Los Angeles (CNN)Prosecutors in Los Angeles have hit the defendant they call the "Dine-and-Dash Dater" with four new felony counts of extortion.

Paul Guadalupe Gonzales, 45, is accused of 11 counts of extortion and two counts of attempted extortion for allegedly luring women to nice restaurants, ordering food and vanishing -- sticking his victims with the bill.
The public defender's office has not returned calls for comment.
"It was humiliating," said an alleged victim, who asked CNN in an exclusive phone interview to identify her only with the pseudonym Jane. "I was frustrated. It just left me in a bad place."
 
 
Jane said she wrote a check for $218 to Houston's restaurant in Pasadena after Gonzales walked out on the bill.
She recalled how they met on the dating site Bumble.
"We just chatted back and forth. He was charming," Jane continued. "He said, 'Why not meet somewhere?'"
Jane said Gonzales ordered drinks and the most expensive item on Houston's menu. The Houston's website lists its top item as a steak for $48.
Jane said Gonzales told her when he first sat down for dinner he would have to make a phone call later to check on his aunt, who was hospitalized.
After the meal, Gonzales made his call and disappeared, she recalled.
"He left after most of his food was gone," she said. "I've never seen anybody eat so fast."
It didn't occur to her that someone would walk out on her.
"That just never came to mind," Jane said. "What is he benefiting from it, really? Is that all you want, is a free meal?"
