Uobičajene prevare u Kaunas, Lithuania i kako ih izbjeći

TaksiKaunas airport arrivals and terminal exit

1. Unlicensed airport drivers

Kako funkcioniše: Drivers approach passengers inside or just outside the terminal offering rides without a meter and with inflated flat rates, sometimes claiming the official rank is closed or prices are fixed higher.

Kako to izbjeći: Walk to the official taxi rank or book through a licensed app like Bolt or Uber. Agree on a price or verify the meter before departure.

MjenjačnicaCentral squares and tourist areas

2. Poor-rate exchange booths

Kako funkcioniše: Exchange booths near central squares advertise attractive rates but apply large commissions or poor mid-market spreads, especially on small or cash transactions.

Kako to izbjeći: Use bank ATMs for cash or pay by card. If exchanging, compare the effective rate with the day's official rate before handing over money.

Javni prijevozBuses and trolleybuses citywide

3. Unvalidated ticket fines

Kako funkcioniše: Tickets bought on board or via the app must be validated as you travel. Inspectors issue on-the-spot fines to passengers without a valid, validated ticket.

Kako to izbjeći: Buy and validate before boarding using the official ticket app or on-board validator. Keep your ticket accessible during the ride.

Ulične prevareCentral market, bus and train stations, crowded events

4. Distraction or pickpocketing

Kako funkcioniše: In busy areas, groups may bump, ask for directions, or create a distraction while a partner lifts a wallet or phone from a bag or pocket.

Kako to izbjeći: Keep bags closed and in front, wallets out of back pockets, and stay alert in crowds and at station entry points.

Restorani i baroviHeavily touristed central dining spots

5. Unclear bill additions

Kako funkcioniše: Rarely, tourist-oriented venues add unrequested service or cover charges or present a bill with items not ordered, relying on tourists not checking.

Kako to izbjeći: Review the full bill before paying and question any line you did not order. A stated menu price should match the charge.

Bankomati i karticeATMs and card terminals citywide

6. Dynamic currency conversion

Kako funkcioniše: ATMs and card terminals offer to charge in your home currency at a poor rate instead of euros, adding an unnecessary markup on withdrawals and purchases.

Kako to izbjeći: Always select to be charged in euros and decline the conversion offered on the screen or terminal.
