Lima

[Guerinto]

To further help others, here is a short article and a video that helps describe what to look for: http://www.ibtimes.co.uk/how-spot-at...vienna-1567667.

You can also Google "ATM skimmer" and see tons of articles. In Miraflores, I used almost exclusively the Scotiabank ATM on Larco or the BCP on Larco. Both are near Calle Schell and I never had problems with either during 11 months of withdrawals over 2 years. I find using ATMs in banks that are high volume are pretty decent habits to reduce the risk. During the day in Miraflores, both of those ATMs also had security guards close by, which also helps. Nothing is ever 100% safe and seasoned travelers often get fooled as well.

Be safe (and lucky)!

Three weeks after I returned from Lima, I got a fraud alert message from my bank on my cell phone. I called the bank and talked to one of the fraud specialist. He informed me there were two ATM transactions in Lima using my debit card. One transaction went through for over $200, but the next transaction was denied.

I'm very careful when I use any ATM in any country, thus, I asked how could something like this happen. He told me about Card Skimming:

"Skimmers are devices added to ATM machines to capture your card's information, including your account number, balance, and PIN number. These devices, often mounted alongside a machine and labeled 'card cleaners,' are difficult to notice unless you're looking for them.

You may also find card skimmers mounted beside the normal ATM card slot with a sign that says, "slide card here first. " Sometimes they are even mounted right on top of where you would normally enter your card. Skimmers can actually collect and store up to 200 ATM cards before they need to be removed by thieves. ".

Lucky for me, the bank reimbursed my funds during the fraud investigation. The bank agent also told me this happens quite often and to be even more careful when I use my ATM card.

Hopefully this information with help others on this board.

Hi guys,

I'm available again as a travel companion and wingwoman. I can accompany you on your trip to Cuzco or Trujillo or? But I'm also available if you want to stay in Lima and need some help. Just write me a PM.

My apologies to the guys who sent me PMs which I did not answer. These last few months have been very tough for me due to personal issues but things are looking better now.

Two years ago, I had escorts stating from USD $150.00 - $300.00. There are no cheap escorts. Best deals as in the posts. You can ask the site what is included and not.

Of course they are cheap escorts in Lima.

150-300 USD, that's only the best escorts there and that's definitely overpriced.

After searching a bit, I found the price of 200-300 Soles, what is around 60-90 USD for 1 hour.

I even think that there are some cheaper agencies and you can still get quite a pretty young chick.

It seems that everybody prefers to pay Western Standard prices.

Hi guys, What price to expect for 1 hour with this website? What is included in the price? BBBJ, 69, Cunilingus and sex? http://kinestops.com Any other websites with cheap escort in Lima? 10 years ago we could get an escort for 25-30 $. Is it still the same?

You can see a prostitute for $7-10 (S. 20-30) if you go to Trocodero.

These high class escorts will always try charge "western" rates because they can, but if you go to where the rest of the population go, you will be charged local rates.

They can't really charge you more when their sign at their door says S. 25.

Thanks for your infos DownUnderMonger.

Yeah I was in one place like that in North Peru and in Ecuador. However I prefer to get some escorts, but I agree with you, that there is no reason to pay 250-500 Soles. I would rather pay around 100-150 soles for 1 hour. 10 years ago you could get around that price and of course they were also many expensive escorts, but I didn't try them. The cheap one was ok.

Please check your inbox. Thanks.

Hi,

Perhaps you remember my name. I was active on the forum last year but had to stop temporarily due to personal reasons. I read a few of your recent posts and I see that you are helping guys that come to Lima. Perhaps we could find a way to organize something together? Nothing illegal of course. I'm not a madam and the girls I know do not work for me. They are just students and girls with 'normal' jobs. Are you in Lima right now? If so, perhaps we could meet somewhere in Lima and discuss things? No obligations, of course. Please let me know.

Hi folks,

Since you are not a senior member, I can not PM you. I will need some help soon.

No, since you are not willing to pay $20 you can not PM her nor anyone else.

It's a bit of a hike but I used to make a trip out of it and spend a couple of days in Chosica. Nice chill place. Visit on the way up then on the way back.

Interesting. What would you do there besides monger?

[DownUnderMonger]

Similar set up to El Trocadero but less girls. It's a ***** to get out there with traffic but might be worth it from an adventurous point of view.
