East China - Shanghai

[QUOTE=RumSpringA;1848934]I'm headed to Shanghai for 2 weeks and I'm staying at a hotel at People's Square. I am interested in some company but have zero experience with this sort of thing. I've seen the backpages ads and was wondering if anybody has any advice? I'm open to massage, escorts, bars. Anything! Thanks for your help and I will post my experiences so others can benefit.[/QUOTE]Rum Spring,

Around People's Square and Nanjing Lu you will have many touts coming up to you offering all kinds of things. Rule number 1 of mongering is: DO NOT go with touts. Even if they look hot or offer super deals. Their goal is to take you to someplace where they will relive you of all your money and give you nothing in return. Never follow touts!

I appreciate the advice. If not for your guidance I probably would have went with a beautiful girl. Thank you very much.

[QUOTE=DexXie;1849485]I looked at the SNG indy section. I found it somewhat strange that most of them don't accept Asians.[/QUOTE]I think this is a a misunderstanding. The girls often refuse Chinese customer, not Asians. And for that there mostly the security point is the reason.

There has been a case last December where an agency in Min Hang district got busted after a client (who for sure was an undercover cop) called.

The police after the girl offered "extra service". And if the customer is no Chinese, he also could not be an undercover cop, so more safe for the girl.

Nevertheless,

Have fun.

Minhang weather is getting better it seems.

Was told two MPs on HM Road were given the green lights to reopen.

Haven't checked them myself (I'll check the other ones as well) but will do soon.

I was in Shanghai on business and have always had a great time in Asia. Girls are usually fun and finding local freebies is sometimes easy and sometimes not. So sometimes I revert to pros / MP / Backpage or CL.

This night I was feeling like going for a stroll and seeing what I could find. I went to the ATM got 2000 RMB and went for a walk. One block down the street I am met by 2 pretty girls, in there 30's. They ask if I want a massage or a girl. So I said yes. And we start talking. I mentioned that I wanted 2 girls but only wanted to spend 500 RMB. When they agreed I should have known I was in trouble!

Now, its really late 2 am and I am now thinking with my lower head! They said that I had to go with them and I could pick out the girls. FUCK, I have been doing this long ass time, andI knew that this was a bad idea! So I told them no, and started to walk away. Then the prettier of the 2 catch up with me and tell me "hey, this is all good, we just can't have girls out here on the street, just come and pick 2 girls and then we will pay your taxi back to the hotel". FUCK. I fell for it. I got in the taxi!

We drove for about 25 minutes and now I am thinking, fuck I need to get out of here. But we finally get to the establishment. And it looks like a normal KTV. I see other guys walking in and walking out. So I go in with only one of the girls.

As soon as I walk in a 2 customers with 2 girls are walking out. One of the guys looks at me, laughs and says "good luck buddy". Again, I am thining "I need to go". But know I am being led up stairs and into a small room.

The girl I met on the street tells me "OK, this is how this works, a girl is going to come in and get you warmed up, then you can pick from all of our girls and we will take you back to the hotel".

In walks a youngish 20 year old girl. Says Hi, and starts taking my clothes off. And starts trying to force me to get in her and stuff. I keep fighting it saying "listen I just want to leave" but the door is locked!

All of a sudden 2 guys walk in, saying that I owe them A LOT of money! The girl leaves and I am told to empty my pockets! I take the 2000 RMB out and say "this is all that I have".

The boss says "don't fucking lie to me!" and now the big guy is patting me down. He finds my wallet and takes all my cards out, asking what the limits are. I told him that they are all low and he is better off taking the 2000.

This is where it starts to get fucking really bad. He is typing up numbers on his calculator and comes to a figure of 195,000! He looks at me and says you owe me $195,000 US! I start laughing (not a good idea). I tell him I don't have that fucking kind of money!

Now I had 2 ATM cards and 4 credit cards in my wallet. He didn't find my main ATM as it was in a sleeve and it just looked like receipts. And my main work credit card is an airline card and it looks more like a frequent fliers card than a credit card. So he didn't find those. What he did find was one ATM for a 2nd bacn account that I sue for "playing" with only 400 US left in it and 3 credit cards that have VERY low limits on them.

So after 2 hours of arguing and making me wait, with different big guys coming in to scare me. He finally comes in with a small guy with an credit card machine. Now when he was out of the room and one of the big guys was "watching " me. I made sure to take my main credit card that looks like the airline card and my main ATM that was in the sleeve and I put them in my inside jacket pocket. I acted like I was scared and throwing up into the garbage can. Now all that is left on the table are my small $ cards. So they picked one of the cards on the table, and and ran it for 1000 US. It got declined! He was PISSED he threw the machine started yelling at me. He tells me "give me the 2000!" Then tells me to get out of there and that I am lucky!!

I have NO idea where I am, I have NO money and I didn't have the name of my hotel with me. Long story short, I finally got a taxi to take me to A Hilton, from there I told them what happened and they helped me get back to my hotel!

It was a scary fucking night, but in all honesty it went much better than it could have!

Did I learn my lesson!? NO. I ended up getting a girl off of Backpage that morning when I got back! I had to relieve stress! A ffew days later I did get my freebie and had a lot more fun with her! But damn I need to be smarter!

So![/QUOTE]Did you report to the police about your experience?

Jb.

"I mentioned that I wanted 2 girls but only wanted to spend 500 RMB. When they agreed I should have known I was in trouble!"

Can somebody start a thread strictly about rip offs in the city and how to avoid them? The rest of us want to move on to sharing the good places and providers.

[QUOTE=Beijing4987;1850880]Can somebody start a thread strictly about rip offs in the city and how to avoid them?

Just start a scam thread in the general section for China, people can post their experience there. Visitors who may be newbies can go there to learn how to avoid being scammed instead of having to look through pages and pages of posts.

10 years ago I was taken to a coffee shop above KFC on Nanjing Road. Pretty girl touching me. You get the picture. One beer comes. She gets coffee, then the fruit arrives. At the time to pay I say "I'll pay for my beer (50 rmb on the menu) She can buy what she ordered" Voices raise in volume. I get out of there for 100 rmb. Then the strangest thing happened. The elevator will not let me out on the ground floor. I exit in the basement, then out to Nanjing Road tourist street through the kitchen of KFC. The KFC workers in the kitchen were really startled to see my round eyes. First time it was at a tea house near People's Square. Second time the Art Student near the Great Hall of the People in Beijing. Gullible is my middle name. I went back to the tea house the next day and caused a big enough stink to get back half of my money. I still have some of the "Art" from Beijing.

[QUOTE=HornBoy98;1849360]Heading to Shanghai for a weekend (Mar 18-20). I lived there back in 2010 but would imagine the scene has changed quite a bit since that time. Not interested in the KTV scene but more so the saunas. I will be staying near Zhong Shan Park so looking at some recommendations close by. Focusing on good looking girls and moderately priced options. I used to hit up the Holiday Inn Shanghai Vista up on Changshou Road and sometimes the random barber / massage shops on Anyuan Road (may be another road up there, it was a while ago)- not sure if that is still a good area for playtime.

I will probably hit up Manhattan at some point. Let me know if anyone wants to meet up. Thanks in advance for any suggestions / recommendations.[/QUOTE]Lots of sauna in Hongqiao area, should be easy to access. Price tag goes around 1 K /90 min.

(That includes taxi drivers, street touts, friendly students inviting you to tea.) There are some great escort, massage, sauna, free-lance, take-out options all highlighted in these pages.

Hello,

Will be in Shanghai first week of April (if anyone's up for a beer just PM me) and as it is some time since my last visit and as things change so fast, just would love some info.

Is 999 still running? I had nice times there but that was some time ago.

I was told sauna at Shanghai Hotel has closed down its services. Is that correct?

Recommended spots by now? Sacrosa and Tang Dynasty?

If anyone has some indy girl, or Judys / Manhattan FL to recommend please PM me with numbers. Thanks in advance!

Cheers!

Hello Shanghai,

I'm a regular to guagzhou / Hong Kong. However, this is my second visit only to Shanghai.

First visit was short and pretty hectic to take time out. Coming to the point. I love what Kama Club in Guangzhou offers. Russians, columbians, arab.

Is there a similar place in Shanghai? If so, then which hotel should I stay to be closest to action.

Much Thanks,

Sam.
