ITALY Doesn’t deserve tourists! Scams to AVOID!
#italyscams #italytourism #popularscamsinitaly
scams are very common in italy and here are few
1. The fake car crash scam
Not a very common occurence, but there are still occasional reports of incidents.
The situation usually involves people in older cars or on scooters, who would purposefully cause accidents, or pull over to the side of the road and claim a driver had hit them.
As with any traffic accident, you should call the authorities and follow proper procedure - scammers will usually change their mind when they know the police are coming.
2. The gypsy pizza scam
The Italian kids are in on the rogue behavior, too. Travelers tell tales about packs of cute gypsy girls who come up to you – while one holds a pizza box in front of you, you can't look below your waist while the other lifts your wallet.
They may also use newspapers or cardboard sheets instead of pizza boxes.
3. A scam on the sly
Some scamming is a little more understated. From time to time, travelers report they were overcharged or short-changed on the price of entry. Any museum or historical or cultural spot will usually have prices listed, so make sure to check.
The same can happen in regular stores when you go to purchase small items. Stores are required by law to issue receipts, so ask for one if it's not immediately offered to you.
4. The hotel upgrade scam
Not as common as it once was (because now everyone has access to AirBnB and online hotel booking), but If you encounter hotel staff at transport hubs who are offering good deals on accommodation, check the style and quality of the room fits their description before handing over any money.
5. Fashion heist
Others criminals will roam tourist spots, such as the Colosseum or Circus Maximus in Rome, and ask for directions.
Often targeting women, they'll start a conversation, then say they work for a fashion house and offer a pricey coat.
If you take the bait and try to take the coat from inside the car, the guy will ask for 200 euros for gas.
Thieves in Naples gather round the main train station and the Piazza Garibaldi, pretending to offer images of old Napoli or souvenirs.
These things are not free – if you take them, they'll harass you for money.
6. Tax police scam
This potential event can prove tricky, because while it's legit, many con-artists try to copy it.
The tax police, called Guardia di Finanza, may ask you to produce receipts after leaving a restaurant. They approach you more to make sure the establishment owner recorded the transaction for tax purposes.
These individuals are often in uniform, but they sometimes dress in plain clothes, which makes it hard to know if they are the real deal.
If you're worried, ask for the badge number, and if still leery, call the 113 emergency number and request a police officer in uniform.
7. Rest stop scam
Rest stops along the toll highways are another place where scammers operate. A group of men will set up a “game” that looks easy to win, and a crowd will gather - most of the crowd, of course, is in on the trick. Unsuspecting tourists see people winning easily, and quickly throw down their own 20 or 100 euro bills to play. Of course, they there is no chance they will win, with the scammers pocketing a nice kitty of euros.

Pickpocketing Epidemic of 2023 in Rome Italy- My Best Video Yet!
Please share this video to help get the word out about the growing problem of pickpocketing in Rome. Over 1000 wallets, purses and suitcases are being stolen in Rome on a busy day and not much is being dome to stop it. Learn about our story and how you can be protected from this happening to you the next time you are in Rome. Rome is an incredible city but you need to know before you go.
Replacing passport took about 3 hours and cost 120 euro. US Embassy is open Monday through Friday starting at 8:30am. Get there early the line builds fast. A few additional tips. If driving a car do not leave bags or anything in the car or you may find your windows smashed and what was in the car gone. Also when eating it is a good idea to put you foot through your bag or pack handles when placing on the ground so nobody can grab it. Also if you foot is in the handle you will not forget it under the table. Do not put your bag on an empty chair when in high traffic tourist areas or someone may grab it and run. Stay safe and please share my video.
Also online I read that the first step is to report the crime to the police. I found this not possible. The police would not file a report unless I had a passport which made no sense to me since my passport was stollen. Well the good news is the US embassy is well staffed to help you and they process lots of stolen passports everyday.

We travel with a Microsoft Surface everywhere we go. I edit my videos on it & use it to backup my pictures and vides while we travel. It’s light and the best travel laptop on the market in my opinion.

We use Manfrotto Tripods. They are compact, travel well, and honestly I would not use another tripod for my nice cameras.
Travel Plug that works in pretty much any country & has four USB ports. A must for any traveler.
