[quote=CHROMATOMATIC,402923]I'm new to this forum, but this looks so familiar, I ran into these kind of posts so many times before... I think this happens in every country in the world. Mostly, I must agree, Americans tend to be the selected victims, but that has nothing to do with the nationality but the financial predisposition... (Mass-media does it's thing...) I traveled a lot, mostly trough Europe, and lived in a couple of different countries, and I've seen these kind of things happen every day. People getting ripped off are usually first time travelers, or they are traveling alone for the first time. It happens to everyone so there is no shame in that, but I guess there are a lot of good tips to pick up on forums nowadays. (Like this one here, thanks for that, really :) Some 10 years ago, forums like this didn't exist, so a lot of information was unavailable or selective. But still, even with the best advice and best informational basis that one can have - there is always a certain risk... Stop and think, and than re-think some more - is the best advice, I guess ;)[/quote]
