    ITT: common scams of your country that foreigners should be aware of

    Mine: Romania
    Scam: The Maradona is a scam that is very common in Romania, especially in the capital Bucharest. Someone will approach you and attempt to engage you in a conversation (in English), typically - although not always - about something vaguely illicit. Seconds later, two men will appear in plain clothes but flashing legitimate-looking police badges. They will accuse you and your "new acquaintance" of some illegal activity (usually 'currency swapping', a totally ridiculous charge in a country where legitimate currency exchanges are more common than streetlights), and demand to see your wallet and/or passport.

    Rest of the article:
    Do not hand them these things! Keep your documents and belongings in your pocket and out of sight....
    Walk away, or yell, or tell them outright that you do not believe that they are the police, or suggest that you all walk to the lobby of a nearby hotel (or police station) because you are not comfortable taking out your wallet or papers in the street, or whatever. These con men thrive because the police fail to enforce laws against non-violent crime and because some foreigners are easily gulled. They will not physically attack you: the treatment of violent offenders is severe - these men are professionals, and they would never be foolish enough to chance a physical attack. Do not threaten or try and fight them.

    Just keep in Transylvania and don't speak to Romanians and Gypsies and you'll be all right in Romania. You don't want to go elsewhere anyway.

    Hungary: Dirty gypsy or another kind of similar scum walks up to you and asks for money to travel home to his/her hometown. They're too stupid to speak foreign languages (or as a matter of fact, hungarian correctly) so watch out if they're trying to follow you.

    Just avoid gypsies like plague. If you give them money or pay attention to them you're just encouraging them. Spare the money for the street musicians.

    USA: Niggers will come up to you and try to sell you cocaine. Don't buy it, it's usually cut with really shitty stuff that if it doesn't kill you will at least ruin the high. Weed is usually safe, though a ripoff.

    Scotland: Someone offers you weed, you go somewhere to buy it and he mugs you. Or he just mugs you.

    We aren't a subtle nation at all.
