At Least Three Men Fell For ‘Let’s Have Sex On A Pile Of Cash’ Robbery Scam

The man who was robbed of $2,000 that he was bringing to a romantic encounter with a woman he met online isn’t alone. At least two other would-be lovers brought huge quantities of cash to roll around on with the mystery woman, but were robbed instead. Police in Mountain View, California have made three arrests, and have asked any other victims out there to come forward. 

The suspects are two 19-year-old men and a juvenile. Police know of three confirmed cases, dating back to May of this year.
