Stealing while drunk.

You never know what intentions people hold while coming into a bar. It’s not exactly like the movies, you know. Careless, free-form dancing with anyone you like or dramatically spilling drinks is quite unusual. But yes, you do meet people and TALK to them and get to know them. However, people could take advantage of you if you’re too drunk. Not just that, you might also have something stolen from you. For instance, maybe $2000?

Yes, that’s right. Recently, a drunk woman stole $2000 from a guy’s Venmo account. Let’s read all about the tale told by the bar owner herself.

this dude has been calling my bar to check the cameras because he asked a girl to put her number into his phone & she Venmo’d herself $2,000 😭 drunk bitches are GENIUS

Obviously, the bar owners and employees are way too busy to sit around and watch hours-long footage of a bunch of drunk people doing stupid things. But the best part about this story is that some good did come out of it. After the tweet went viral, here’s what happened:

The guy came back to the bar tonight & asked if I was the one that posted this tweet. I told him I was and then he thanked me for making him famous. And I was like no thank YOU for making ME famous. He also got his money refunded (‘:

The tweet was also shared by a Facebook page named Bitch Code.

All types of comments flew in response. Here are some of the really interesting ones for you.

How do we even know she did it? Maybe it’s just another jealous man who has it out for her. We have to be careful with accusing women because an allegation like this could ruin her career and her future. This could follow her around for life. She has a family to take care of!

-Kate Wilson

Yes, you could say otherwise.

Well, if he opened up his wallet once to spend money in the past, why is he upset that he spent money here too? It’s not like his bank account is pristine.

-Nicole McCarthy-Moore

Yeah maybe because he was too drunk or didn’t notice at that moment.

If he didn’t complain in that moment, he wanted it to happen and cannot complain now.

-Christopher Hall

I can laugh at this all day long.

Agreed. Clearly a case of regret, not theft, here. Just because he changed his mind the next day he’s trying to ruin this woman’s future. Disgusting.

-Megan Gennette

Some of them actually turned the tables.

Innocent until proven guilty. You know how many men these days make up false accusations of robbery against women ? They have a vendetta. I think there should be higher penalties for men who claim false robbery.

-Denali Summer

Why would he be lying though?

If it’s legitimate robbery, the phone has ways to try to shut the whole thing down.

-Tony Cortez

Not to any surprise, most of the reactions are against him.

Did another woman witness this so called “robbery”? Bc unless her friends are willing to back up his story I don’t see how he could prove he didn’t want her to have the money.

-Sybil Angone

People have got to stop being so sarcastic, or I’ll die laughing.

It’s not safe for men to go drinking in public by themselves, he really only has himself to blame for this. Maybe next time he will think ahead before making such irresponsible choices.

-Jessica Leigh

Why do you have to bring Trump into this? Why?

Grab em’ by the Venmo ✊🏽

-Jessica Barga

Someone, please shoot me in the head.

I mean he did give her his phone… & he didn’t exactly say that she CANT have $2,000 sOoOo… 🤷🏼‍♀️

-Heather ‘Gigi’ Giordano

That’s a better story than the real one, to be honest.

The REAL story… He said you’re gorgeous I have $2000 for you right now if you sleep w/me tonight… She said sure, let me give you my Venmo account… She put her info in, he sent the money… Then when they were about to leave to go do the do she went to smoke a cigarette and never came back… He was left holding hard 🍆 and had instant regret… Instead of calling the police and admitting that he solicited sex he made up a story about giving her his phone to enter her number🤷🏽‍♀️🤷🏽‍♀️🤷🏽‍♀️🤷🏽‍♀️🤷🏽‍♀️🤷🏽‍♀️

-Tygress Apollonia

That’s quite true.

Look, I don’t think I believe his story. Like 50% of theft reports are false. And tbh, being falsely accused of theft is WAY worse than being stolen from. Just my 2 cents.

-Sandy Hildebrandt

LOL.

But what is the address of the bar? And who else was there? Did the woman record the visit to the bar in her day planner?

-Erica Whitaker

I know right!

Look, there’s two sides to every story. She deserves a fair trial – let’s not ruin her life and promising career because he drunkenly made a bad financial decision. Smh boys, you need to be more careful.
