One of my wife's friends called her a few days ago wanting to meet to discuss some bad behaviour by her husband. She tabled a printout of his recent CC activity. As hard as it is for me to believe, the tool spent 12k in a brothel in one night on his own. How the fk do you d that. I guess if it's fraud.

He admits shagging 4 hookers but also said they fleeced him. What's worse is his card issuer called him during the card processing and he ok'd the 3 transactions. He claims they threatened him but he us too embarrassed to go to the police and naturally his wife has now instigated divorce proceedings.

What is bizarre is he is pretty straight. (Clearly not) I've never seen him really drunk but he apparently is a raging alcoholic and I've heard some recent shockers such as stting the bed at a friends house when they holidayed together in Qatar.

Came up as 'Devine Restaurants'. It was his own card apparently.

Unless you've got an Amex platinum cashback where you get 1.25% cashback.

That's £150 for 2 hours with an escort for when he's been kicked out

Sunny, I think this place would give you about 30 seconds for 150 notes based on the charges to date.

He only earns 50k so a bit irresponsible to give him such a limit

He's not been defrauded, just done over. I know someone who did something similar and only his mate coming to rescue him meant he "got away with" about £5.5k. This was on holiday. He reckons they slipped him something (let's face it, a bit of Rohypnol on a nipple would do it) and after that he didn't care what they did, he was having a good time with 3 or 4 of them and quite happy to key in his pin when asked. He says that the next day he was in bits, which would fit with him being given a hypnotic drug of some kind.

I suspect the "they threatened me" bit is just bks. They were sucking his **** and after that he just didn't bloody care.

So the brothel shop put 4k through 3 times and he ok'd it every time?

Not likely. Sounds more like 4 hookers@100ph for 3 hrs. 1.2k. What kind of brothel has hookers for 3k? And what was wrong with his wife.

Sounds like a cool story bro.

I think once the red mist descends its easy for a man to get carried away in these places (especially in europe)

A very good mate once got smashed in a one of these places, went off for 'a dance' 20 mins later I see him the wrong side of the bar with two ladies rinsing his card through the machine as fast as they could go. He then disappeared for hours, I had to rescue him from a room out the back only surrounded by 2 hookers, with white powder round his nose and only wearing his shirt and socks!!!

It was something no other man should see of have to deal with but couldn't leave him there, but he got away lightly with £1600. Funnily enough he stayed in the following night!

Did he order the "meal for 2 with a view" perhaps?
