A Kiwi father on holiday with his family in Bali was kidnapped for more than four hours and forced to pay a card game which scammed him out of $2000.
The victim, whose wife spoke to the
Herald as he was too traumatised to talk, was alone on the streets of the resort island when a local man sat down on a bench beside him.
The pair started chatting and the local man said his sister was moving to Auckland to be a nurse and asked the Kiwi to talk to her about what it's like in New Zealand.
"My husband just thought, being a really nice guy, that it was fine," his wife said.
He got into a car with the Balinese man to speak to the women.
"The doors got shut and he got locked in and then he was driven away," the wife said.
