Description
The scariest person on your vacation may be holding a free bracelet, driving an unmarked taxi, offering help at an ATM, or sending a rental agreement that looks almost legitimate. Episode 9 explains how distraction scams, transportation tricks, fake rentals, compromised ATMs, counterfeit tickets, phishing messages, and urgent payment demands target travelers. Scott shares practical defenses: create space, use verified providers, purchase through official sources, enable account alerts, protect your phone, separate payment methods, and know how to freeze your cards. Five minutes of preparation can prevent days of panic - and keep a real travel horror story from becoming yours.
