Phuket tourism four deceptive means to see first, quickly polish your eyes!

Recently, it can be said that it is the best time for island tourism, but we should not just watch scenic spots and play. We don't want to be excited about anything. We should bring some IQ when we go out. Especially in places like Thailand, do you know several common scams to Phuket?

1. Water sports fraud

When you travel to Phuket, you must play water sports, such as water motorcycles, parasols, banana boats, etc. However, you should have a long mind when playing these projects, because you have to go into the pit if you don't pay attention. If you are playing with a water motorcycle, someone will follow you secretly, pretend to accidentally touch your car, and then leave quickly.

When Angelica returns the merchant's motorcycle, the boss will point to the place where it has just been rubbed and say that the paint has fallen off. He will compensate n 10000 baht, and take out the contract you signed before, saying that if there is any damage, it will be compensated according to the price.

Therefore, in order to prevent entering the scam, when playing with water motorcycles, ask the merchant to send a boy to take you in the back seat. The merchant will generally promise, so even if there is an accident, it is not your problem

2. Photo scam

Sometimes when walking in the street or in front of the mall, you will encounter some lovely dolls or animals. They will warmly invite you to take a photo with them. Once you finish shooting, you will be charged. Therefore, once you encounter this situation, please refuse to take a photo with them, otherwise your ticket will fall into their hands in vain.

3. Traffic scam

The most common means of transportation at Phuket airport are toot cars and taxis, but you should also pay attention to some scams. For example, when you tell the hotel destination, the vehicle stops on the way, and insists that the hotel you booked has been closed. Let you go to another travel agency or hotel, and then they take a rebate from it. At this time, But don't believe their nonsense. You must insist that the driver take you to your destination.

4. Gem scam

Gem scams are generally aimed at tourists who come to Thailand for the first time. Some people will see at a glance that you have just arrived in Phuket, so they will enthusiastically introduce you to the local cultural customs and scenic spots, and then casually say where there are gem discounts, which is very cost-effective. When you believe him, you have gone into the pit, because many of the so-called gemstones are fake and ordinary people can't recognize them at all. Therefore, when you want to buy some valuable items, you must go to a regular shopping mall. Don't listen to those 'warm-hearted' suggestions, otherwise you will suffer.
