This netizen stated in the post that he was targeted by a scam group at Ikebukuro Station in Tokyo. The scammers offered a bait-and-switch tactic, asking, "Want to go to a brothel? You can sleep with AV actresses!" Such absurd talk deeply resonated with this overweight young man, as having sex with an AV actress was a lifelong dream! So, he foolishly agreed.
What seemed like a perfect experience turned out to be the beginning of a tragedy. Seeing the chubby guy take the bait, the other party first demanded a referral fee of 35,000 yen, then tried to sell him three sessions, totaling about 75,000 yen. Just as he paid and was about to take off his pants, anticipating his encounter with the AV actress, a burly man claiming to be the "operator" appeared, demanding 300,000 yen!
This operator stated that customers had to pay a deposit before having sex with the actress, which would be returned after the transaction. The original poster (OP) found this absurd, but thinking he was already halfway through his business, he decided to try and negotiate to see if he could pay later. However, society is cruel, and the result, of course, was rejection…
After finally managing to scrape together the money in two days, the "operator" lied and said that the 300,000 yen was just a one-time deposit, and that he needed to pay the remaining 900,000 yen. This finally pushed the original poster to his limit. He reported the incident to the police, only to discover that it was all a scam and he would never get his money back!
Police subsequently used surveillance footage to track down and arrest a five-member fraud ring led by 25-year-old Ryōki Nishi. Further investigation revealed that the group had been operating near Ikebukuro Station for two years, consistently using the same methods, and had defrauded hundreds of people of over 50 million yen – truly despicable! That's all!
