I really don't like putting out negative videos but it's sometimes the harsh reality of traveling. This happens not only in Sri Lanka but in many countries sadly enough.
You are always negative .Not only in Sri lanka but also every country in this world ..Sri lanka is very safe than USA people not killed on the roads no weapon used public but you are always publish negative video
Hi Tim, first as a Sri Lankan I convey my sincere appolagies for that scammers behaviour. Im from Kalutara and this man is known to cause trouble to every one. Loitering in the town hunting the innocent. Regarding the boats with Belgium Logo, these were donated by a Belgium charity soon after the Tsunami as a helping project to the Sri lankan fishermen who lost their boats. Keep exploring 🇱🇰 there are good people. . . ❤❤❤

hello, the kind of scammers are also in Europe. I was cheated by some italians in Rome two years ago. But i am glad lanken police acted against the scammer within 2 days.. is that not fantastic ? I am proud o four systems turning better gradually.
Hi Tim, your action will open the eyes of other scammers. Some gem merchants hv become millionaire over a short period bcoz an ordinary person not aware of the actual price. These are the few guys who bring disrepute to the country. Hope your stay in the country will be a good experience. Good luck.
its pretty foolish not to expect a little exploitation when trading in countries with a low value money system - especially at this level of transaction
We apologize for what occurred to you; our government has taken appropriate action. If you hadn't released this video, nobody would have known what had transpired. This is a lesson for all including the shopkeeper.
This man has already been arrested by the police in Sri Lanka, and he and the real sellers of this shop are being prosecuted and taken into court. Thank you so much for sharing this video.👍It will not be easy for them in court.🤗
@@deepaksah1733 check Sri lankan news.He arrested already.If you doesn't know better be quite.Bcz after that you will be shame on you.And we don't talk about india and indian foods😂 delicious indian street food 🤮
I concur wth thsi comment Tim. That lady was a decent human being. She said she was selling her wares for the Church, not that is a good Christian lady. That other bloody clown was not only a scammer but a *HYPOCRITE* IT was a JOKE when he put his hands together and asked yo for a ride to the TEMPLE as he wanted to pray. WHAT A BLOODY JOKE!
@Quotes77dreams even If We ask the price they tell the wrong price . Even In colombo We had lots of bad experience . It is all about the honesty and the principals . Eventhough We can see in many sri lankan people how they would comment on the posts and videos mostly do not know community standard and use the bad words remind by our parents .
As a SriLankan, I apologize for the incident you faced during your visit. Further to your attention I would like to inform you that the SriLankan government has taken swift action against the person who is in the video. We invite you to visit the country again and explore the country. Thanks

First of all As a Sri lankan, i really apologize for this incident that you faced. Definitely Sri Lankan government has take action against that sales person. Sorry for inconvenience. Please visit us again. Thank you sir.
Yeah, I respect this man,As a Sri Lankan,I’m so ashamed of this kind of act.This is not actually negative video.This is a great lesson for the scammers… Good Work brooh,I really appreciate it❤
I’m so sorry this happened to you Tim you are a nice person - have been watching for a while - don’t let this deter you - love your videos thanks for being real 😊
I'm sorry that you encountered fraud again, because you are so kind! The bad guy saw that you were shooting and still defrauded you, which shows that he is really bad! You left too quickly. You should ask the two local ladies to tell him that you want to call the police. Maybe he won't take the money! You also forgot to explain the whole incident clearly to the two ladies. I feel like they must have been helpless! I understand that you must have been very angry at the time, but sometimes you can completely protect yourself by being calm! This episode makes people understand that although language is just a tool for communication, in a foreign country, this tool is very important! Not only does that beautiful lady have a sweet smile, but she also has a sweet heart, and she wants to make up the difference by giving you coconut cake! Congratulations on finding your first official tuk tuk customer, you can start a public transportation company in Sri Lanka, haha! This is still a very positive episode. Thank you very much for sharing how you were defrauded and the trip of the local happy lady. Well done! 👍🤩👏
Hello, I'm a Sri-Lankan, but lives in Europe. You are a very patient and careful person. Always solve the conflicts with a positive smile. I'm surprised with that good quality.

SO BE CAREFUL WHEN DEALING WITH PEOPLE. Wish you good luck for your journey..! 👍💐
@@TOM-ym1uh this scammer was arrested by police on 20th April 2024. Police acted upon social media reports. Sad to hear you also faced lot of scammers. At least now these scammers get punished.
Hi Tim. A similar incident was experienced in Colombo, a couple of days ago by a visitor from the US. I read in the papers today that the particular sales person was arrested. You are doing a good thing by highlighting these crooks. Just a very few among good people in this country who are so helpful & kind to foreign visitors!
Luckily we didn't meet anyone like this during our trip to Sri Lanka! Shameless behaviour charging like 10x the price, just ruining their country's image!
Ha haa... 😅😅 . "Soon, you will also meet .. however, there is no need to worry, as it will be an unusual experience. The world will reveal itself. It is essential to recognize that both good and bad individuals exist in every nation." also enjoy with your videos, these days crush..!
Indeed. Luckily for us, there aren't too many of this kind at the bottom end of the social ladder. However, at the middle and top end of the social ladder, there are so many of them, who are about to be exterminated via a social political revolution. After that, we won't be seeing many videos like this.
Im a sri lankan living in UK. I watched few of your videos. Its amazing how generous you are when you realise thet the people are innocent and genuine. I can understand your anger and frustration with that man in the restaurant who was trying to scam you. I hope he learnt a lesson from you and won't do it to someone else. I like your positivity and kind nature, will be watching more of your videos. Keep up the good work and be careful from scammers.😊😊
Thanks for doing this bro. Really appreciate it. People like them bring shame to all of us Sri Lankans. BTW thanks for coming. Enjoy your trip. Cheers!!
Hi Tim, Congratulations! You are in the local newspaper. The scammer who sold the wadeyi has been taken into custody now. Thank you very much for sharing this video. We have to clear Sri Lanka of this kind of scammers.
Expose who ?? A poor shop ?? Hahahahahah yeah big exposure !!! Making a poor guys more Miserable …. Why not to aim To big guys with full pockets of corruption ??
@@destuers A poor shop should be allowed to scam tourists, you mean? Whoever does it, it is wrong. It affects the country as a whole. His channel is not dedicated to exposing corruption, it is a travel vlog. One should have common sense to understand it first. Typical mentality. If you are worried about corruption by big guys, why don't you expose them yourself if you know who these corrupted big guys are?
By the way , I make a wrong comment . Is not a poor shop , it’s a survivor ( ask that shop how he manage to face the corruption cases that affect the whole country ( u talking about afeecting that survivor behaviour the whole country ( how dumb excuse me ) + Covid + fuel and gas crisis …. That guy if he made it through and push his business to be alive is a fucking genious !! Keeping eating white ass hahahaah

The reason that country names and places are on the side of boats and catamarans is that they are the places that donated money to pay for them following the 2004 Tsunami.

Something i learned while traveling abroad, especially through Asia, whenever you have a conflict like this, contact the local authorities and your Embassy immediately . And with the footage you have, the business owner would be in deep 💩.
The rogue vendor has been arrested over the incident Tim. This should be a good lesson to all dishonest people trying to extort money from tourists. Hopefully similar incidents in future should drastically diminish due to timely action taken by the authorities. Thank you for highlighting the incident. මේ හොර වෙලෙන්දා ඉහත සිද්ධිය මත අත් අඩංගුවට ගැනීම ප්රශංසාවට ලක්විය යුතුයි .......!
Tim, for anyone to be scammed is not at all a good experience. Hope this is a learning experience for the guy. Hope you travel safe and wishing you and everyone in Sri Lanka all the very best 🇨🇦❤️👍🎉🥰🇱🇰
Well when I'm traveling in south asia I gotta get ready for scammers too lol. Sri Lanka had lesser scammers though. But still there were some. The best thing you can do is humiliate them in front of a large crowd. Good job mate
Bro..Very sad about it😢😢 Don't give money to unknown people Advice : If u want to buy things , just go to famous shopss..Like P&S , Cargills foodcity , keells❤❤❤
I watched more of your videos and noticed your superior human qualities compared to many people. We Sri Lankans condemn the behavior of such individuals with disgust. We kindly request you not to be influenced by these people from now on and to enjoy the beauty of our country. You are a good person, and I could see that in your videos.
The Tourist Police would be happy to assist you. Itchy Boots, a tourist from Netherlands posted a video of a cop demanding money (not in Sri Lanka) and those cops on duty were fired
I am very sorry for what has happened to that person You have been charged a lot for that We request the government to enforce the law on individuals......We as a country want you to come here and welcome you. Thank you very much for making such a video. Also, thank you for informing everyone about this person through TH-cam. If anyone has information about this person, please let me know immediately.sri lanka we all love you Always ask the price before buying..
Bro I'm Sri Lankan... It's really hard to watch this. If only I was there... Too bad you get to experience such shit in that wonderful island. Afterall everything comes with good & bad. Enjoy the rest of your journey. Cheers!🥂
Apologies for the unpleasant experience. That cunning guy is unemployed and on the blacklist of tour guides; I'm from Kalutara too. Due to the foreign customers they bring, only a select few restaurants-mostly the least well-liked ones-allow them to remain open. Keep an eye out for them. Deal only with (well-groomed) sincere-looking individuals. By the way, you are driving too fast.
It was not negative at all. It actually require some balls to do what you did. I can see it was way out of your comfort zone most foreigners would have just walked away but what you did must have taught this guy a big lesson and he will think 100 times before doing it to some other foreigner. Keep up the good work bro.

Bro he is being arrested by sri lankan police he is actually a tuk tuk driver he is not even the owner of the shop anyways he is being arrested by police 😊😊
Haha! Tim Tense you look tense!!! I can understand it is not about the money, still it is way to much. Even in Malaysia, a piece of vadai costs only RM1 to RM1.50, Damn! the exchange rate is RM1 is 63 LKR. Haha! More like extra Fine Dining vadai price. 800 lLKR can buy how many vadai in Malaysia
How could I not be Tense 😅 I just arrive in a new city, park my tuktuk and get scammed on arrival. I really didn't expect this in Kalutara as it's not really a touristy city.
Hi Tim! First and foremost thank you for bringing this incident upto this extent, least now our SL government will see the real state and the consequences of having such a poor managemnt stratergy within this country's financial controls they have in all trades. Also not to mention the poor controle they have upon prices and retail rates not only for forigners even for locals. Arresting this man for this incident is not the solution but planing out to avoid such situations is what we need to focus on, that will happen if we have better policy and management professionals in the ares which is what we lack in our country. Finally, I wholeheartedly appologize as a Sri Lankan citizen for what you went through and I also would like to request you not to judge our country's level of warm hospitality from this incident as we have much much more for you to discover. This is just a bit I wanted to say as a random citizen with much love for this beautiful country and people. Peace!
Not all Sri Lankan people are like that, Sri Lanka is a country with many good people, but like in every country there are these kind of crooks. We must be careful not to fall for scammers
Dear Tim, I am really sorry about your experience at that restaurant. I also live in Kalutara city. I have also got food from the same shop where you ate. But that person who guided you is not the owner of that shop, he is an employee of that shop. It is very unfortunate that you were charged more for the food you received. Some people (small percentage) commit such unjust acts. But majority Sri Lankans are not like that. Most people are good & very hospitable people. I think you have experienced it too. However, enjoy the beauty of Sri Lanka. This is a very beautiful place. I am also a fan of your videos. Thank you for showing the beauty of Sri Lanka to the world through your yt channel. 🤟💐
Allee, volgens wat ik hier bij mij thuis lees in de locale media hebben ze de uitbater opgepakt. En dat allemaal vanwege uw filmpje. Proficiat! Voor iemand die een smak geld uitgeeft aan een wereldreis maakt 3€ natuurlijk het verschil. Ge moest beschaamd zijn man!

Luckily we didn't meet anyone like this during our trip to Sri Lanka!
Shameless behaviour charging like 10x the price, just ruining their country's image!
Ha haa... 😅😅 . "Soon, you will also meet .. however, there is no need to worry, as it will be an unusual experience. The world will reveal itself. It is essential to recognize that both good and bad individuals exist in every nation."
also enjoy with your videos, these days crush..!
Indeed. Luckily for us, there aren't too many of this kind at the bottom end of the social ladder. However, at the middle and top end of the social ladder, there are so many of them, who are about to be exterminated via a social political revolution. After that, we won't be seeing many videos like this.
Sorry man! He is one of bad Parsons. Most of srilankan are nice.❤👍🏾
Hi..Tim u did a great job.it's a very good lesson for people like this .keep it uo
Hey bro... this is great that you did this. This man has been arrested... I'm in srilanka now after watching your videos.... enjoy your trip brother
Im a sri lankan living in UK. I watched few of your videos. Its amazing how generous you are when you realise thet the people are innocent and genuine. I can understand your anger and frustration with that man in the restaurant who was trying to scam you. I hope he learnt a lesson from you and won't do it to someone else. I like your positivity and kind nature, will be watching more of your videos. Keep up the good work and be careful from scammers.😊😊
Thanks for your kind words. I appreciate it!
Thanks for doing this bro. Really appreciate it. People like them bring shame to all of us Sri Lankans. BTW thanks for coming. Enjoy your trip. Cheers!!
I aim Tamil even when we were fighting with government if any one make bad name for my country l hate .
Black tea is 50/-
Ulundu wadei is 100/- . I'm really proud of you that you felt that you were scammed by that ugly rogues.
Ulundu wade is 100? Bruhhh wtfff. It's only 50 in my area. And they also give Lunu miris
Hi Tim,
Congratulations! You are in the local newspaper. The scammer who sold the wadeyi has been taken into custody now. Thank you very much for sharing this video. We have to clear Sri Lanka of this kind of scammers.
You are on Sri Lankan News these days, Tim. Good you have exposed them.
Expose who ?? A poor shop ?? Hahahahahah yeah big exposure !!! Making a poor guys more
Miserable …. Why not to aim
To big guys with full pockets of corruption ??
@@destuers A poor shop should be allowed to scam tourists, you mean? Whoever does it, it is wrong. It affects the country as a whole. His channel is not dedicated to exposing corruption, it is a travel vlog. One should have common sense to understand it first. Typical mentality. If you are worried about corruption by big guys, why don't you expose them yourself if you know who these corrupted big guys are?
By the way , I make a wrong comment . Is not a poor shop , it’s a survivor ( ask that shop how he manage to face the corruption cases that affect the whole country ( u talking about afeecting that survivor behaviour the whole country ( how dumb excuse me ) + Covid + fuel and gas crisis …. That guy if he made it through and push his business to be alive is a fucking genious !! Keeping eating white ass hahahaah
The way you tackled this is next level. What a legend!

@Tim Tense Thank you for comming this country. we are shame about this kind of people. this kind of people live in this country. they are small group.But most people are very friendly and good. be carefully and first you ask price before the get service or goods.
Thank you for exposing these scammers
Something i learned while traveling abroad, especially through Asia, whenever you have a conflict like this, contact the local authorities and your Embassy immediately . And with the footage you have, the business owner would be in deep 💩.

The rogue vendor has been arrested over the incident Tim.
This should be a good lesson to all dishonest people trying to extort money from tourists. Hopefully similar incidents in future should drastically diminish due to timely action taken by the authorities.
Thank you for highlighting the incident.

Tim, for anyone to be scammed is not at all a good experience. Hope this is a learning experience for the guy. Hope you travel safe and wishing you and everyone in Sri Lanka all the very best 🇨🇦❤️👍🎉🥰🇱🇰
Well when I'm traveling in south asia I gotta get ready for scammers too lol. Sri Lanka had lesser scammers though. But still there were some. The best thing you can do is humiliate them in front of a large crowd. Good job mate
Bro..Very sad about it😢😢
Don't give money to unknown people
Advice : If u want to buy things , just go to famous shopss..Like P&S , Cargills foodcity , keells❤❤❤
Fr
HELL YEAH 🗣🗣🔥🔥🔥🔥
If anyone try to scam. Directly go to police stations and do the complaint. This is good lessons for others also
I watched more of your videos and noticed your superior human qualities compared to many people. We Sri Lankans condemn the behavior of such individuals with disgust. We kindly request you not to be influenced by these people from now on and to enjoy the beauty of our country. You are a good person, and I could see that in your videos.
The Tourist Police would be happy to assist you. Itchy Boots, a tourist from Netherlands posted a video of a cop demanding money (not in Sri Lanka) and those cops on duty were fired

Apologies for the unpleasant experience. That cunning guy is unemployed and on the blacklist of tour guides; I'm from Kalutara too. Due to the foreign customers they bring, only a select few restaurants-mostly the least well-liked ones-allow them to remain open. Keep an eye out for them. Deal only with (well-groomed) sincere-looking individuals. By the way, you are driving too fast.
So beautiful!! I SUBSCRIBED!!! I hope to see ALL your videos!!!
It was not negative at all. It actually require some balls to do what you did. I can see it was way out of your comfort zone most foreigners would have just walked away but what you did must have taught this guy a big lesson and he will think 100 times before doing it to some other foreigner. Keep up the good work bro.
Great videos Tim!, keep it up!

Haha! Tim Tense you look tense!!! I can understand it is not about the money, still it is way to much. Even in Malaysia, a piece of vadai costs only RM1 to RM1.50, Damn! the exchange rate is RM1 is 63 LKR. Haha! More like extra Fine Dining vadai price. 800 lLKR can buy how many vadai in Malaysia
How could I not be Tense 😅 I just arrive in a new city, park my tuktuk and get scammed on arrival. I really didn't expect this in Kalutara as it's not really a touristy city.
Haha! you are look too nice, have to put on a stern face
Hi Tim! First and foremost thank you for bringing this incident upto this extent, least now our SL government will see the real state and the consequences of having such a poor managemnt stratergy within this country's financial controls they have in all trades. Also not to mention the poor controle they have upon prices and retail rates not only for forigners even for locals. Arresting this man for this incident is not the solution but planing out to avoid such situations is what we need to focus on, that will happen if we have better policy and management professionals in the ares which is what we lack in our country.
Finally, I wholeheartedly appologize as a Sri Lankan citizen for what you went through and I also would like to request you not to judge our country's level of warm hospitality from this incident as we have much much more for you to discover.
This is just a bit I wanted to say as a random citizen with much love for this beautiful country and people. Peace!
Good that u have recorded and show these kind of people.
There are few guys like this in Kalutara, try to catch foreigners and scammed them.
Honestly they are ruining the Sri Lankan Tourist Industry.

Dear Tim, I am really sorry about your experience at that restaurant. I also live in Kalutara city. I have also got food from the same shop where you ate. But that person who guided you is not the owner of that shop, he is an employee of that shop. It is very unfortunate that you were charged more for the food you received. Some people (small percentage) commit such unjust acts. But majority Sri Lankans are not like that. Most people are good & very hospitable people. I think you have experienced it too. However, enjoy the beauty of Sri Lanka. This is a very beautiful place. I am also a fan of your videos. Thank you for showing the beauty of Sri Lanka to the world through your yt channel. 🤟💐
When are you going to visit the Philippines??? You are always welcome here
He was arrested today alone with owner of the shop.
