Hostel Tuanis, Hostel Costa Rica Hostel Scam Costa Rica: Chef, Won trust, cooked well, promised discount items, then ran with the money, San Jose

Erik Acuna Rojas paid for 2 nights stay and was very hospitable to the guests. He stated he was a professional chef and supported this alias by cooking well, cleaning plates and doing almost anything guests asked. He portrayed himself as being very humble and ensured everyone liked him. He informed the owner he was bringing in 9 of his friends for a week.
After two days of cooking, cleaning and building trust he informed management and guests that his cousin could get liters of discount Flora de Cana Rum for $10 a bottle. On 11 April he swindled $60 from the staff and $40 from guests then disappeared.

He did leave his real name, identification number and some personal details. He is from Grecia, Alajuela. A staff member went to Grecia the following day and learned that he was known in town and had tried to steal money from at least 2 small business owners there.
