So I wanted to start a thread about 'momoka.' I am a momoka survivor. If you have met or been contacted by momoka, you will know what I mean. He is a self-proclaimed Japanese guy, self-proclaimed 34 year old, and self-proclaimed lover of western ladies, who contacts ladies via gokunming to rent them a room or look at their room for rent. After meeting, he will call/text/chat for months trying to get you to go out with him.

I've had a mixed experience with him. On the one hand, he's creepy. On the other hand, I can't stop laughing about him. In fact, it's 1 in the morning, and a group of us momoka survivors are all reminiscing about our momoka experiences.

**Here are the details:

He has smooth lines like: "Hey,I think u r beautiful!could u date with me?if so, the room could b free 4 u!:>"
And smooth moves like: arranging to meet you to show you his apt and 'forgets the keys', and suggests either a) that you ride on his scooter to another destination, or b) have dinner until the keys show up. He also pulls similar tricks if he's looking at your room for rent.

**And here are the running stats: Myself and 3 other foreign single ladies that I know have been scammed.

If you are also a momoka survivor, you don't have to be alone. Join the club, post your story here!

"Harrassed", and "Victim"....

I was looking the part where you describe him stalking you following you around all day, or tie you up in a basement.
A simple, polite no thanks would do... I don't see any harm done, he doesn't look dangerous from your description. Maybe he would end up marrying one of you.

I agree with slabo. This guy sounds pretty 'cheezy' to me. His 'pick up' lines are laughable. I've seen his ads here and found them annoying and desperate. I thought that no women in their right mind would answer that ad. Guess I was wrong (ha..ha.). At least the experience was amusing for you. Keep that and move on. Good Luck with your other fellows.

Glad you are all safe and sound. Can never be too careful. Women in Asia need to be extra alert to their surroundings.

To respond to slabo:
No, actually, a polite 'no thanks' did not do. After several 'no thanks,' and months of ignoring his attempts, I still get texts and e-mails from him. no real harm done, of course, except for the waste of my time.

And to Liuminke:

Neither I or any of my friends contacted momoka; he replied to our classifieds. So our minds being right has nothing to do with our experiences...it's just momoka!

And yes, you're right...Laughable!! That's why I made the post...so I could hear more good stories!

All kidding aside, perhaps this might be something that the PSA would better be fit to deal with. I'm sure that he wouldn't want to be deported out of China. Just a thought.

@momokaclub: Sorry to hear about this... I'd suggest not posting important personal information like your phone number or email in GoKunming's classifieds - or anywhere else on the internet. Once this info is public, anyone can harass you if they so wish...

The way GoKunming's classified system works, people who want to respond to your ad can do so without learning your phone number or email address (unless you include it in your ad). They can only learn your email address if you respond to their email.

So i guess i'm the most recent survivor, i started getting texts from him one night asking if he could come check out my room for rent, i said sure, then he kept texting me asking about me specifics about my name and where i was from, i gave him my name but that wasn't enough, he replied immidetly telling me he had asked where i was from, so naturally i didn't like him right off the back, then he wanted to know where we would meet, i told him which bus to take to get to my place, but he said he was on a "scooter" and probably wouldn't be able to find it so we should meet. Annoyed i just told him the easiest place to find near my place. Then the next day he calls me and is surprise that i'm not at the place i told him he calls me and asks me to meet him but i tell him i'll just give him directions, to which he doesn't sound happy about. It takes him forvever to get to my place and he asks me to come meet him a few times even when i can see him from my window, so i'm already thinking theres no way i'm gonna let this guy live me me, then he comes in to the apartment doesn't really look at the place just looks at me, i get him outta the house in about 5minutes since he doesn't really seem to care about the place, after he leaves, i assume i'll never hear from him, but low and behold i get a text from him, not knowing what to expect i'm peeved to read "Hi, i think u r too beautiful!could we date with each other?" i was not in the mood and couldn't be bothered to reply to that, so what do i get another text "Hi,did u get my last text?if so, how do u think?"

SO there's my story, but i guess i should have known better, and read this forum earlier, it wasn't till i told this to a friend that he suggested it might be this momoka guy, so he showed me the thread and i knew instantly it was him, despite ever asking him what his name was.

This Momoka man sound like really nice guy. I think you pretty western girls are all missing out...
