It was the opposite of getting lucky.
Several male tourists and Manhattanites were lured back to their hotels and apartments by a sexy seductress – only to have her steal tens of thousands of dollars in cash and jewelry, sources said Thursday.
Quying Boyd, 34, was arrested in Midtown on Tuesday, when she was recognized at a nightclub, sources added.
Boyd’s first target was a 36-year-old Manhattan man who met the con-artist at the Chelsea hotspot Avenue on March 15 and took her back to his apartment across town, sources said. The unsuspecting man fell asleep and awoke the next day to find his debit card and a $2,500 Celine handbag he had in the home were gone, sources added.
Boyd was captured on video using the man’s missing credit card to buy more than $500 worth of items at a CVS drug store on Park Avenue South soon afterward, law enforcement sources added.
Investigators are looking into whether she targeted a similar victim in the PH-D rooftop lounge at the Dream Hotel on West 16th Street four days later.
The suspect sidled up to a 40-year-old man and she wanted to accompany him to his hotel room, sources said. Once there, she ordered him to shower, sources said. When the man came out of the bathroom for more steamy action, the temptress said she was going downstairs to get her girlfriend but she never returned, sources added.
About 15-minutes later, that victim realized 4,500 euros and his Australian passport were missing from his jacket pocket.
On April 1, a 53-year-old man thought he was going to get lucky but instead has had his $40,000 Roger DuBois watch and $2,200 taken from a hotel safe, sources said.
Boyd went back to the Benjamin Hotel with that man, asked him to shower and then abruptly said she had to leave, according to a criminal court complaint and other sources.
The $42,200 worth of goods in that case were taken from a locked safe, the victim told cops.
Boyd’s luck ran out after an alert security officer spotted her cruising for men at Avenue on April 29 and knew she was a suspected of scamming men out of thousands of dollars at a time, sources added.
He notified cops who took her to the Midtown East precinct for questioning and booked her on grand larceny charges.
Investigators are looking into similar cases in surrounding neighborhoods to see if she’s connected, sources said.
