looking for victims of a Cairo fraudster

Post new topic

enise

Hello everyone, i am a victim of serious fraud by a man who works in central Cairo. I want to hear from others who may have encountered the same man and have suffered the way i have. I cannot name him on here obviously, but i will share some of his traits. He prefers to be active at night and is involved in small hotels and tourist activities. He is in his 40's. He is quite charming when he wants to be but also has a bad temper sometimes. If you want to share your experience with me please do, i want to know the full extent of his frauds in the hope we can do something about it. Please do not mention any names on your post as i'm sure it is not allowed. Maybe that can be given in a private message. Please don't tell me to get a lawyer, i have one.

I have had a bad interaction with someone as well. Similar to what you are describing. But you don't give enough detail about your experience. The honest truth is 90% of the men I have met out there are manipulators and users.  I have met at least 10 men in passing i.e. tour guides, drivers, even realtors and have not met one that isn't a scammer, user, manipulator, and only wants money and to go to bed

I cannot name him on here obviously, -@enise

Names will get the post or thread removed. A first name or initials will not.

I also had bad experience in Egypt. The person I know is about 42 years old and works in tourism. He is very charming also. That’s how they make a living , I guess which is very sad.
