Avoid This Man! Cairo Market Scam 🇪🇬 عملية احتيال بازار القاهرة

  • เผยแพร่เมื่อ 17 ธ.ค. 2024
  • As soon as I had got out the taxi I was approached by a friendly man offering to show me the way to the market.
    Which makes me think, maybe the taxi driver was in on it and had somehow texted this guy to let him know I was coming and to meet me on my way there. Maybe that's just a speculation, but look how fast he found me.
    Avoid this man whilst you are in the area and avoid falling for similar scams!
    If you wan't to support this channel and help me create more epic videos, Please head over to my patreon page that I just created.
    Only with your guys help can we carry on and grow into something truly beautiful.

    My first rule when travelling abroad is, 'never trust in someone who approach to you first'

      There is one exception...the Taxi Drivers at Siem Reap Airport. I didn't trust the driver and he wanted to sell me a temple tour even before he brought me to the hotel. And he realized that I don't trust him, so he showed a license and told me to check it online. I did and it seemed legit. So I booked the temple tour with him after he brought me to the hotel. He was such a genuine and honest guy, he even brought me to his hometown so I can eat some snake after I asked him questions about where to eat snake in Cambodia on the temple tour.

      Definitely, never ever trust anyone who approaches you out of the blue in a foreign country. Like the guy above said there are some exception but 99.99% of the time they are in for the money.

    I was in Egypt. An Egyptian guest house manager summed it up well. He said, "A guy in the street will point to the sky and then tell you to give him baksheesh. They will say that for everything." It is ridiculous. They want money for doing the most unsolicited worthless services and won't leave you alone. They walk with you or chase you with their horse carriage no matter how much you tell them no or ignore them (I tried both strategies). If you go left they tell you to go right to follow them somewhere. If you go start to go right, they tell you to go left and to follow them. Then they say they are friendly and you are not but really they are just scammers.

As I came close to take a look, around three guys working at that store all came towards me, and surrounded me, showing me boards full of bracelets, talking really fast and loud, invading my personal space and putting their boards and bracelets inches away from my face.
      As a result, they annoyed me and stressed me out and I told them to leave me alone and left. If they hadn't done that, I would have probably bought from them. It was them who pushed me away from their own store. I think these guys would sell more if they gave tourists more space.

    This is an extremely stressful situation and can ruin your day. The worst experience I had of this kind was in Marrakech. One street hawker approached me and my friend and offered to take us on a "tour" of the city at a "very competitive price". We declined the offer in a polite and respectful manner but he continued to follow us for at least half an hour, pushing in to our faces and becoming increasingly aggressive. So we decided to visit a roof-top cafe for an hour to try to shake him off. When we got back on to the street, yes, of course, he was waiting for us. After another half an hour of this he finally gave up when we approached a group of young men in a market and they shooed him off.

      I found that very annoying for people in different countries. Once I was in Tunisia and shop sellers were so annoying towards Tourists. I talked a shop owner and told him that may be he would sell much more if he left the tourists in peace visiting his shop. He never had considered that.
      But unfortunately this "pressing sale" comes also the Western countries. When you want to buy a mobile, people want to pressure to change your phone provider, when you want to buy a fridge, sellers want you to change your energy provider... Annoying, annoying, annoying.

      exactly, my hotel even had it's own taxi company (of course free of charge for anybody accomodated at their hotel) because they know tourists have big problems with the local taxis. They told us we can take any taxi we like but they don't guarantee the experience and who knows what price they're gonna ask for. So when we went out to the city we took out hotel taxi but when we wanted to get back, there were no taxis from our hotels aroud at that moment so we took a local taxi to get back. We asked how much will the ride cost, he told us the price. When we arrived he doubled the price.

    Egypt would have been better if the scamming and treating tourist poorly was stopped. I felt so unsafe and frustrated the entire time I was there. Can easily say this is the worst trip I've been on with respect to how I felt the entire time. The country has beautiful sites to see but what the locals fail to realize is when they treat tourists like a walking piggy bank and treat you poorly, you'd never want to go there again. I'm glad I went but I didn't enjoy this trip as much as I could have.
