Rich Wall Streeters had it coming when they were swindled by a ring of buxom strip-club workers, one of the women involved claims.
The curvaceous crooks at the Scores strip club specifically targeted wealthy “a–holes,” men who were usually married and who deserved to be drugged and bilked, former dancer — and now conspiracy and fraud defendant — Roselyn Keo tells New York magazine.
Keo and accused mastermind Samantha Barbash preyed on clients who treated them badly to get revenge, Keo said.
“That’s why I think we got greedy. Because of the amount of stress we had to endure. We’re just like, ‘You know what — these people are f–king pissing me off. Just for that, I’m going to max out his credit card, like a penalty. You’re going to be left with a zero balance. Zero credit line. Just for being annoying,’” Keo told the magazine.
The vindictive vixens preyed on doctors and Wall Street executives, spiking their drinks with MDMA and ketamine, causing them to black out.
It sounds so bad to say that we were, like, drugging people. But it was, like, normal.

When the men called the club to complain about their credit-card bills — including one totaling $135,000 — Barbash would turn on the charm, Keo said.
“You were so happy. Don’t you remember? You were tipping everyone,” she would say, according to Keo — adding that the men usually didn’t call police for fear their spouses or bosses would find out.
The strippers felt no guilt about conning clients who disrespected them or made sexually crude requests, Keo said. “There’s something extra satisfying about persuading a man who thinks you’re trash to spend his time and money on you,” she dished.
“Preferably so much that in the end, they hate themselves. It’s like, ‘Who doesn’t have any self-respect now, motherf–ker?’
“They all walked in ready to party. And yeah, we slipped them extra [drugs] that they didn’t know about. But all of it goes hand in hand — sex, drugs, and rock ’n’ roll. You know?” Keo said.
Her scam fell apart last year after a New Jersey doctor Zyad Younan, claimed he’d been drugged when he racked up a $135,000 bill at Scores. A federal DEA investigation confirmed he was telling the truth.
Barbash and three others pleaded guilty in the scheme. Keo is also expected to take a deal and is due in court in February.
