What are the top five scams about travel? Did you get caught?

I don't know what these five scams are, but one scam I experienced during my trip is still impressive.

Our tour group entered Vietnam from Guangxi, and first entered Mang Street in Vietnam. After the tour group entered Mang Street, we were received by a Vietnamese girl. Because it's not time for dinner, the girl said she would take us around Mang Street. Turning around, the girl took us to a family. The girl said that after such a long time, everyone was tired and rested at his home, which is an overseas Chinese. So we were taken to the fifth floor and sat in a room full of sofas. Someone brought us tea.

After sitting for a while, a man came in. Unexpectedly, he spoke fluent Chinese and said "Sorry to keep you waiting". Then we just chatted casually. He said that his grandfather and father were both from China, and their ancestral home was # #, when they came to Vietnam, and so on. It happened that we are also # # people. So as a fellow villager, everyone talked about it. The man also said that his hometown has relatives and often contacts. A relative is still the deputy director of a bureau in his hometown. His name is # # #, and someone in our tour group knows him. Everyone is getting closer and closer to the Vietnamese, and more and more believe what he said.

We chatted for a while. The man said that someone came from his hometown and happened to come to his home. Destiny takes a hand, he must give each of us a gift. He waved a dozen boxes of beautifully packaged gift boxes and opened one of them. There is a necklace in it. He asked the ladies present to try it on and said that everyone had it. The man brought it back to his wife. Everyone was shocked by his generosity and said it was too expensive to accept. Unexpectedly, the Vietnamese got angry and said loudly, "Do you look down on me? I finally met my hometown people. I am rich in doing business in Vietnam. If my father knew that he had met his hometown people, he wouldn't spare me if he didn't treat me warmly and give me gifts. " Everyone was moved by his passion, but some people realized that there was a problem, so some people blinked and others got up and left. The Vietnamese couldn't stop him. He looked angry. Five or six people, including me, were taken by that man's emotional contagion. It's really hard to save his face, so I have to stay and accept his gift. We sat for a while, and the Vietnamese said, "When will you leave Vietnam?" We said that we would stay for a few days and visit Hanoi. He said, "Let me know when you leave, and I'll see you out. Otherwise, you can't go out because you have valuables, so you can't go through customs. I have acquaintances at the customs and only need 330 yuan customs clearance fee. " We were deeply immersed in the atmosphere at that time. Everyone took out 330 yuan, left the address of the Vietnamese man and left.

When we came out, we met other team members. When we talked about it, we felt cheated. We hurried back to the house, but it was empty.

In hindsight, how can there be so many coincidences in this matter? We must be taken to his home, and he must be a fellow villager with us. His relatives must be the deputy director someone knows. Why did he give us a gift? It turned out that the gift was fake. We didn't know there was a customs clearance fee. Vietnamese men's eyes, movements and performances are impeccable. All this is a routine.

Have you ever experienced such a thing?

There are so many scams about travel that people can't prevent them. When travel agencies and tour guides lie to you, you think his reasons are reasonable, but you don't know that you have been trapped by them and lead you into their trap step by step. In this way, you spent money in a daze.

Because many travel agencies have different commissions for each scenic spot. So the tour guide always takes you to other scenic spots. Remember, the tour guide will take you to that scenic spot with a high commission. Second, shopping. Shopping buys products that are several times higher than the normal price. Another one is eating. The guide took you to that restaurant and got high marks. After eating and drinking, the waiter counts the number of people, writes down the license plate of the tour guide, and then transfers the commission to their accounts.

Do you think these behaviors of tour guides are reasonable? So being cheated is normal and hard to prevent.

There are countless travel traps. Come with me and see which aspects will be trapped.

Fake specialty

Some merchants always cheat tourists with low-quality products in the name of specialty products. It is recommended to be cautious when shopping in scenic spots.

Shanzhai scenic spot

Some scenic spots often have no ornamental value, and deceive tourists by exaggerating propaganda, cooperating with black tour guides and black drivers to attract tourists.

Buy and sell with all kinds of tricks.

There are various versions of this kind. I suggest not to be greedy for petty gains, such as giving people away and giving them low discounts. Avoid being fooled.

Count divination, donate merit

This category mainly asks for money by various means near religious places.

Charge for taking pictures

In this case, you should wave your hand and refuse, and don't strike up a conversation easily.

Gambling game

Be sure to stay away from this, don't be greedy and cheap.

Travel is for entertainment and happiness. First of all, it is best to pay attention to your homework before you leave, and choose a travel agency with good qualifications, good reputation and few complaints. To avoid being tempted by low-priced groups, we must not determine the price as the only factor and be fooled by low-priced groups. It is necessary to sign a travel contract cautiously, and be optimistic about the terms and related services, including itinerary, accommodation standards, transportation, and self-funded projects. Shop reasonably and know what you really need. In addition, it is necessary to keep evidence of rights protection, understand the name of the land agency, the qualification of tour guides, and the retention of audio and video recordings during compulsory consumption.

If the rights and interests are damaged, don't conflict with local businesses, and complain to local tourism bureaus and consumer associations in time.

I don't know if you are satisfied with my answer. I hope I can help you. I wish you a happy work, study and journey!

First of all, when signing up for a tour group, watch the itinerary carefully! During the trip, it was said that there was no extra money during the day. These are invisible words. I can't say anything if I add more money at my own expense at night.

Secondly, the itinerary is vague, such as going to Lijiang by boat, whether it is the big Lijiang River or the small Lijiang River, the difference between the two is hundreds! Even a bamboo raft tour of Lijiang River for 20 minutes!

There are museums, experience halls and art in this and that itinerary, and all specialty supermarkets are hidden stores.

Drivers guide cars, take you to dinner, and get kickbacks for shopping! Let me put it this way! No matter what you need, as long as they take you, half of the money you spend goes into their pockets! Not long ago, a driver who has worked with me for many years was talking about buying tea in Hangzhou West Lake. He stopped at a shop that cooks group meals and sells tea. He winked and added the owner's WeChat. I just want to know if my friend for many years is honest. I secretly added the owner's WeChat! As soon as he chatted, the shopkeeper gave him five cents back, and he had hundreds of pockets. ...

In short, tourist pits are hard to prevent, so if you want to experience high and the time of sightseeing at scenic spots is real, you must set a high standard group and don't save money when signing up. It costs more to come back than a pure tour. ...

Many people join the low-cost tour and come back to find that the tour guide did not force them to buy things, but was complacent! In fact, that's because a few rich people in this group blocked the deficit in the group! So the tour guide will accept it as soon as possible! The problem is that most people who take part in low-cost tours are either poor, hob meat or chicken thieves as Beijing dialect often says. Rich people are generally reluctant to associate with these people. The result is that everyone is waiting for others to spend money and not buy it, and the tour guide will yell! As for the tourism bureau, this matter has long been known! To run a travel agency, you need to pay a quality deposit to the Tourism Bureau. As long as the travel agency exists, the money is in the account of the management department! No one participated in the high-priced group, and the company closed down after a long time! China people are greedy for cheap, as long as they are cheap! This is the reason why low-priced groups emerge one after another! Tourism is a luxury, and the poor also want to go out and have a look. What did you say?/Sorry?

Remember that tour guides are also in business, and people will definitely want to make money from you! If you want to buy something, you must first have a bottom line. If you exceed it, you will never buy it. Don't be confused.

Regarding the pit with the group, I suggest you sign up for a group that is purely fun and has no self-funded expenses. This is also a small pit before departure. If the map is cheap, any voluntary shopping is at your own expense, and the cost of spending it back is more expensive than pure play, and the experience is not good. Now the tour group has reached a morbid state. Everyone thinks that the normal tour fee is expensive and the sales are not good. Only tour groups with special prices are hot! Hot! It's hot again When will this phenomenon end? As a tourist, I really don't want to travel like this, but you can't live without it.

In order to borrow money, corrupt officials even turned their families into monks, working in Qingyang Palace to cheat money during the day and going home at night to be vulgar and happy.
