Common scam patterns

  • telecom_cyber_scam. The Ministry of Public Security listed telecommunication and cyber scams as one of the ten most common frauds nationwide. Scammers may impersonate officials to obtain personal data or money. Tip: Verify any unsolicited calls or messages with official sources before responding.
  • tourist_scam. Petty theft and pickpocketing are reported in crowded markets, metro stations, and popular tourist sites. Travelers should keep valuables secure and stay alert in dense crowds. Tip: Use a money belt and avoid displaying phones or wallets openly.
  • payment_freeze. Foreign travelers often encounter frozen payment cards or online transaction blocks due to security checks. This can leave visitors unable to pay for services temporarily. Tip: Notify your bank of travel plans and keep a backup payment method.

Area notes

  • city markets and metro stations. High foot traffic makes these spots prone to petty theft and scams.
  • restricted tourism zones. Some areas require a foreign travel permit or agency reporting before entry.
  • general city areas. Overall crime risk is low, but standard vigilance is advised.
