    Madrid ...3 teenage girls kept stepping in front of me as I was trying to step onto the Metro ... I quickly looked down at my little crossbody purse and I saw the HAND trying to unzip it ... I screamed .... PICKPOCKET ... and they vanished into thin air. Everyone on that car apologized to me!
    I was their target because I was wearing sunglasses and they thought that I could not see well underground... but my sunglasses were prescription and I saw it all clearly.

      we had a similar thing happen, in Madrid, I had my backpack on and felt a tug, someone trying to open the zippers, I turned right around and said, can I help you...we stopped and I put locks on my zippers

    I was on a Princess Cruise before Covid and in Mexico buying a silver bracelet. The shop keeper told me the credit transaction was in pesos. He tried billing it in US dollars. My credit card company gave me full credit for the overcharge.

    These scammers make us so wary of honest people. We want to believe that everyone is honest, and they play on those "wants". Even though some of your reminders are "common sense", or should be, being reminded is a good thing, especially for those on vacation, who want to enjoy the sights, and are not "thinking". A reminder doesn't cost, but could save much. THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

    • @electrictroy2010

      @edday1129 BETTER to assume everyone is dishonest, especially when it comes to money (greed). Makes it harder to get ripped off

    I ran a marathon in New Orleans in 2019 and took the trip down there by myself. Spent some time on Bourbon St and got scammed by a shoe-shiner. Found out later that this is a really common one down there. He said he liked my shoes and “bet I know where you got them.” He said if he guessed wrong that I would get a free shoe shine. I let him shine my shoes and then when I asked him where I got them, he said “on your feet on Bourbon St.” And then he said “that will be $20 for the lesson and $20 for the shine.” What was I supposed to do at that point, especially being alone. He said “if anyone else approaches you, tell them I already got you.” I learned my lesson that day for sure!
