Common scam patterns
- label. Unmetered taxi overcharge is common in many Chinese cities, where drivers may claim the meter is broken or refuse to use it, inflating the fare. This can leave tourists paying significantly more than the standard rate. Tip: Insist on using the meter, verify the fare beforehand, or use reputable ride‑hailing apps.
- label. The tea ceremony scam involves a seemingly friendly guide offering a traditional tea tasting for a small fee, then demanding a much higher price after the experience. Travelers may feel pressured to pay the inflated amount to avoid conflict. Tip: Politely decline unsolicited tea ceremonies and only join activities arranged by trusted operators.
- label. Fake art gallery scams target tourists by presenting low‑priced “authentic” local artworks that are actually mass‑produced copies. After purchase, buyers discover the pieces are not genuine and cannot be returned. Tip: Buy art only from established galleries or official souvenir shops and ask for receipts.
