Scams to watch for in Portugal
- Pickpocketing and bag theftThieves take money, documents or bags while visitors are distracted or squeezed into crowds. Some blend in by looking and acting like other tourists. Crowded metro carriages in Lisbon are a particular risk.
- Theft from rental carsThieves steal belongings from rental cars. This is listed among the most common crimes against tourists in Lisbon.
- High ATM fees and poor exchange ratesSome areas have many Euronet ATMs. These charge high fees and offer poor exchange rates. This is a cost trap rather than a claim that the machines steal card details.
