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 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.
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🙏🏽😊
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.
$8 A MINUTE!? Some people get paid .25 cents a minute working retail. Not to mention, his going rate for just 2 minutes is 3 tall Starbucks drinks! 😵😭🤨
Bruh, i would simply say: "bro i'm a brazilian... you are trying to rob ME? ME? nah" - Then, run for my life, get into a big store, call an uber and byeeeeeee

Would have been easier if any of you had been filming at the time of discussing with the guy before the ride. Then you could've been like we have on camera what you told us.
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!
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.

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

@@alfafi2425 Scams exist EVERYWHERE! It doesn't matter what country you're in or the economy. It all depends on the person. And why would Marla lie??
@@alfafi2425 Do you even know what you’re saying? Marla is not a liar.
@@alfafi2425 People that take advantage of other people is a human trait that is everywhere. From the smallest village to the richest city.

they were probably scared😭 she did say he was a bigger and more intimidating man
Not Ellie with the banana hate 😭 also I feel like you don’t really have a NYC experience if you’re not pooped on or scammed and you guys did both 😅
You should've just given him the $20 and walked away. There's nothing he could do
$8 A MINUTE!? Some people get paid .25 cents a minute working retail. Not to mention, his going rate for just 2 minutes is 3 tall Starbucks drinks! 😵😭🤨

Bruh, i would simply say: "bro i'm a brazilian... you are trying to rob ME? ME? nah" - Then, run for my life, get into a big store, call an uber and byeeeeeee
You should’ve laughed and walked away, you can never take those guys seriously. Complete scam.

@@alfafi2425 trust me there’s a lot of scams in America and I live in NYC. I’ve seen those people on the bikes, they’re scammers.
@@alfafi2425 You are trolling, right?
Yea you guys got majorly scammed!! I would've given the $20 and then called the cops if he started harassing y'all
Would have been easier if any of you had been filming at the time of discussing with the guy before the ride. Then you could've been like we have on camera what you told us.
How did you make your intro?!!
