無論在巴黎、羅馬、米蘭抑或巴塞隆納,大部份扒手都是吉卜賽人gypsies,可是在巴塞隆納,不止有吉卜賽人gypsies,更有來自南美洲的秘魯、智利等國家的流動人口在找生計。有位阿根廷朋友告訴我在秘魯、智利有專門教導扒手的學校,有訓練學校教授埋身技巧!你服未?
手法無恥!
今夏要到西、葡、法國、意大利的朋友請提高警覺!
小心吉卜賽人,尤其一大群埋身的婦女及小孩,一但看中你是善良及有同情心便會待機而動,她們拿著雜誌來掩護,先由大群小孩走來討錢,叫 please , please !help! Please ,please, helps ! 當你望著雜誌是什麼一回事,另一名年紀較大的孩子便會向你的手袋,下手!這時最好離開,盡量保持距離!
因為要是你己亮起紅、黃燈,把手袋緊抱,她們再用人海戰術,把你們包圍,年長婦女再出動閃電手到男士的西裝內袋!幸好被我們當場看穿,但她們好手快差點成功,所以見到吉卜賽人要無鞋挽屐走,即閃!
第一次到Barcelona,差點飲恨,吉卜賽黑扒手點一**
那年秋天第一天到Barcelona,由於到達酒店已近黃昏,
晚上外出吃飯,想著吃一點地道西班牙菜,
在 Place de Ajuntament (ciutat)有很多有 氣派的餐廳,
有幾間門外也大排,由門口到廠廣場中心的雕刻,這時オ九時,
再等下去十一時也進不了氣派的餐廳!那天還是星期一!
好又一餐,唔好又一餐,水晶晶建義找間有位的 Pizzeria & tapas
bar 算吧!只是我家的泰狄熊是地道意大利人主張 slow food ,
永遠不會吃 Fast food, French sandwich,行了廣場一轉,
也找不到,於是退而求其次選了其中一間有很多standard Tapas 圖
& Paella 的小 cafe,誰知千簡萬簡,簡了一間黑店,
去吃飯也比人盜同信用唁資料!
各位盜用信用咭的資料黑點之一
小心Place de Ajuntament (ciutat)中間的 Pizzeria & Tapas Bar !!!!
你們最後點知會比人盜用信用咭的資料呀?
回到家中一個月後,泰狄熊收到信咭的月結單statement ,起初不以為意,泰狄熊一般不會 counter check! 由於外出工作加旅行三星期,又是在西班牙小島及南部,再加上巴塞隆納的吉卜賽扒手,於是水晶晶便替泰狄熊 cross check 信咭的月結單。
疑點: 一看 $$$$$ ?? 怎麼會用這麼多 $$ $$$ ?
我們只吃了兩餐飯 ?
疑點二: 再看交易的商店,珠寶店?3000 ? 7000?
泰狄熊買珠寶?結婚週年未到,是買給誰?是買給別人?
疑點三:交易地點Barcelona, Madride? Tenerfie? XXX?
我們沒有到Madride? Tenerfie( Canary Islands ), XXX!
疑點四:交易日期是我們回來的幾天後,好在有 palm !
疑點 五:而同一天不大可能在三個不同地方出現!
再向泰狄熊証實有沒有到珠寶店,答案是沒有!
那時有少少失望不是買珠寶給我!
再問: 你到過Canary Islands嗎?怎麼我跟你一起也不知!
你沒有坐直升機由 Malaga 來回Tenerfie(Canary Islands)吧!?
因那天水晶晶去了 Granada 一天 day trip! 看來也不大可能!
於是與泰狄熊再詳細較對,我們二十八日回來,
那珠寶店的交易日期是我們回來後才交易的,
於是到銀行查詢交易的單據,同時要求銀行查核問題所出,
因泰狄熊有在摩納哥油站交易的紀綠,不在場証據,
相方也懷疑信用咭的被盜用,於是立刻報警兼截咭,
二星期後接到銀行通知証實是信用咭資料被盜用。
回想在那間黑店等侯埋單時,待應起先看著信用咭有點遲疑,
等了很久二十多分鍾後三吹四請待應才把信用咭拿回來!
而且待應是從外面把信用咭與收據拿回來的!
加上那時在西班牙用法國信用咭是不用案密碼的!
我地不用負責那些有疑的 transaction, 而且簽名不對!
現在於西班牙購物用信用咭結帳,要出示身份証明!
南美人更離譜!待續!
How can I not missing the other European countries? I have never seen such a clear blue sky here...
回覆刪除[版主回覆07/01/2008 03:11:00]the second pic was taking in spring time, few years ago! may be not the same season.
咁如果有不在場 証據, 係未可以refund嫁?
回覆刪除[版主回覆07/01/2008 03:13:00]我地不用負責那些有疑的 transaction, 而且簽名不對!
法國都好多 GYPSIES 呢!!!
回覆刪除餐廳食野都會被竊用信用 card 資料, 好驚 wor... 真係要萬事小心!
[版主回覆07/01/2008 16:29:00]我好怕GYPSIES ,見到會攬到個袋實!
現在學精了,在西班牙吃飯好少用credit card,
不會只一咭旁身,因會有走失!
真的很恐怖呀!
回覆刪除都知道歐洲是扒手,但真的想不到是咁厲害!
那最後是不是不用找那卡數!
[版主回覆07/01/2008 03:19:00]我地不用負責那些有疑的 卡數 , 而且簽名不對!
好得人驚.........
回覆刪除咁最後有冇得退返錢俾你地呀
[版主回覆07/01/2008 03:20:00]最後是不用找那卡數!
我同老公有一年响 Turin 都試過比人盜用credit card info,事後是信用咭公司通知我們,老公一向沒有 check statement ,反而是 carte bleue 公司 spot 到。 我們當然不用負責咭數,那次是在法少有的 excellent customer service !
回覆刪除[版主回覆07/01/2008 16:45:00]現在學精了,在西班牙吃飯好少用credit card,
不會只一咭旁身,因會有走失!
意大利的遊客區也是一樣,是偷 arc 拐騙的熱門地!
我去旅行,好少用credit card,用現金多!
回覆刪除[版主回覆07/01/2008 16:25:00]現在學精了,不會一咭旁身,因會走失!
我地都試過比人盜用信用咭資料,不過就唔係去餐廳,可能係上網 shopping 啩! Anyway, 咁多扒手咁行街都行得唔安心囉?你咪唔可以用手袋囉?
回覆刪除[版主回覆07/01/2008 16:35:00]我好怕GYPSIES ,見到會攬到個袋實!
行 La Rambla, 有人無 渣住張椅撞埋黎,不知是否在造戲,
引開你注意再下手,有什麼事雙手攬到個袋實!
好得人驚......
回覆刪除這是其中一理由我同肥蟲覺得要離開Barcelona的。 怎可能讓自己生活沒安全感的呢! 一日都聽到幾單恐怖野發生係朋友身上, 我們二年內只被偷了兩部手機, 只可用幸運來形容了! 扒手係 artists, 手藝超凡! 如果比肥蟲講有關同樣 topic, 三日三夜都說不完呢!
回覆刪除[版主回覆07/01/2008 16:38:00]這些經歷要講出來分享,等大家去玩時注意!
聽來真係好得人驚
回覆刪除oh la la, il faut que je vérifie les transactions de CB alors, je n'ai jamais fait attention !
回覆刪除通常旅行我都唔用信用卡,就算係香港去食飯我8成比現金,因為侍應攞咗我將卡,又唔係我視線範圍內,驚佢唔知有冇做手腳。我地都去過幾個扒手黑點,皆因我地著得好似大嬸及表叔,佢地仲光鮮過我地,所以好安全!
回覆刪除[版主回覆07/25/2008 02:00:00]we ar eusing the French Credit card, have to put a pin code in it now even it is in a restaurant.
Yes,you are right, South American,Romanian gypsies,Moroccan....are "Dangerous people",especially gypsies,even spanish advoid them too,they are trouble maker!
回覆刪除嘩~ 聽落都覺得好牙煙呀﹗
回覆刪除咁最後係咪都 唔駛 繳交果幾條非法盜用既單呀?
回覆刪除[版主回覆07/25/2008 01:54:00]yes, no need to pay for it as it is very obvious, a fraud !
Hi it's the first time I come up to your blog. So many nice pictures! I've just been to Barcelona, and our racksack was nearly stolen by a young man near the musical fountain at night. We were taking pictures and our bag was left on the wooden chair, and my husband was standing just next to the chair. I was supposed to keep an eye on the bag but it happened that I turned around for ~3 seconds to look at the beautiful fountain behind me. And when I looked back,( and at the same time my husband turned and looked for the bag,) it was gone. And a man (I'm not sure about his origin though, sun-tanned, black hair) was turning around with our bag in his chest. My husband stretched out his arm and asked the bag back, and luckily that man gave him back. It was all in a sudden that we didn't know what to do.....I mean we didn't scold him, hit him, shout for help, or catch him to the police. It was a very very bad experience really. Though we knew we needed to be very careful about thefts in Europe, it turned out that we made this mistake. Ai....what a bad thing to happen in this beatiful city. I wonder how many tourists had this experience!
回覆刪除[版主回覆07/25/2008 02:00:00]thanks for your message, I heard a bout two girls from Hkg being punched by two eatern european thieves right on the train in Madrid. No body dare to help them while they were shouting for help.
係意大利, 用visa卡買野時都要出示身份証. 不過好似只係外國人先要出示囉. 多謝你俾呢篇文章我睇呀.
