Fraud at Princesa Club behind Novotel Warsaw Centrum
Hi I was in Warsaw and a guy lured me to walk in just see the club and girls without cover charge. I was in there, ordered a beer and sat there. Very attractive Girl came to me And we started talking. There were “free shots” and was literally forced to drink up. After a while they promised laptop and jacuzzi inside and girl promised to go with me after that if I paid club. Waitress was well trained to scam. She said 307 zloti I remember and said OK. After they basically drugged me, I was asked to pay and I did using debit card. It was not 307 zloti. It was 3007 zloti that was taken out of my debit card. That is around 613 GBP or 680 Euros in one go. I was too drugged and too weak to argue and somehow got back to hotel. I feel so betrayed and want this ruthless scammers to be punished if there is any law and order left in this country. What a shame. I even have debit card receipt for this amount with a club name on it and a wrist band. Is there any advice anyone could give me?

Hi. Same thing happened to me this week. Let’s see hie things end up. I have no big wishes for the police though.

Same happened to me. I've read now that it's a common scam and the police completely ignore it.

Same here...in July 2022 when I was in Warsaw. I did file a police report, we'll see if anything happens.

Yep, the same for me. A week ago got charged for 600$ and got drugged AF with "free" vodka shots. Thanks God I was able to still leave on my own, because they wanted to charge me even more, when they saw my heavy condition. STAY AWAY from "free" shots.

Went to the police. The police is supporting the club. The club might be even paying them. They did not even consider my statement.

Yeah. I got scammed the same way. Their MO seems to be: A) Serve those free "vodkas" B) Get the guy in the backroom with cameras etc. C) Drug the shit out of him D) Tell him that something costs for example 50$ E) Pile those costs and/or charge them when he can't even see straight F) Make it so embarrassing that no one want to go forward. I can tell you I've been drunk in my life but never have I been in that condition even though I drank only four drinks. I ended up accepting purchases for 15 000$. My story had a happy end when Mastercard came through and cancelled the payments the next week. Thank god for them. And a recommendation.
