Kind of gay.
You know the odds are against you when a Filipino's dealing the cards and a Nigerian's safeguarding the pot.

Now that's high pressure scamming!
Get the cash before we run out of gas.
They probably lost the money they scammed out of the tourist in a card game & couldn't afford to fill up.
Only fools & horses :lol:

Fantastic news. Loved the part where he told nearby Khmers, in English, that he is in fact a motodop. 5/5 would watch again.

Interesting and a little odd that the scammers would also be straight forward robbers. I mean, if you are up for committing violent robberies, why go through the time consuming trouble of scamming some people? I wonder if the fact that they are also robbers and are not committing crimes only against tourists but locals too, will make the police take a second look at the blackjack scammers working openly on the riverfront, in the parks, etc.

And what's this about English-speaking foreigners (Filipinos) pretending to be motodups at the airport and ribbing tourists? I hadn't heard that one before.

Moto-dops don't usually work two to a moto.

Would you get on a moto at night that has two moto-dops?

Now, robbers on the other hand often work in pairs.

More likely that they scammed the Cambo in the card sting & escorted him to get the money, then he played his last ace.
