    No, you have no reason to pay that much money. You don't have to ask. He took advantage of you and kept you on the bike longer because he thought he could intimate you into paying. If that ever happens just walk away. What's he gonna do? Attack 4 girls at a time in public? Nah.

      I live 20 minutes from NYC and I hate when some locals do this. Sometimes they sense you’ll be too nice and not say anything

      I don’t believe what Marla said! I think this time she is liar. America is not like Thailand. In Thailand, Scams, confidence tricks and rip-offs are very common in the tourist, because many people are poor. It not like America (America is a rich country), America has a large and diversified economy that is relatively resilient to economic shocks. This has given the America an advantage over competing countries through difficult economic periods, helping to create wealth and stimulate growth across a wide range of industries and sectors.
      How can she said there is scam in America. She also don’t have proof. In Saudi if you dare to say like this, you will arrest immediately.

    You should have given that scammer the $20 bill and then walked away. If he were to follow & harass you, then you should tell him you are going to find a policeman.

    You haven't been to New York if you haven't been scammed. I got scammed out of $5 when I was a kid and that was enough for me. I would've handed him the $20 and walked away. or disputed the charge with my bank.

    Awww sorry about your experience! It’s definitely good to do some research about the place you’re going to before going there, it’s normal to check the weather and do’s and don’ts. NY is def a BIG tourist attraction and esp in Times Square, they try to take advantage if you don’t seem like a local, there’ll be a bunch of peeps in costumes telling you to take a photo with them using your own camera and then charge you a ridiculous amount, and no law that says you need to cough up whatever amount they demand from you! Hopefully next time you visit, it’ll be more fun than your last one🙏🏽😊

    Hey girl! I'm sure you already know, but make sure you're eating lots of probiotics or taking a probiotic! Accutane is known to cause ulcerative colitis or inflammatory bowel diseases and there was a lawsuit awhile back for this :/ I pray that never happens to you, and I'm sure you already know but I hope your tummy stays healthy!
