I had my phone number stolen and someone accessed my bank accounts. They made purchases and deposits in Santander and Falabella, and now they're charging me for a personal loan I never asked for. I've been trying to resolve this for 4 months, but they're still sending me emails saying they're working on my case. If I don't pay the loan, what will happen?

I've got a friend from Asia coming to visit for a few days, and she's asked me to show her around and teach her some salsa and cumbia dancing to end the day. I was thinking of taking her to Chapultepec, a bit of Roma, and ending at Mamarrumba. But I'm open to better ideas.

I'm planning a trip in March with my two nephews and niece, aged 19-22, who want to explore the nightlife. They'll be accompanied by their 51-year-old aunt. I'm well-traveled and have done solo travel before, but they're just starting to get their passport stamps. I speak some Spanish and my niece is proficient. I'd like to know the best neighborhoods for them to stay and safely explore at night, as well as some nightlife recommendations suitable for college kids and their aunt.

I was waiting for a friend at the TAPO station in Mexico City, and a man in his 60s sat next to me and started talking. He asked me if I was alone, where I lived, my name, and when I was returning. I told him lies and was relieved when my friend arrived and we left. Should I have done something else?

I was walking back from university one day and noticed that the vendors in a market near my home were throwing away bags of fresh vegetables. I went back the next day and rescued the food, now I'm getting most of my groceries for free. It's really concerning to me that so much food is being wasted, especially since produce is expensive right now and many people in the city can't afford it. Would someone be willing to help me collect this waste and find a way to distribute it to those in need?
