Exposing India's Begging Scams (Beware!)

Have you come across these begging scams? Not all beggars are genuine; I expose 3 fake beggars in this video so you know what to avoid when you travel to India. The most common begging scams I've come across are the Ranipur calamity fake charity scam, fake medical bills scam, and fake donation collectors.

These scams can happen anywhere in India. Begging scammers commonly target tourist areas, busy intersections, expensive parts of cities, and railway stations. If you meet any of them, just say no and keep walking. Don't fall for their lies. These are professional beggars who are trying to trick you into donating money to a fake cause.

If you want to give to beggars, you need to verify their story. If approached by a beggar who claims to be in a dire situation, exercise caution. Ask questions and evaluate their responses. Genuine individuals in need might provide coherent and consistent explanations.

Trust your instincts too. If something feels suspicious or doesn't seem right, trust your gut instinct. It's better to err on the side of caution and refrain from engaging with potential scammers.

Spread awareness: Share information about begging scams with friends, family, and your community. Increasing awareness about these scams can help protect others from falling prey to fraudulent schemes.

Beggars in India will approach you all day long with a scam where they ask you to buy them expensive food items from a nearby supermarket. Find out exactly what they do with these items you give them and how you can really help people who really need charity in India.

Shot in Mumbai, this auntie and her entire family work the streets every day running this scam. During the scam, an Indian Nun came up to me to help me and stop me being scammed! She was terrific and demonstrates the lengths Indians will go to to help foreign guests in their country.

DO NOT GIVE HIM MONEY! ????????

Avoiding scammers, touts and hustlers is a big part of travelling in a touristic part of India. In Jaipur this is as true as anywhere in India.

After exploring the forts I tried to walk away from the tourist spot to visit the local side of Amer, hoping to see a more authentic side of the city away from scams and hassle. After making my way through annoying rickshaws, vendors trying to sell me cheap junk and a guy who tried to massively overcharge me on some snacks, I found myself in a local neighbourhood being guided by the local kids.

All was well until some big guy turned up and started demanding money from me. The kids had warned me about him so I was determined not give him any money. You can watch for yourself to see how that turned out.

Confronting an Indian SCAMMER (How to Buy REAL Cashmere)

I got sick of seeing people being scammed by scammers selling fake cashmere and pashminas in India so I went and got scammed to show you how to avoid it and how you can buy real cashmere! Then watch the scammer lie through his teeth that what he's selling is 100% pure cashmere from Keralan monkeys - unbelievable.

Cashmere or Kashmir is the most luxurious wool in the world. It's produced in the state of Jammu & Kashmir in India, hence the name. It comes from the neck region of cashmere goats who only shed once a year. It's known for being extremely thin yet warm. It's the most expensive type of wool in the world. But most small stores selling garments and handicrafts will sell you cheap silk or viscose at insane prices. They'll lie to you and tell you it's 100% pure cashmere or pashmina.

There are a few ways you can tell real cashmere. Firstly it looks like animal hair and not perfectly produced strands of wool. It's super light and warm compared to the fake products. And it always has a matt finish, it's never shiny like silk. Sometimes it is mixed with silk, but the label will tell you that if it's a cashmere silk blend.

At the end of the video, I go to confront the scammer and show you how to get a refund in India! It's no easy feat! They HATE giving refunds.

Why Foreigners Don't Trust Indians in India (Tourist Trap Scam)

Kerala's famous Chinese Fishing Nets are the site for a popular sympathy scam that's taking advantage of foreigners. The fishermen pretend to be friendly locals and invite you onto their fishing nets, only to ask you for a donation!

This is precisely why a lot of foreigners are worried about meeting Indians on the street in India. They've had too many bad experiences with scammers who they thought were friendly locals. Scammers in India see foreigners as walking ATMs that they can manipulate into giving a lot of money.

Travel safely and confidently in India with my Quick-Start Safety Guide at

In some cases of this fishing net scam, the fisherman will take your photo and then not give your camera back until you pay them enough money. Many foreigners have been caught up by this scam.

It's a misconception that scams aren't taking place in South India. In most cases, local Indians have no idea these scams exist because they don't frequent their city's tourist attractions and aren't targeted by scammers.

Avoid These Guys in India 2 (Don't Be Scammed by Travel Agents in India!)

Avoid these Indian scammers at all costs! These travel agents you'll meet on the streets of India will lie to you, overcharge you, promise the world and deliver very little - if anything. They'll scam you out of your money! The list of online complaints against Indian travel agents goes on and on. And if you complain, they'll yell at you, and it's already too late because there's no such thing as refunds in India.

Just look at this scammer's store's name, Department of Tourism. He's trying to trick foreigners into thinking that he's affiliated with the Government of India. But the truth is the Government of India's Tourism Office near Connaught Place only offers FREE ADVICE. The Real IndiaTourism office is or search IndiaTourism DELHI on Google Maps.

To book travel in India, please use popular online travel portals or reputable travel agents which you have researched and read reviews about online. Never trust anyone on the street in India - especially if the conversation turns to money and how they can help you. New Delhi is littered with hustlers who'll take you to whatever travel agent will pay them the most commission - not the best travel agency who'll provide you with a pleasant experience.

Fake train and flight tickets are prevalent here in India too. Because of the way Connaught Place is designed, in a HUGE circle, you're unlikely even to remember where the travel agency that sold you the fake tickets is located. It's a very disorientating place. Plus there's no such thing as a refund in India and these travel agents are dangerous goons.

Avoid this tourist SCAM in Colombo, Sri Lanka. ????????

When travelling in Sri Lanka as a foreigner you'll no doubt be approached by men who try to appear as friendly citizens. They will attempt to coax you to somewhere, such as a beautiful temple that you must go and see. Watch as this man follows me through the streets, desperately trying to convince me to go see the (fake) Tsunami Temple, despite me showing zero interest in it.

These scammers and their cheap tricks are not representative of the genuine good people of Sri Lanka. Unfortunately, as foreigner, they will be seeking you out so it would be easy to think that every local is bad when in fact it's a very small number of bad people.

Rickshaw Scam | First Day Back In India!

I had just flown back to India to celebrate reaching 50,000 subs but I was soon reminded that in Delhi you can never relax with rickshaw drivers! Fortunately I was experienced enough to know what was happening. Please never let a rickshaw driver take you to a 'Government tourist office'. It's a scam!

Avoid These Scammers At The Pyramids! ????????

90 Percent of the time I spent at the Pyramids was not spent enjoying the scenery, however It was spent chasing off the scammers and sales people.
It is a shame that the Egyptian government doesn't do something about it.
Apparently there are signs with set prices for camel rides (50 Egyptian Pounds for 30 minutes).
It leaves a bitter taste in the mouthes of tourists and really lowers the quality of the experience.
An Average hard working person in Egypt earns approximately 30-40 Egyptian Pounds for a full days work.
The 2 guys wanted about 700 Egyptian pounds for an hour camel ride which always ends up being about 30minutes. Thats a months salary in Egypt.
Unfortunately it is not only the Giza Necropolis that is like this.
Now Keep in mind it is not that I had a problem with paying 40 dollars for an hours camel ride, it is that their attitudes stank and their goal was to trick you and connive you.
Eventually I agreed to a rushed 5 minute ride for 150 egyptian pounds.

More Scammers Find Me in India!

I bumped into someone from one of my scam videos while out filming another video! India isn't as big as we think. He's angry at me because I made a video about his Burger Club restaurant chain ripping off the New Zealand burger chain BurgerFuel. See the video Counterfeit Burgers in India (BurgerFuel vs. Burger Club)

And this isn't the first time I've run into trouble from the videos I make - see Scammers CAUGHT ME Filming in India ????

They've also been featured in the news 'A Kiwi make over': Indian burger chain copies NZ's own BurgerFuel

Can You Trust Friendly Locals in India? (Guilt Trip Scam)

Remember, nothing is free on the streets of India. When someone is pretending to be your friend and show you around at tourist site, 9 out of 10 times it's an undercover tour guide tricking you into thinking he's just a friendly local. Truth is, this interaction is going to end with them guilt-tripping you into giving them money because they've provided you with a service - one you didn't ask for!

Indian hospitality and Guest is God is world-famous. But you might not know that many tourists are trusting the wrong people and end up with beggars and cheats. Not genuine people.

This scam happens a lot in Delhi, Jaipur, Agra, and any tourist city in India. Local Indians probably have no idea that these touts are doing this to foreigners and wrecking foreigners perceptions of Indians. Such sales/begging tactics really affect foreign tourists trust of locals.

Indian Police CAUGHT Actually Doing Work for Tourists! (& EPIC TOUT TROLL)

I returned to India's Scam Fort to troll some touts and capture all the scams happening there, but instead, I caught the Indian Police actually doing their job!

This is the first time I've ever encountered the Indian Police actually doing work for tourists and keeping Amber Fort free from touts and scammers. Nick and I actually really enjoyed visiting the Fort without all the bad guys there - it was a totally different experience.

Unfortunately, they weren't doing their work the very same morning when my brother went with my family! Yup, he went twice in one day. I also returned to Amber Fort a month later to capture the scams... and I got em all! That's in another video.

If you want to visit Amber Fort and avoid the touts and scammers, definitely visit in the afternoon! In the morning it's Scam Fort.
