If you really care about helping people, you should name the bar and country they are from so people can know what to watch out for in case they’re repeat offenders in that same area. You never know who’s life your saving by giving full details.
I totally understand but i really don't think the bar know anything about these people that's why i didn't name the bar just like where i live in vegas we have bunch of scamers in the clubs i was promoting in and scamming people
I guess this goes to show that you can take all the precautions. And still become a victim of a crime. Moto robberies, larcenies, scopamine and scams. Good advice about burner phones, wallets etc. I personally would not keep any banking/financial apps on my phone. I honestly could not enjoy a vacation or live there.
Spent time solo in Medellin during Covid, and tried to be cautious. Almost every single story I hear/heard started as, “I was out drinking one night”. Easy fix, don’t drink.
It sucks though because before the pandemic, I had no problem going out with paisas and drinking/clubbing until 7am, EVERY TIME, they made sure I got home safe. Now it's like swimming in a sea of sharks if you try going out alone post 2020.
Just because you don’t drink, doesn’t mean that you cannot be a victim of crime. People have had scopolamine put in their coffee and juice and they weren’t drinking alcohol. While it helps to be more aware it’s not an “easy fix”like you think it is
Im from the hood.. no 1 is ur friend.. and would never drink with strangers and if im drinking i dont be so close to anyone i dont kno to put something in my drink
I dont wish it on you, but you do realize in Medillion, gangs will put a gun to your head, kidnap you, empty your bank accounts and force you to phone family and friends for more. This is something common in Colombia and never happens in Western countries. Dont think your above having this happen to you.
"The most unexpected thing happened next..." *goes on to describe the typical Colombia bar robbery story*, lol Btw by not naming the nationality you're basically aiding these guys to rob more people. It's not like every place is equally safe and it's only because there are "lots of people people" out there. Japan is so much more densely populated and doesn't have the problems. Stop making excuses for rampant crime.
Sorry but there's nothing creative with that tactic that you just mentioned. Your friend unfortunately wasn't smart enough. How in the hell you drink with strangers? Is a no no

@@jarellgaddy8587 agreed 100%, that’s why I said everyone story *I heard, began with “I was out drinking one night”…
Don’t have drinks that are opened and u don’t know the ppl that give them to u. Colombia is not a place to act like a fool.
Exactly
Thank you for the story and advice.
