1) NEVER engage wechat, no matter how dry you are. I myself had got scammed SGD 2500 in cash and valuables, and a friend SGD 4000 and gold chain

2) I must comment i deem myself streetsmart, thinking it will never happen. Well, i think the vietnamese scammers are more streetsmarter than us

3) AP scam, for single travellers, no matter you how desperate for the bang or the hole, never engage the AP touts, take grab.
Should you engage, never take the front row, it comes w a high price.
Myself 500k, friend 10mil (retrieved becos he did some safe measures ), another friend 03 mil

Good luck and have fun

I go VN alone for bis trip and I took many times grab and till now no one charge me high fees. I dunno how you got scammed of $2.5K and yr frd $4K. My frd and I chiong so long not even once we had been scammed. The only things that some VB promised to overnight but after 1 time bum bum; they ask to go home or tried to make u horny again to bum bum finished. Normally the hotel staffs will help u and this dun understand how u can got scammed
