Story of a 200 Euro Fake Pizza.. Security Reveals the Truth About What Happened with the ‘Drunk’ Tourist

Moroccan authorities have firmly denied viral social media claims that a German tourist was forced to pay €200 for a pizza meal in Marrakech before being removed from a local restaurant.

The allegations gained widespread attention after a video began circulating online showing a restaurant owner confronting and eventually preventing a foreign woman from entering his establishment. Accompanying captions and comments claimed that the woman had been the victim of a scam and was expelled after protesting an allegedly outrageous bill of €200 for a single pizza.

As the video quickly spread across social media platforms, Marrakech police opened an investigation to determine the facts surrounding the incident.

According to a statement issued by local authorities, investigators found that no complaint or official report had ever been filed by the tourist or any other person regarding the alleged overcharging incident. Police also confirmed that no reports matching the details described in the viral posts had been received by the city’s security services.

The investigation led officers to identify and interview the restaurant owner featured in the video. During questioning, the owner explained that the incident had actually taken place more than a week before the Eid al-Adha holiday and had nothing to do with a disputed restaurant bill.
