Man did I get scammed!

Thought I'd share this with you all. First off, it was really mostly my fault since I fell for it.

OK, so I was interested in seeing a Tgirl and had found one who looked appealing on one of those "Backpage" sites. I texted her and she said she could see me very soon if I liked. For payment she didn't do cash but wanted an Ebay gift card from Walgreens. OK fine.

So I get the gift card, go to her location and text her. She says scratch off the card, take a pic and send it to her along with a pic of the receipt and verification. OK... so did that.

Then she says her "boss" needs to approve the visit and gives me her text number, so I text the "boss" and she's very welcoming and says that since I'm new to her group, I need to put down a deposit which will be immediately refunded after her registration process. So I go buy a Razer Gold Card, scratch off the number, take a pic of it along with verfication receipt and send it to her...

So far I'm in for $450

She says great... we're almost finished and after that I'll give Lexi (the provider) to invite you into her apt.

All I need now is another $150 for insurance, since some of her providers have been abused, and though she's sure I'm not one of those guys, she must have the additional $150.

At this point I'm long past suspicious and decide NOT to throw good money after bad.

Anyway, there's more back and forth with BOTH of them and they're playing "good cop, bad cop" since the provider says she's just dying to be with me but she can't without the bosses approval.

So I got nothing for $450 and at least didn't give into the "sunk cost fallacy" which humans are very prone to and which this person(s) were using.

For all I know, this was some fat bald guy with two phones running the entire scam.

Maybe I should just visit with Lindsey Lacey and she could likely fulfill my desires.

We have all been there and have been had.

For me, it s when a lot of the new laws came in about 10 years ago. I saw a very attractive red head and traveled to a sketch part of town to an Apartment with gated community. One of those with a lot of people hanging around outside.

She came down from an apartment, hopped into the passenger seat. Asked what I wanted...told her. Then she said she was Police and they were letting me go but confiscating $$. She hopped out and there was a delay on processing for me.

I figured out what was going on and got out of my car to go and get the cash back. She got to the locked gate and entered the code wrong. She instead elected to go over the fence 6' chain link fence.

I caught up to her when she was half over. I was grabbing her leg trying to pull her back over to get the cash. She got her foot caught under the top guide wire for the fencing and I let go. She went over the fence and let out a loud scream, as her foot was still caught in the guide wire and she was hanging upside down.

With all the noise the scuffle created people hanging outside started coming over and I decided to high tail it out.

The $300 I lost was well worth the entertainment of the provider who just ripped me off was hanging upside down. My hobby buddies and I still have a laugh about that one.

Thanks... great story!
