Australian Influencer Slams Paris Nightclub After Blacking Out And Waking Up To A $5,000 Charge She Never Authorized

by Jesse

We all know the drill—a fun night out with friends, maybe a little dancing, a couple of drinks, and hopefully, a memorable evening. But what if that memory turns into a nightmare that leaves you waking up with a $5,000 bill you never expected? 

That’s exactly what happened to Australian influencer Jacquie Alexander during a recent trip to Paris, and now she’s issuing a major warning to partygoers everywhere.

In a TikTok video that’s quickly gone viral, Jacquie recounted the details of her evening, which took a sharp turn from glamorous to gut-wrenching. 

It all started innocently enough. She and her friends were having a blast at a bar in Paris when a seemingly well-known man invited them to a nearby nightclub which he owned. 

He promised to “sort them all out,” and when they arrived at the club, they were whisked past a massive line without even paying an entrance fee. Sounds like VIP treatment, right? Well, not quite.

Things took a strange turn when one of Jacquie’s friends, who was wearing shorts, was told they couldn’t enter the club. The solution? The club conveniently had an overpriced clothes shop inside where they could buy more appropriate attire. 

That should have been the first red flag, but Jacquie and her friends pressed on. They eventually splurged on an expensive bottle of tequila. And that’s where the night started to blur.

The next thing Jacquie remembers is waking up in her clothes on top of her bed with no memory of how she got there. Feeling groggy and confused, she checked her bank account only to have her heart drop.

Her account was drained, and after some digging, Jacquie and her friends discovered numerous reviews claiming similar experiences at this club—reports of drink spiking, unauthorized charges, and outright theft. Some patrons alleged they had been “roofied” and had money taken from their cards without their consent. 

Before the Paris drama, there was this perfect proposal. Congrats, Jacquie!

Jacquie, thankfully unharmed physically, was still left to deal with the emotional aftermath of being so severely taken advantage of.

Unfortunately, drink spiking is an all-too-common issue. According to research from Stamp Out Spiking, 70% of 18-24-year-olds in the UK have either experienced or witnessed it. Yet, most incidents go unreported, with only 11% of victims feeling they received adequate support from venue staff.

Understandably shaken, Jacquie shared her story to warn others about the dangers that can lurk even in the most glamorous settings. While she’s grateful to have come out of the experience with just a hefty bill and not something far worse, her story underscores the importance of staying vigilant. As Jacquie put it, “I’m so lucky it was only money.”

Jacquie’s advice is clear: always watch your drink and surround yourself with people you trust. It might not prevent every danger, but it could save you from waking up to an empty bank account—or worse.
