Invite them to your place. I agree with - had friend who was persuaded to go to a supposed 'new bar' and was overcharged horrendously - they wouldnt let him leave until he paid.
Information about gay bars and clubs in Istanbul
By coincidence when he left a police car was nearby and he informed police what had happened. The police officer went back to bar with him and got money back from bar owner - policeman then put half money in his pocket and said 'this is the way it works in Turkey'. Lot's of policemen don't even speak that much English to be able to put those words together. Wanderin star, this is purely hearsay and not your personal experience.

I find your remarks offensive and resent the generalized implication in those words about Turkish people. And as to your comment not many policeman know how to put those words together in English - are you now implying most Turkish police cannot speak any English. I actually witnessed the final part of this situation - so if you want to call me a liar so be it.
Thank you for your advice list IQ. I think this is sound advice for any single visitor to Istanbul ,male or female gay or straight. Whilst gay people can feel more vulnerable in a foreign country due to their sexuality it is still good advice for anyone to avoid anyone who suddenly wants to be your new best friend-and take you to meet their best friends. The forum has had many warnings about scams of this nature so an update is good to have. Just to add to this - all my previous comments about Turkish people in general are very favourable.
In fact I have experienced more kindness and friendliness than most countries I have visited.
Gay Bars and Clubs in Istanbul
My incident was really meant to warn gay tourists that any problems they encounter, unless really serious, I would not expect much help or sympathy from the police. I am not suggesting all police are like this, just that this was the situation this particular time. These types of crimes happen all the time here and as far as the police go.. The most recent version of Time Out Istanbul warns gay tourists not to expect gay nightlife similar to what they find in major cities in Europe or the US.
While this guide acknowledges that there are a few gay bars today compared to the s, when there was only one, it also warns that the scene is much less diverse today. I have no personal knowledge of any of these establishments, but, as the original poster suggests, I would avoid them because of the danger of encountering professionals. People interested in more information about gay lifestyles in Istanbul might investigate these web sites: I intended to add, people should exercise the same care that they would in any big city.
These scams are certainly not unique to Istanbul. Regarding the behavior of an Istanbul police officer, I cannot comment on what I did not experience, but I can acknowledge that the police in Istanbul have always seemed exceptionally helpful to us. In fact, it seems like one of them almost always appears whenever a carpet salesman is particularly persistent. We have had more interaction with the police in Istanbul than we do anywhere other than our own community, and we have always found them to be impressively respectful and unfailingly helpful.
