Nicky said: “When visiting another country and touring the sights, it’s important to stay vigilant when it comes to ticket scams.

“Locals will try to sell ticketsto attractions, buses, trains and other touristy venues and quite often, they’ll claim the tickets are discounted or offer them as a way to jump the line, however, these tickets can be fake or can expire when you try to actually use them.
