Near the Moulin Rouge on Avenue de Clichy there are men who beg, plead and pull on your arm to come inside a “bar” and see a show. They say 10 euros for one beer. When you get inside a girl starts ordering drinks, and when you try to leave you'll be surrounded by 2 or 3 guys who will insist those drinks cost 80 euros each. They will not let you leave, nor call a cop. (this is basically strong-arm robbery.) They'll start yelling, and if you're alone boy are you in trouble. They take your money, then order you to hand over a credit card. I was only in there about 10 minutes, owed them $240 euros by their calculation, they took my money, swiped my card, said it was no good and when I got home I found $530 taken from my account.
