Scammed in Athens

Hello!

I’m visiting Athens for a few weeks and yesterday I was walking around the Acropolis and an old man starting chatting with me. Long story short, he told me he wanted to buy me a drink and took me into a bar and left. They charged me $100 for the drink and showed me it on their menu. I paid because I was scared and assumed the police wouldn’t help.

If I want to dispute this charge with my credit card, what should I tell them? Is the only way to get this charge removed is to say I lost my card and the $100 charge wasn’t me? Should I tell them the truth?

I’m American and use a Chase bank credit card is that helps.

Thank you!
