Warning: Cheated in China AGAIN HELP!!!!!!

[gougou]

While we wait, maybe we can turn the threat into a general "cheating" threat?

Good idea, but unfortunately, you're late: The Beijing Tea Scam (and a few others)

Wow. This is the original ask_weasal. I spelled weasal wrong on purpose. It’s been 15 years since this post. An update?

 

Well...I’m still in China. Moved to Shanghai over 10 years ago as someone on the forum suggested. Married and have two children. I believe I’m less stupid(that’s up for debate).

 

I ended up just changing my passport. Thank goodness nothing bad happened. What’s ironic is that the American friend who did that in 2006 is now dead from a tragic accident. It happened a few days ago.

 

In fact...over a 10 year period he and his two other brothers also died in tragic accidents. Starting with his first brother that died in 2011. Then his second brother in 2018. Don’t believe me? Look this name up: Stephen Rome. It’s a pretty unique name. You’ll find the story. A real story of final destination.

 

When I read back on what I wrote. I cannot believe I was this stupid. Thanks guys for helping me see through my stupidity.

 

Anyway, rest In peace Stephen Rome.

Wow, that was a wild ride.

 

Please do not sell (or rent!) your kidneys. 

 

Ribbing aside, I hope your life is going well in Shanghai. China can be such a beautiful place and I miss it frequently. I wish you the best of luck!

wow glad to hear you learned from your mistake, stuck it out and stayed in China for that long.

Almost missed the update, but someone told me about it over dinner (Streets of Beijng, Home St, Edinburgh, very good). Thanks for checking in.
