A 20-something woman has been using Facebook to lure men to Bronx hotels, where two armed cohorts then rob the trio’s victims, cops say.
Investigators are looking at five such robberies between July 7 and Tuesday, police said.
“Once both [the woman and victim] are inside of the hotel room, the female instructs the male to take a shower, and while he is in the bathroom she lets into the hotel room another female and a male,” the NYPD said.
“When the victim exits the bathroom the second female and the male both display firearms at the victim and threaten to shoot him.”
The three robbers then use duct tape to bind their victims and remove personal property, including the clothes that the targets are wearing, as well as cash and cellphones. No injuries requiring hospitalization were reported in any of the incidents.
The first incident happened around 6:30 pm
