Scammed by Bumble date
Happened to me yesterday, lost 47k.
Haven't dated for over 3 years, opened Bumble for the first time. Monday morning matched with a girl, and evening I get scammed. I could see through the lies of the girl but didn't know something like this could happen. She asked to meet at a pub in Koramangala, she told it's her first time visiting the place but I could easily see she knew everything about the place, where the lift would be, what floor we must go, she was ready to order by taking an instant glance of the menu.
She started ordering Blue Label, 60ml on repeat. I don't drink and had no idea of how the cost is going to be.
After about 20 mins, waiter comes and asks me to pay 23.7k. I immediately got a sense of the scam but didn't want any trouble as it's very isolated from the outside, all indoor setting with no easy way to come out. The another bill then came to 23k. And 999 for the cigarettes she bought. I confronted the girl and told her about how she was scamming, and asked her to pay half, which she refused to pay. To keep her integrity, I just paid and left. I've charged to my credit card, now I don't know how to pay my bill next month, don't have any savings, already in debt and now this. I don't know if police complaint will help, I don't think it will.
I could see only couples there and I assume all had the same situation, I could see the faces of the guys. One guy was just sitting there calling & texting his friends for money.
I don't know what to do, haven't slept whole night. Reported the girl in Bumble not that it will help.
Edit: already see the girl now in Bumble with a differnet name.
