I have to say that I have never heard of anyone having worse luck than you just did the past couple days. I mean you already understand why these things happened, so I won't say a word about that, I can't add anything you haven't thought of yourself already. Just hope you can salvage the trip with a good experience on your last day. Will you be returning some time? I think it is safe to say it will never be this bad again, the only way you can go is up from this.
Hi bros, I am in hcmc D1 and going back in the evening. any bro want to meet up for some last action?
Thanks to Bros Wendella, smallplayer and hoian for the advice. Appreciate all your time. Sorry for the late reply. I'm using the hotel internet now. Another 2 bad experiences again. ......
Where ever you are, don't give things to people you don't know without getting anything back first..lol.
Especially people in these vice trades.
To me...they cry father mother...I will nego with them at lobby ( so u can qc) and say do first pay later.

Found a lady from wechat and she turned out to be different from the photos. Before she came, I told her I had no condom but when she arrived and just as we were about to get cosy, she said she didn't receive the message. She showed me the phone and I did not see it. Not sure if it was deleted or what. She asked to leave to get the condom and said she will return in 10 minutes. She left and didn't come back. Unfortunately, I paid her $100 in advance. Back to square 1.
When i knew she won't return, itchy me went to out to find. BI met a motorcycle guy who quoted S$30 for ST and he said he had lots of viet gals. I told him I want to eat first and he brought me to a place (not sure if it's ind1) across a bridge. After makan, we nego a LT deal about $100. Paid him half. But I had only 1mil. So we went to a nearby atm. Just before I went to withdraw the cash, he said he needed to call the gal but his battery went flat. I'm sure you guys know what happened next. He made off with my phone when I turned around to walk to the atm. I have to admit it was a mistake on my part. I should have erected my defenses instead of my dick when I heard him saying he wanted to call the girl first. Luckily. I had some spare change and was able to find my way back.
Looks like my trip to HCM is going to be ruined this time. I'm not going to trust any viet gals and motorbike guys from now. Learnt the hard way. Hope all the bros don't make the same mistake as me.
Btw, Bro smallplayer, we could meet up later if you are free. I have 1 day left and will return tomorrow morning. I'm staying in Ben Tanh area. Please PM me if you would like to meet up. Would love to hear of your adventures too. I'll log into SBF later.
Tough luck bro. Be careful in future. This applies to any foreign countries.
U will be in good hands of small player...have fun.

Thanks to all the bros who have PMed me with advice. I have only myself to blame for my predicament. Trust is a word I'll keep in my pocket from now. Hopefully, I can post some positive FR later today.
Hope this sums up the basic things to watch out for if you are a first timer in HCM
1 ) Do not purchase a taxi coupon at the airport. Go out and que for VINASUN or MAI LINH taxis. The others will slaughter you.
2 ) If you travel light. Walk into hotels and ask the rates and view the rooms. Very competitive industry so they will oblige you. What you see on websites are sometimes different from actual. Get recommendations from.members here
3) Shopping in Ben Thanh....do not be afraid to slash the price by half. Walk away and you will be counter offered ! If you hate bargaining, walk along the outer ring where you see staff in light blue uniform. Fixed prices.
3) Never take a gal from a motorbike no matter how gorgeous they look. Motorbike pimps too. Gals get fake IDs and cannot be traced. A classmate did not listen and lost usd2000 after he fell asleep.
4) Do.not use your handphone while walking along the road. Ladies....Keep your handbags on the inner side of the road
5) Do.not.flash your money when paying..Like crocodiles, you cannot see them.but they are watching you. Be careful....the Vnd500,000 has been mistaken for Vnd20,000 due to the colour alrhough thr size is different.
6) Avoid moto taxis at night. Savings may be very costly.
7) Just be alert of your surroundings to avoid problems
Reading through your posting, kinda difficult to believe. You been cheated 3 times in a row total US$350. Rather than you waste your money this way, just go to expat bar or club to select girl for overnight.

I also hope it's all a bad dream too. It's my first time in HCM and I'm basically a noob. I'm very much clueless about the language and place. On hindsight, I should have trawled the wealth of info here before making my trip. It would have saved much heartache for me.

no, i will honestly tell you that if i were in your shoes, my handphone will be gone too.

stick to the safer means next time
Thanks for your comforting message, Bro sinjiao. Tonight I'll stay in my hotel and not venture out. Tomorrow I will be returning early. Hope to be wiser the next time I return to HCM. Lesson learnt.

which hotel u stay???
i am quite surprised the night shift staffs never approach u asking if u want gals..
getting the staffs to bring gals is a better choice rather then ownself finding wechat gals if u dunno the language

I'm staying at Ha My Hotel. So far the staff didn't say a thing about gals. It's only the motor guys who are the persistent ones.
Btw, a funny thing happened on my 1st or 2nd night. I was strolling alone at night when a motorcycle with 2 gals came close to me twice. The pillion gal made eyes at me and spoke in Viet. Unfortunately, I couldn't understand what she was saying and left it at that. Perhaps that is an invitation for boom boom or it could be another scam job.
Excellent round-up there, guys who do karaokes will really appreciate that one.
Seems like Fortune is your clear favorite so far.
I would throw in here that a friend of mine was with a group recently that went to D-Maxx on the corner of Ton That Tung street and Suong Nguyet Anh, near Nguyen Thi Minh Khai in district 1. He gave an extremely positive review, said girls were gorgeous, things get wild, and so on. I didn't get price details since I'm not a KTV guy.
Wow this d-maxx sounds good, shall add it to my list of ktvs to recce. Anyways my friend and I will be in hcmc and looking to hit e ktvs today and tmr, any like-minded ktv lovers are more than welcome to join us
