Scams to watch for in Iran
- Inflated taxi faresDrivers in Isfahan may start by asking for at least twice the usual fare. In Mashhad, taxis inside the bus terminal cost more than those outside. A high opening price can catch visitors who do not know the usual fare.
- Airport shuttle overcharging and luggage extrasShuttle drivers may inflate the fare or demand extra money for luggage even when there is space. Bags that occupy another passenger seat can also lead to an extra charge.
- Pickpocketing in crowdsA thief takes money or belongings from a pocket or bag while you are in a crowd. Busy transport and places of worship need particular care.
