Four exotic dancers and a strip club manager were busted in an organized plot to drug wealthy professionals and run up $200,000 in illegal charges on their stolen credit cards at New York City Gentleman's Clubs, authorities said Wednesday.
The strippers also shockingly blackmailed some of the men by threatening to publicly release sexually explicit photos of them in compromising positions after they were secretly drugged, sources told The Post.
The Drug Enforcement Agency, along with the NYPD and the Westchester County Police Department, rounded up the five suspects Tuesday night for preying on a hedge fund manager, financial manager, doctor and real estate agent, authorities said.

The four dancers — Samantha Barbash, Roselyn Keo, Karina Pasucci and Marsi Rosen — were charged with conspiracy, grand larceny, assault and forgery.
A manager at the Roadhouse NYC Gentleman's Club in College Point, Queens, was arrested and charges against him are pending.
Barbash, Keo and Rosen were arraigned in Manhattan Supreme Court on Tuesday and Pasucci will be arraigned Wednesday.
According to authorities, the strippers usually trolled for their victims at tiny Manhattan bars and restaurants over a four month period beginning in September 2013.
On some occasions, they allegedly met the victims on the pretense of a "date."
Working together, they secretly drugged the victims with Molly, tranquillizers and cocaine, cops said.
They then drove the victims to either Scores on Manhattan's West Side or the Roadhouse in Queens, police said.
Once inside the clubs, they allegedly brought the zonked out victims to a private adult entertainment room, stole their credit cards and discussed how much to charge on the cards.
Barbash and Keo headed up the credit scam, and, in some instances, sought out the manager's financial advice, authorities said.
The strippers charged tens of thousands of dollars on the victims' cards by forging their signatures or making them think they were signing the bill for a significantly lower amount, authorities said.
The women also brought some of their prey to high-end hotels, including the Gansevoort in the Meatpacking District, sources said.
In the hotel rooms, they snapped photos of the victims or filmed them in compromising sexual positions with women and men, sources said.
When the victims awoke in the morning, they couldn't remember what happened as a result of being drugged.
And they learned about the illegal transactions only after they received their bank statements or calls from their credit card companies.
The suspects allegedly tried to reverse some or all of the credit card charges.
They also texted the victims, threatening to expose their compromising photos if they contested the charges or went to the authorities, sources said.
