them $5000.
I refused and said that I am
Happy to go to the police station and I will co-operate ..
they checked my pockets and I only had $250 cash .. they said that’s not going to bail me and I will be kept locked here until I call
Someone to come and bail me.
I started arguing and that’s when it got ugly . Both of them started beating me and they had 3 more big guys come in.
They said my only option now is to pay them or go out with broken bones as this is how people are punished in China which I know was B.S.

Long story short , after much negotiation I ended up paying them $900 from my card and cash that I was carrying to get out of there after 5 hours of hell there.
I asked them for a $100 back for taxi and food which one of the guys decided to give back as I told them I don’t have anything else to pay for my food or stay ..
Later I learnt this is a scam in nanjing where girls would target single foreigners and everyone gets a cut - girl , taxi driver and the shop ..
I did decide to go to the police station but because I didn’t know where the shop was, they said they can’t help me but asked me to come back if I spot the girl again .. language was a big issue and I also wasn’t able to explain to the police properly of what went on …
So beware guys and I really hope no one goes through this experience ..

Wow. Really sorry to hear what you went through. I had a ‘funny’ feeling about my encounters in Nanjing Rd. After the 3 pairs of girls, a bunch of guys with flyers like in Las Vegas approached me. And to think my Ye ye grew up there!

Question: are you Asian or westerner ?

Damn bro. Yea that's a really common scam. It's fucked.

[iamthewalrus]

WOW ! mat29127692..

I was scammed a few times in a few locations in ASIA .. but nothing like that.


Last stop over in Shanghai, had girls calling my hotel room every hour... it was a short overnight stopover ,wanted just to sleep.
Was dicked around though by South China Air that trip.

Other issues, but very rare in comparison to the amount of punting I did overseas. Generally Im a savvy and experienced traveler, but sometimes we drop guard.

Cards scanned at ATM in Indonesia.

Stolen wallet and phones over the years.

Scammed in India, Malaysia, Singapore with freelance girls trying to re-neg on agreed services.

Hey brother Mat,

Sorry to hear about your horror experience. This could be some sort of organized crime syndicates targeting single foreigners. May be punting in Shanghai is not such a good idea at the moment.

I also heard that even for city such as ShenZhen (just over the border north of Hong Kong) where it used to be like a punting paradise in the Canton province and horny guys from Hong Kong would go over to fuck and play every weekend and it’s now no more fun ! Along with some nearby towns such as the city of Dongguan where the infamous Dongguan style massage services were born!

So perhaps if people are going to China these days, have you fun in Thailand or Singapore or Vietnam or even Macao first or on your way back. Safety first, no ?

[iamthewalrus]

.... have you fun in Thailand or Singapore or Vietnam or even Macao first or on your way back. Safety first, no ?

Any travel now post Covid ( and its still rampaging) requires good understanding of what restrictions and isolation one may need to go through.
More prior planning needed these days before travel.

Singapore is currently nowhere what it was two years ago as a punting ground.
Many of the FL are gone back home, and I know some who cant back to Singo atm. So the scene has changed. But there would be options.
Exchange rates also are something punters need to understand. Singo was never a cheap punting location, and our exchange rate with Sing dollar is not good.

Thailand is probably best option atm. Not sure how Vietnam is recovering and rebounding.

Good points with all the Covid related matter, honestly, right now is not the time to venture out of Australia, we are probably the more safer punting place on earth at the moment.

In regards to Sing dollar, we are still in parity right ? Not much advantages against the Sing $ anyway, unlike the Baht or the Dong that’s for sure. You do feel like a richer guy when you visit those countries.

Ya guys got to be careful .. if your sixth sense says it’s suspicious, then just pull out . Plenty of other fish in the sea and just not worth it ..
I learnt it the hard way and this is after I was experienced . I did warn a few other single dudes after that in nanjing who were getting hit by females from all corners..
got to look after each other ..

[mat29127692]

Thanks bro AHLUNGOR ..
Yes after experience I don’t feel comfortable at all in China .. maybe different for others .
I lived in HK so Shenzen was my weekend playground . This is probably 10 years back but it was a paradise .. don’t know what’s happening now but certainly cherish those days ..
Even HK had some real gems in some really tiny apartments ..
my preference in S E Asia is
Thailand
Phillipines
Vietnam
Cambodia

Yup at Parity now .
I was in Singapore 3 weeks back and options are still there but skimmed down a lot .
You don’t see those herd of girls from China , Philippines , Vietnam , some Latin girls as well queuing outside orchard road .
The options in Geylang have also reduced . It used be a line up of 20-30 girls easily in each shop and now I barely saw 4-5 …
Used to love my days in earning in sgd and spending in Thailand and Vietnam .. 😊

I was in SG just before Covid. Stuck to Geylang & Orchard Towers. Lots of Vietnamese. Also keep in contact with a really pretty young PRC who wants to visit Oz. I guess I’ll just have to show her the ropes…

Didn’t realise you lived in HK. I found those one room appartements quite good. Saw an Indonesian and a Korean there. I’m sure things are really quiet now though. HK is experiencing a huge wave and zero cases is still the goal (unattainable) forcing people to hide the fact that they have Covid otherwise they get shipped out and their whole building is shut down

Since Covid most of the girls gone back to their home countries.
I know several girls ( Viets PRC Indo Philipinnes ) and they have not been able to go back to Singo.

Orchard Towers has been rumored be going to new development and the '4Floors' may become part of history.

Still all over Singapore are small rnt massage shops in every old shopping center or busy commercial street.
Assume Geylang would still operate .

The Sunday afternoon 'tea parties' at OT were great.
Workers (Singapore help up by hundreds of thousands of foreign workers) from Phillipinnes, Malasysia, Indonesai india and other countries would party at the clubs and really let their hair down..
Was a great opportunity to meet, dance , drink and pick up a Pinay nanny for the night or over long term.

So this was a very different experience than OT at night with all the FL girls prowling the clubs looking for prey.
Think similar 'afternoon tea parties' happened in HK as well.

[aussiegaigin]

Sure did happen in HK too.

Was there a few years ago and happened to walk past a park with thousands on Pinay girls, was lucky to escape alive. Wasn't aware of this phenomena back then, but a real cutie latched on to me, bought me a t-shirt and some food. Got her back to my hotel for a session, but Cinderella had to be back at work by 6 pm.

NICE.. lots of fun those tea parties were.

Met a lovely Nanny and saw her every couple of weeks for a while, and then a MS sales girl for a few months, others for one offs.
Sadly, they used to work such long stints with very few days off.

Just sharing my horrific experience in Shanghai so all you brothers don’t go through this .

Wow, what a story! Reminds me of something similar during a holiday in Beijing. 2 attractive girls approached me for ‘language exchange’ and asked if I’d be interested in going to a cafe with them.

I suggested the Starbucks which was nearby but they had some other place in mind which I naively went along with.

So we were sipping some very overpriced non alcoholic drinks when I started to get suspicious.

They wanted to take me to a karaoke bar next, which I refused.

All up the damage was 200 yuan(~ 50 AUD), which was fairly minor as things go.

Anyway, lesson learned - if an attractive girl approaches you out of the blue and wants to take you somewhere, be on your guard…it’s most likely a scam of some sort.

Ya I do remember the Sunday afternoon crowds . Parks been flooded with domestic helpers mainly Filipinas ..
I would love if there could be a similar geylang type set up in sydney ..
Collection of 100 shops all in a radius of 500m , each shop with 20 girls , cheap and no frills FS .. the days I wouldn’t have time, Geylang would do it for me ..
There were some Filipina shops behind boat quay as well just like they had inside OT .. I had a few contacts there who would meet me regularly outside on their day offs .. those were the best kind of hook ups .. take them out for a drink and then bring the girls back home for some no holes barred action .. in the end would book a cab for them to go back home ..
