Talk to the police. This is extortion. You can't consent to anything when you're drugged or intoxicated (forced signature that was coerced so null and void) and it's potentially even kidnapping or holding you against your will since they refused to let your ride take you out. No promises but they likely did something wrong here. Not to mention there were drugs. You partook but you likely have immunity to any charges by not possessing any and being a victim like basically how a kid at a party would be. Take them out and reveal the scam. Tell the police literally everything you know and get the other people to do so as well. This is a problem and people could be harmed here. They could be trafficking. Who knows? It's a bad club that needs to get raided. Just imagine there's bad drugs and someone dies, or someone doesn't pay.

I definitely don't want anyone else to have to be going through what we're dealing with so it absolutely needs to be stopped. I just thought going to the police wouldn't do anything since I "technically" agreed to everything. Which I also remember them having to get a video recording of me stating my name and that I was NOT intoxicated because that charge was over 10k. I can guarantee anyone that watches that video can see that wouldn't have been true.

That's like the definition of being coerced. So this is definitely important information for the police and the credit card company.

Also the part about where you thought you didn't want any problems and had better just pay? Please emphasize it.

DISPUTE THE CHARGES. SAY THEY WERE FRAUD, STAY OUT OF DALLAS. YOUR CC COMPANY WILL MAKE YOU WHOLE. THIS IS THE ONLY THING TO DO.

Stay out of Dallas? What, is a hit man going to come after him?

No. But last time he was in Dallas he made some questionable decisions, so it’s probably best if he stays away.

I feel like the questionable decisions have more to do with the person than the place

I've been to Dallas a million times. Nothing like this ever happened. How about just stay out of shady, disgusting clubs? I know exactly where he was. You can tell just driving by that these are not classy places.

Don’t go to the police. Talk to a lawyer first. It’s worth not going to jail, and they’ll get your money back.

Don't tell them you agreed, just tell the cops they are defrauding you.

I had this happen to me as well awhile back. Just made my own thread about it in r/legaladvice sub. Except no drugs. Just was intoxicated when I stepped into the club and lead to the back not knowing what was going on. Before I knew it, I had signed a contract for $2800 plus the girl scammed me $800 thru Venmo and cash out of my pocket. While they were still serving me, and I was intoxicated and not myself when signing.

OP should be talking to a lawyer first. You don't go to the police when you've done something potentially incriminating until you talk to a lawyer.

Based on the reviews of almost every club in Dallas, it's not a new issue. I remember one guy saying the bouncer mugged him in the parking lot.

I’d say at least get a police report and then report it to your bank as fraud because they will ask you if you reported it to the police
