Live and learn

PS, warning for online scam have been posted so many time before

It is all cool. If losing a couple of hundreds can exchange for safety it isn't much. The ladyboy got barred so he lost access to 1 hotel now... I was more pissed than anything. Part of me really wanted to pick him up and throw him outnof my room... but I didnt want trouble with the local police... whom in my opinion are just as corrupted. A good lesson learnt for me.
