The French Lost Ring
If you are willing to travel to the land of Romance; Paris, then you should be aware of this scam that became very popular recently. A person would approach you holding an expensive-looking ring or a valuable item claiming that you dropped it. When you say it’s not yours, they’ll offer you to keep it anyway.
When you agree to that since it is a sweet gesture, they will start manipulating you into giving them some money because he/she is “poor”, while reminding you that they are the person who just “gave” you a valuable item.
If it happened to you, don’t accept the ring and walk away. Don’t let scammers ruin your Romantic vacation.
