Twenty arrested for duping tourists seeking sex

Twenty people were arrested for enticing men into paying large amounts of money after leading them to believe they were paying for sex, according to Las Vegas police.

The victims, mostly male tourists, would be escorted off the property by a bouncer once they realized they had been duped, police said.

The Nevada Taxicab Authority assisted in the investigation, and cab drivers who knew what was happening and received kickbacks for delivering customers could face charges.

Warrants were served Wednesday at Club Exclusive II, on South Polaris Avenue, near Spring Mountain Road; at Sensations, on South Industrial Road, near Desert Inn Road; and Entyce, on West Twain Avenue, near Valley View Boulevard.

Police said the businesses billed themselves as "reflexology" centers.

Most of the suspects arrested were women. Police said they face charges including conspiracy, racketeering and crimes relating to fraud and obtaining money under false pretenses.
