Bangkok Ranked Among World’s Top Tourist Scam Hotspots

Bangkok has been named one of the world’s top hotspots for tourist scams, particularly involving taxis, car rentals, and fake tour bookings. A Mastercard Economics Institute report shows fraud spikes by up to 28% during peak travel seasons, with 48% of Bangkok’s cases tied to dodgy transport deals. Other Thai destinations like Phuket also see scams in hotel bookings. The report contrasts this with safer cities like Dublin and Seoul, while warning of rising global travel fraud—especially during holiday bookings. Tourists are urged to book through secure platforms and avoid deals that seem too good to be true.
