Rest in Vietnam &# 8211; Tips for tourists how to protect against fraudsters?
.
Immediately it is worth noting the fact that fraudsters in this country work without the use of force, and they are more often small and, so to speak, tolerant. You can buy some thing in exorbitant price for it, pay a few dollars for an unnecessary service, overpay in the restaurant and t.D. It is in an inexpensive Vietnam from a tourist who is trying to get extra money for non-existent services, and in ingenuity to local residents are difficult to refuse. Someone quickly understands that he was deceived, and someone to this day I am sure that I could visit Vietnam and not be in the role of the victim.
How not to become a victim of deception in Vietnam?
Going to rest to any country, be extremely careful &# 8211; You fall into an unfamiliar environment, do not know local customs and traditions, you can accidentally get into the area where local residents are afraid to care. So everywhere, Vietnam &# 8211; not an exception. Observe several rules:
- Of course, the main thing is to be attentive. Forewarned is forearmed;
- If you notice that you are deceived, you should not be silent and dishwashed: "Well, this is just a couple of dollars". Next time maybe more. As a rule, if the tourist noticed the deception and demands a refund, he is going to meet;
- The price must always be discussed in advance, as well as the services or the goods you will receive for this money. You can even write numbers on paper.
If you think that knowledge of English is enough to establish contact with sellers, you are waiting for disappointment &# 8211; Language barrier immediately arises from local traders, if you start demanding with them to pass it out or sniffed in deception. Although before this is quite nice talked, so my advice &# 8211; Do not give them large bills in the hands, divorced.
Most Popular Fraud in Vietnam
I repeatedly talked about the fact that Vietnamese &# 8211; The people are welcoming and hospitable, not inclined to pretend on travelers. Yes, it is so, but only in rural areas, at the tourist resorts there are reverse situations, so consider several nuances:

- Vietnamese are very loved in restaurants or agencies when paying a card to shoot without warning a commission for a transaction, so it’s worth paying the commission before paying, whether there is a commission. Its size can reach up to 10% of the payment amount.
- Also popular dual write-off of money from the card – follow SMS alerts!
- Do not take pictures with something on the street. If you make photos offer persistent locals – then you will have to pay for it. Even for the passage for some bridges, enterprising Vietnamese can collect money!
- Keep off the bills – they are often replaced, and it may well be that instead of 100,000 dongs they gave you a similar color bill at 10,000 and t.D.
- The price for travel with a velaikash and a taxi driver is also needed to stipulate in advance. If you are going to ask about it at the exit from the car, be prepared that you will call the amount for which you could get to Cambodia. Either make sure that the taxi driver has turned on the meter when landing.
- Parking money, public transport or for a visit to the toilet is better to give without surrender – you will most likely not give out, and they will say that the service is more expensive for foreigners.
- Be careful during excursions – often input tickets are already included in the price, but guides may try to collect a fee once again.
In Vietnam, the scam with merchants flourishes in full swing, they love to slip bills of smaller denominations than necessary, and it becomes very difficult to prove the opposite. Many tourists even throw this idea, preferring to part with ; blood earned ;.
