Japan’s 8 Biggest Tourist Scams and How to Avoid Them

What this video shows

From the guide “Japan Travel Scams: Recognise the Setup and Choose the Right Help”: The most useful warning signs are specific behaviours: a street tout choosing a bar for you, a new online acquaintance steering you to a particular venue, a card charge you did not approve, or pressure to withdraw money.

The guide goes on: “6. Japan travel scams FAQ”. These answers distinguish what the official contacts can do from what they cannot promise. Keep records and explain the facts to the service whose role matches the problem.
