Ok so i decided to leave Medellin and it was probably the hardest place to leave. Sooo i had a pretty rough and intense day, to say the least. So i woke up, called my mom, checked my wells fargo account which apparently there was some sort of problem. I didn´t think it would be serious bc every now and then they question some sort of charge i have. Well this would be very different!!
I checked my credit card balance, and i hardly ever use this card, just for emergencies, because i primarily use my citibank debit mastercard. But i saw on my wellsfargo that there was a 3200 usd charge in quito for HotWheels.inc
And the charge occured while i was in colombia. Soooo i called them up and told it was bogus. I think what happened is one time i took cash out of an atm and they must have had some sort of device that copied the card, i have no idea.
But the real problem was that i only had 50,0000 pesos, or about 25usd on me at the time. AND i was transferring money into my citibank account, which only had 13 usd in. Sooo i was in medellin, ready to leave, and now i had only a little bit of money, enough to eat on, as i can eat here for 4 or 5 usd if i have to. BUT still i wanted to leave. Soooo i pleaded with the wells fargo to allow me to make one more cash advance before she shuts the card down....
anddd luckily for me she did...so i rushed to the atm and grabbed 200usd out, for i didnt know exactly how long the citibank transfer would take and then wells fargo shut the card down...
so i started with 3 cards on this trip, got one stolen in ushuiua, argentina right away and now i had this fraud problem now so at the moment i only have one, and i will hold onto this one very tight!!
Then to top the day off i was getting ready to board my bus to santa marta (on the caribbean coast) and there was a dog by my leg. As there are many stray dogs around, i lightly kicked the dog to get away from me. OOOOPS!!! It was a police dog. DAMNNN!!! Sooo all of a sudden the cops were yelling in my face, WHY DID U DO THAT?? and i say that i thought it was a stray dog. And they say WE DONT BELIEVE U!!! WE THINK YOU HAVE DRUGS!! U HAVE DRUGS DONT U!! WE KNOW U DO!! Soo at this moment i am freaking out inside but am trying to act calm, and because i didnt have drugs on me. But i kept in the back of my mind Cambodia, where i got marijuana slipped into my bag somehow at the thailand/camboadian border. Sooo i just tried to see if the cops were trying to set me up, maybe slip something in my bag and then arrest me. Soo they did a pretty thorough body search, which i REALLY didnt enjoy, and then they searched my bags, had the dogs sniffing all around my stuff, looked at all my documents, and eventually they just up and left me be.....Onwards to the coast, hope i have better luck there
