Hey, thanks for the replies. Essentially, I want to get the police involved because I'm sure the restaurant will get them involved if I don't. The restaurant copied my national health insurance card which has my address on it. The bill is ridiculous...like $230 something in US dollars. The problem is that I can't pay it. I get a certain amount for food every month, and that's over half of it. Paying that would prevent me from eating most likely, even if I did only have cheap stuff from the 99 yen shop or something.

As for the post about how I met her, I am in Tokyo, but I met her from an online personals ad site. There's probably no way at all to track her. I mean I understand that no one will waste resources just because someone got conned out of a huge dinner bill, but I just want to see what the police say and let the restaurant know my situation. I'm not sure if there's anyway anyone would show sympathy, but I am in a bad spot. Also, I only waited about 30-45 minutes. It was late at night and when the restaurant was closing soon when she left.

I wasn't thrown off by the laptop box because she said she travels a lot for business, and she said she had just gotten back from Osaka so she would be late.

I hope I answered all the questions, but does anyone know anywhere in Tokyo that police would speak English, even on the weekends? I would like to go as soon as possible.

Thanks again
