An Australian influencer has sent out a warning to others after having a night out in Paris with friends and discovering that the next day she'd been charged $5,000 (£3,700).

Jacquie Alexander posted in a recent video on TikTok where she explained that she'd been out with her friends in a bar in Paris and the next thing she knew, a man who everyone seemed to know was inviting them to his club.

About an hour later as they were leaving the bar and thinking where to go next, they decided on the club, since the man had promised to 'sort you all out'.

Despite there being a 'huge line' to get in, she and her friends were let in without paying the entrance fee, but then things started 'getting weird'.

Jacquie explained that one of her friends was wearing shorts and that wasn't allowed in the club, but the club had a clothes shop inside where people could buy some things at very high prices, and from there things got worse.

"We go in and then he sets us up with a table, and he's like 'just get anything, it's all on me', or so we think," she explained.

"We get a bottle of tequila, a very expensive bottle of tequila, and from here until when I woke up the next morning I don't remember anything.

"I have no recollection of anything, I am so lucky I was with a really good group of friends, I was with people that got me home safe.

"This morning I woke up in my bed, like on top of my bed just in my clothes. I don't do that."

She then checked her bank account and her 'heart dropped' when she was 'smacked in the face with an amount from the club that I did not authorise'.

Looking up reviews of the club, Jacquie and her friends found people 'saying they'd been roofied there' and people 'took money off their card without their consent'.

She said it was a 'very upsetting' thing to go through and that she was 'so lucky it was only money'.

Jacquie told her followers she was 'well aware' that on a night out you 'shouldn't trust anyone', and people reassured her that whatever she'd done that night 'doesn't make their actions any more justifiable', and was 'completely down to people taking advantage'.

Drink spiking is a serious and widespread problem, with seven out of 10 18-24 year olds in the UK saying they've either experienced it or witnessed it according to research from LADbible and Stamp Out Spiking.

Alarmingly, 87 percent of people targeted with drink spiking decided not to report the matter to the police, and only 11 percent of those who raised the alarm inside a venue said they felt they'd had enough support from the staff.

One woman, who said she took her eyes off her drink for just five seconds, ended up getting spiked, recounting that it left her 'practically paralysed' and 'violently sick for hours'.

"Watch your drinks and always have someone you trust around you," was her advice to people.
