I found it kind of funny how they were polite to you afterwards. I mean it's definitely a good thing, considering much worse could have happened to you, but strange nonetheless.

I'm glad you're ok MrBitter!

The other thing is MrBitter, you might experience some post traumatic stress because while after-the-fact this is one of those 'isnt that kind of funny' stories during the actual experience you probably thought there was a greater than 10% chance you'd never leave Shanghai alive. So just try to relax if you can, this might stay with you a while longer.

Well I hope the bank puts a stop on those transfers. Seems stupid to have a limit of 300 if the bank just goes and ignores it.

Sucks to hear, at least on the positive he got out safely and back to his hotel. Could have been worse.

On the plus side, he's very lucky he didn't get stabbed or assaulted, and while losing that money sucks horribly, it could have been a lot worse.

There are assholes everywhere in the world, I've had people try to mug me barely 10 meters from my own house (in what is generally a peaceful neighbourhood).

Must've been horrible being mugged in a foreign country though, atleast in your native land you have an idea of how to approach the situation/what to do.

Glad to know nothing too serious happened all things considered

300$ limit for withdrawal of cash i guess? it might be a different limit for transactions. If you're lucky you might get back the 1600$. Usually you have some kind of insurance...

sorry to hear that this happened to you.. ive been to shanghai once because my father works there and im gonna be there for christmas. I wont take a cab for sure... good thing my father has a driver.

I guess the only thing you could have done was to react faster and get out of the cab immediately or call a cab instead of taking one.


Getting money back from a debit card is a huge pain in the ass. Its not like a credit card where the charges are just cancelled and the bank can just say a big FU to the merchant.

Money can be reimbursed especially since most of the charges are from a Pin transaction and you weren't the person to physically withdraw money according to your post. But you're looking at a long process and you will definitely need a police report to file the reimbursement claim.


i know my father had a problem with credit card scam and it was no problem to get the money back since he had an insurance included.
i dont know about the details though and if its important that the situation is a bit different

There is a difference between credit and debit though. Debit cards literally take out cash from Mr. Bitters' savings/cash account and transfer it somewhere else. Credit cards are electronic transfers from the credit company to the destination, and they can usually be reversed.

Damn, sounds real wicked.

Glad MrBitter came out safe though, I've heard too many stories about random acts of murder during robbery in China.
