Scams to watch for in Greece
- Friendly stranger bar scamA friendly stranger approaches a traveller, usually a man alone at night, and suggests a bar. At the bar, women join them and order expensive drinks, often champagne. The traveller receives a huge bill. Men then appear to pressure or threaten him into paying. This is the most commonly reported major scam against travellers.
- Pickpocketing and theft in crowdsThieves take money or belongings from exposed pockets and bags in crowds. Metro doors are a particular concern, especially when a door seems broken or jammed and people bunch together. Theft is also reported in Faliraki, Kavos, Malia and Ios, though no specific method is described there.
- Counterfeit souvenirs and branded goodsVendors sell fake branded items and imitation goods. In Athens, pavement sellers also offer coins that may look antique but are likely reproductions. In Chersonissos, fake watches and other branded items sell for much less than genuine versions.
