"Who uses banks these days? Let's change our money with that creepy dude."
😂😂😂😂
Idiot tourists i guess?
@@LowKeyLifeHKD Yeah this is true
I think some fall victim to their own greed of a higher exchange rate and can’t see the obvious.
Exactly. I thought the same thing.
The cops are coming and You're going to jail.
Scammer: ok no problem
i was thinking this inside my head too
You’re
And yet no clip of police as said at the end either..
It's "gypsy privilege". If you will live there, you will know, that they are not afraid of police because nothing ever happened to gypsies. They have a special imunity in Czech rep., Slovakia and... They are doing this every day, police know about that, but they can't do nothing. If policeman in this country arrest gypsy there is chance that he will be kicked out of his job for racism. For example in Slovakia is 500 000of them in 5mil. population country and 90%of them are like that or worse and 90% of them are criminals. This 10% gypsy population in Slovakia are behind more than 50-70% criminal cases in country. Because they know that nothing is going to happen to them. For example about 1-2months ago one of them Štefan and his GF from Dobšiná killed and robbed a guy (70meters from police station) only because he was protecting staff in bar in which he terrorized people because no one wanted to give him alcohol for free . He was charged only 7 years (if he will be white, he will be charged 20y+) BTW: In the time of killing he should be behind bars for other crime. But procurator neaded to be politically correct, so they were investigating him outside bars... Couple years ago gang of young gypsies break to house of one old man just for fun+steal some things , they chopped him with axes. His body parts where found spread around whole house. What where they charges? 7 years, 4 years, 3 years in jail ....BTW: Slovakia is country with small kill rate. That is why they are not afraid of police. Because they don't even care about such a small crimes in their sub"culture"... And I'm not talking about fact, that they have kinds only for financial benefits from country + they have they personal kid robbers instead of sending them to school. Most of them have houses /flats for free from state. Other people? If they want flat or house they need to work 20-30years for that... And 90% of them have no job. Because they have money from state... And so on... I can talk for days about they privileges...
@@vibe5416 its like he goes to jail every week
This is no lie, in a 2019 trip to Prague this exact group of guys (the first two in the video) approached me just off the town square. Can't believe they're allowed to operate this freely!
So they managed to get out of jail
Police is corrupted...
@@SoulArtSound It's not that, Czech police is one of the less corrupt in general, these people are just never going to give up, and usually they get away with a fine or very short jail time and go straight back into it......
Probably police get their share too from these these thieves
They use the Get out of jail free card..
Some advice if you are going to attempt anything like that: Do NOT put your hands into your pockets. You will not be able to defend yourself and a threatened (cornered) criminal might draw a weapon thinking you are reaching for a weapon in your pockets yourself. Keep your hands somewhere in front of your stomach area, that will enable you to react in time ot any physical attack.
This is not america, they're on camera and in the public area, you know surrounded by people
@@alexc8253 I still wouldn't bet my life on it. Even though you are correct, sir.
Using guns on the street of Prague is very rare here. He would get immediately into all news and would be caught very soon like the murder of Michal Velíšek in 2005.
@@JBereza I didn't mean a gun, a knife is a weapon too or not? Knife or brass knuckles, whatever...when you are cornering a person and threatening him to take his freedom away (going to jail), I wouldn't suggest to put your hands into your pockets. That's all. Be prepared.
@@moos5221 Yes that makes much more sense and is much more likely scenario.
The girl: i got scammed and he cheated me

I watched your videos before my current trip and I thank you guys for prepping me for scams. I had an attempted scam last night. I entered the afterhours lobby of a large, commercial bank to use the ATMs. The first machine was not working (I think jammed by the scammers), so I moved to another ATM closer to some other people. As I was getting my cash, a guy asked me if that was my wallet on the floor. In a few brief seconds, I glanced at the floor, felt my own wallet on me, said "No, it's not", slammed my hand over the cash dispensary and heard guy #2 say "oh, that's mine." I quickly pocketed my money and card while guy #1 criticized me for a harsh tone in my response. I don't think I would have moved so quickly without watching your videos and being on guard. Thank you.
More power to you and your team. Watched your videos a few years ago as my wife and I were going to Prague. Thanks to you we avoided the con artists and had a great time. My eldest soon is going nest week with his friends, and I advised him to watch your videos, and avoid the rip of food vendors, dodgy cabs, weird "classic" car rides, Asian head massage shops, "hemp" goods and currency exchange scams

You’re so brave. Thank you for what you do for others
I love this video. I saw these scammer often in Old Town when I was spending time in Prague. I have been to Prague so many times, and it is my favorite city in the world to visit, but the scammers are everywhere unfortunately. I've helped other people to avoid them as well. I was supposed to be visiting again last year, but of course the pandemic happened. Next time I'm there, I want to buy you a beer, you are doing great work with this channel.

In my country there's no point in calling the police because many times they are with the thieves... It's very very hard to be a honest person in Brazil. Anyway, you did a great job!!!
Corruption sometimes gets so widespread that people might even shame you if you call the police on these criminals
@@mammadtori3964 that's true, unfortunatelly. I was called dumb sometimes just because I didn't want to take advantage of others. Dishonesty here is called "jeitinho brasileiro" (the brazilian way) 🤷🏻♀️

Yes moron we just watched the video, you are not a special snowflake for quoting it
Love what you are doing dude! I'm such a fan, learning so much from your videos!
thank you so much for filming the video. I was in Prague two months ago and here is what I found...
1. The exchanges at the airport have super lousy rates as well and mostly people go along with it bcz they think airports should have legit things...
2. The corner shops open til late have overpriced items as well (2X, 3X...) I get that we should pay a little more money for stores that open at midnight for us but not at doubled and tripled prices
anyway I have met a few unfriendly locals but all in all, it is a lovely city and beers are cheaper than water!! love it!
"your gonna go to jail"
"yes ok no problem"
I guess police just using them for a profit.
Russell Peters would be proud after seeing this 😂

Respect. You are vested in your city's image and willng to expose cheaters. Tourists will definitely come and spend their money in Prague because of people like you
Seen a bunch of your videos, great content. You got balls of steel for confronting them like that. Subscribed
It’s kinda funny, how he just talks about them, and they’re just standing there looking guilty. Lol.
Adorable Scorbunny 😂😂😂 I was wondering the same ahahhah
Lmao thought the same thing😂
Its all fake their reaction is always same , it must be acting
Funny how they let Janek to call the police hoping he wasnt serious

@@Taco480 :D
It does not work like this in Czechia...
Sadly, its true my friend. It seems not to be the first time they see cops. So probably, they will spend a few hours in the police station, make some deal, and pum, go back to the streets, scaming is usual in touristic places (they have the blessing of the autorities, they ay a fee to «work» there - more money for everyone). I saw this before in rome.
Make no mistake, Albanians are commiting crimes in the UK too. They're coming here in boat fulls.
So how you know he is Albanian? And hes not lying.
Come to Albania and you will change your mind about the people of that country
Big respect guys! 👍🏻 Keep going!
I'm from Belarus and to tell you the truth you can't even use those in our country, they're outdated. Now we have completely different money ;)
Але яны застануцца цэннымі для калекцыянераў!
Mary Sobol Who cares, Belarus is a third world shithole like Russia 😂
Look guys, another basic bitch called "Louise" who judges countries and people based on their wealth.
Meat bags like her are too narrow-minded to see the beauty of eastern Europe and its people and thus shallowly judge.
Why? No one can influence where he's born, so please don't be rude...There are still people who love their country. Czech Republic, as you can see, is not an ideal country, but I still love it.
Louise I've seen 10 times more third world conditions in both western European cities like Paris and London AND throughout USA than I ever saw in Russia or Belarus. You might want to visit a place before casting your judgements.

have you encountered anyone who tried to cheat you, or have you avoided such situations altogether?
some guy tried to talk to us and ask us to change money on the street lol other than that no. we used liftago app to call taxis and the advice from these videos to avoid other issues.
Who the hell changes money on the street from strangers anyplace?... jeez
@@jimimased1894 We think it is crazy stupid, but if you grow up in a safe environment you don't know. You do not expect a random person to do a thing like this.
Bad if you grow up in a completely hostile environment as well because you are always on guard. You can never relax lol.
Balance is key, nobody is stupid. They just haven't learned by experience yet.
Sorry but I don’t understand the people that would change money on the street when approached by guys like that?!!! The situation screams “scam” miles away

@FlyingJesy cool bro , u are an inspitation bro
You are doing great work !
Now this was absolutely amazing
I mean, why would you change money with a guy on the street when you have a changing store in front of you 😂
Because they offer you a better price :/
Silver Swift lol that’s not the point. So you are saying you would change money with a random dude on the street right in front of a changing store just because it is “cheaper”?
People should be careful with their money, there’s no reason to change money with this guys 😂
Tourists may think the guy outside of the currency exchange store is working for the exchange store. Sales man, avoiding lines ect.
The stores are also scammers. I have been all over Europe and these scammers are all out there unfettered. It is amazing.
People are just DUMB
In the next video:
Scammer - Who the hell are you?
Janek - you all know exactly who I am, say my name...
Scammer - you are my problem...
Janek - you're goddamn right.

Thank you Honest Guide.
Me: Never planning to go to Prague
Also me: I must watch these videos, just in case
Facts
Actually is good that you see this, cause in other countries they do this too, but they over charge you and give less of the real amount or they provide you fake money
Bitch please, no one cares why you are watching
tbh its everywhere.. ruined paris for me seeing those crooks
That's a stupid mindset. Old Prague is a gorgeous city. Just use your head.
Bank:
*Exists*
People:
*Hey, lets buy some money from this bastard standing on the top of the street*
Facts
My thoughts exactly... like, wouldn't any fucking typical person be like 'alright man well if your currency is worth so much why aren't YOU either using it or converting it at the bank?" Like wtf I honestly do not understand how this is a sustainable scam, but it is. (?)
Looks like you’ve never traveled before.
While traveling, you may find different banks, which have different coefficients for exchanging currency.
Let’s say at one place you may buy 500 krons for 5 dollars, and in another, you may buy 800 krons for 5 dollars. See the difference? The coefficients usually depend on the location of the bank, or whatever place you exchange money in.
That’s why people sometimes exchange money with those “people on the corner”. I am not defending that, it’s obviously stupid, just trying to give a better idea of how it works while traveling and why people may do that.
Tourists are special kind of people, especially if they are very foreign from the places they visit

Absolutely. These are the type of videos that need to go viral.
This is now in your own community too, no matter where you live.
FACT!
Mostly pro pick pockets.
Apart from my other comment I left, there are seriously high pitch alarms that are freely available to attach to a wallet or handbag. Snugly fitted in, so IF they manage to remove it from your person.. they are running with a siren on that is at highest pitch. Basically it works by being immediately activated so you are actually BESIDE them! And yes, they may run but they will quickly want rid of this!!!!!
Going to Praha first time in 1990 we have been warned about this. I can't believe that scam is still around.
then look around western cities like Paris and Rome and maybe you will udnerstand that its not somehow particulary our country :)

You would have to be pretty stupid to change money to a random guy... No?
Elias Bargee exactly
Yes
Not really. People come all over the world from different cultures. For example, in some towns, it's not uncommon to keep your door unlocked. Meanwhile, in other cities or towns this is a deathwish or invite to burglars. People come from many different cultures and that affects their perceptions of how other people act and their morality.
yes exactly natural selection
