The first drama queen was a PRC factory slut who threatened to jump off a building. Now this one is another drama queen regardless that she was a victim. Retribution for her past evil deeds?
PRC woman causes commotion at coffeeshop
Lianhe Wanbao - 3 hrs 25 mins ago
A Chinese national woman got into a scuffle with a man at a coffeeshop yesterday.
Liu Gui Ling (40, business owner) called Lianhe Wanbao at 1pm yesterday to tell her story.
Liu said that she had met a man at a casino in April and was swindled for nearly $100,000 by the man.
According to Liu, the man was driving an expensive car and had claimed to be the owner of a shipping company.
"I mentioned I want to open a shop and he suggested that we each invest $100,000 in it. Then I only need to borrow $400,000 from the bank and will not have to mortgage my shophouse to get the necessary funds," she recalled.
After much persuading from the man, she decided to do as he suggested and handed $92,500 to him the next day.
"He disappeared right after he got the money. I had no choice but to go with my original plan of mortgaging my shophouse," she said.
Some five months later, Liu met the man at a coffeeshop by chance yesterday and immediately confronted him. In the ensuing scuffle, her face was scratched bloody and she began wailing at the eatery, shocking many customers.
Liu said she had met the man when he came forward to help her after she was denied entry at a casino. At that time, her purse had been stolen and she could not enter the casino without her identity card.
"He helped me to pay a deposit of $200 so that I could enter the casino. He even treated me to dinner that night," she recalled.
Liu began to see the man as an elder brother after his help at the casino. She confided in him and made a decision in the same evening for a joint-investment with him. He even drove her to the bank the next day to withdraw the money.
However, Liu began to feel uneasy after she confided in her friend when she returned home that evening. Her friend pointed out that she had been too trusting to hand over the large sum of money to the man without any written proof.
True to her fears, Liu could no longer contact the man the next day.
