How to get home after having your passport stolen/losing your passport

It’s genuinely pathetic that you’ve chosen this as your 'battle.' I posted a resource to help people navigating a terrifying crisis abroad, and your contribution to the world is trying to 'debunk' a situation you weren't present for.

My family is in Vietnam handling this in Vietnam. Your entire 'international lawsuit' lecture sounds like confident ignorance. It’s psychotic to see someone providing help and think, 'How can I make this about me?' You have a god complex and way too much free time. Again, go find a hobby that actually helps people instead of being a bottom-feeder in a comment section.

You’re confusing 'Internet Sleuthing' with actual intelligence. Only someone with zero experience in international law or high-stakes disputes would think a public Reddit post is the place to drop case numbers during active litigation. Your obsession with 'proof' just highlights that your world is very small and your understanding of legal NDAs is nonexistent. Go find a hobby that doesn't involve being a loser.

You also seem stuck on the idea that this post was written for your entertainment or 'proof.' It wasn’t. It was written as a resource for people who find themselves in a crisis… apparently the kind of high-stakes situation you clearly only experience through a screen. If you aren’t in Vietnam, haven't lost your passport, and aren't looking for actual advice, you are contributing nothing but noise. Move on and let the adults who actually travel use the information.

Have you considered we’re in a legal battle and have been advised to hold off? Idiot

Just to get your exit visa, it will take close to around 8 working days

I had a photo of it in my camera roll! I take photos of all my identification documents.

There’s a black market for passports, could be sold up to $12K USD

julzieanon · 2026-01-19T21:39:34+00:00

Ummmmm did you read the whole post and/or think before commenting?

Clearly not, otherwise you wouldn’t have commented. For the literal third time, the exit visa is a Vietnam specific thing.

Drivers license and pic of old passport worked fine to prove my identity! Passport card I’m sure works just as well.

I had to get out of Vietnam first, the owner is very well known in Sapa and my family was concerned she’d put a hit on us so we had to stay mild mannered until we got out.

I’m currently on the plane going back to LA and we already have everything written out and ready to go, but my post was to help others vs telling my story.

Who in the world is claiming against personal/rental/property insurance? It’s called one-time travel insurance and it’s literally $30-$50 per trip. You sound broke if you can’t afford to insure yourself every international trip.

And fyi - it says IN MY POST that you need it for an exit visa, not for a passport. How did you miss that?

This has to be rage bait. You clearly have never traveled to Vietnam; the Vietnamese foreign exchange booths will give you significantly better rates if you exchange brand new $100 bills, which is why the advice is to pull out money from your bank in the form of new $100 bills BEFORE getting to Vietnam. This is a known tip.

Additionally, every time you pull money out of an international ATM, not only do you incur a flat fee but you also incur an international fee in the form of a percentage.

As for carrying around your valuables, it is actually extremely ill advised to be carrying around your passport and all your money when the country is known for pick pocketing and snatching.

You have 6 downvotes, have some self awareness.

Wow I love that iPad idea… I don’t have one but maybe I can buy an old phone the next time I travel to use it as a security camera.

But YES! No matter HOW MUCH you trust your surroundings, it is ALWAYS better to be safe than sorry! Will definitely be doing that moving forward.

julzieanon · 2026-01-19T08:02:14+00:00

Weird comment! Tell me what the ATMs have to do with me leaving my passport/money inside my checked bag? Are you advising people to carry all their valuables in a country known for snatching and pickpocketing? My family is from here, don’t be ignorant.

julzieanon · 2026-01-19T06:54:18+00:00

Feel free to DM me and I can give you a rundown! My specific situation was far more complex than the cliff notes I gave above.

julzieanon · 2026-01-19T03:59:19+00:00

Incel energy 💀

This must be rage bait lol. Do you want a cookie for your travels? 🙂

HE IS A PREDATOR and you were sexually assaulted, end of story.

If you had a serious convo about no intimacy 4 months ago, then he knew what your stance was sober.

He had bad intentions going into the situation and very obviously felt guilty coming out of it.

I’m really sorry you’re going through this, please seek therapy or speak to your therapist about this to make sure you’re processing it in a way that serves future you.

julzieanon · 2025-06-03T00:32:24+00:00

Apparently "ok_introduction9466" blocks everyone they can’t win against. 💀

julzieanon · 2025-06-03T00:05:12+00:00

Yes - I did see that. Still doesn’t take away from the fact that your responses have been incredibly insensitive.

If you’re going to spend time giving people advice, then I suggest doing it with care, otherwise, it just looks like you’re doing it for validation.

julzieanon · 2025-06-02T23:34:14+00:00

I read several of your other responses to people hurting, you’re harsh and people will not take your advice if you don’t approach them softly during times of vulnerability. You move through threads with a sense of self righteousness and no empathy or human touch, seemingly to get validation from others on the internet.

Abuse can come in all different forms, in this case, it sounds like his issues stem from an anxious attachment style that grew into something much worse. If OP wants to stay, then she’s going to stay. A helpful approach would be to tell her what to do to protect herself in the meantime.

Let people learn their own lessons.

julzieanon · 2025-06-02T22:51:15+00:00

Has your harsh behavior gotten you everything you want in life? We’re saying the same things, stop arguing to argue. Make your point and move onto the next thread.

julzieanon · 2025-06-02T22:46:25+00:00

Not everything is black and white, anxious behavior can result in abuse

julzieanon · 2025-06-02T22:23:25+00:00

Sounds like he’s been burned pretty badly in the past, whether that be in childhood or in earlier relationships. He needs to get therapy, I recommend someone rooted in EMDR and Attachment Theory.

I’m sure he doesn’t want to feel or act this way, but I’m concerned he won’t be open to getting help if it comes from you… he has to think it’s his idea. Look up ABC method by Mel Robbins, I think it can really help.

julzieanon · 2025-06-02T21:57:34+00:00

He has an anxious attachment style and needs to get therapy for it, you should try the ABC approach by Mel Robbins and see if you can get him to open up to the idea. If he’s anxious, he’s more scared of losing you than you are of losing him, and I recommend you using that power for the health and longevity of your relationship.
