Scams to watch for in Philippines
- Taxi drivers refusing the meterThe driver bypasses the meter and demands a higher fare. The demand can be double the metered fare.
- Taxi driver claims to have no changeThe driver claims to have no change so that you leave a larger tip. Morning requests for coins can also be a normal practice, so the request alone does not prove a scam.
- PickpocketingA thief takes money, a phone or other valuables from your pockets or bag without you noticing.
