NAIA Taxi Scammers worse than before
Just landed in NAIA now. I know them scammers that wanna charge you 1.5k + to makati / BGC already since years. The first time I came here years ago they got me.
So they are still there and now even worse they already approach you inside the airport. I always dodge them off since then. Just now a guy approached me and offered me a taxi. I asked him how much? He said 1.5k to BGC. I said no thanks and you are a scammer. He got all upset lol and told me I should not say that to him.
When will they do something about this? This is the main gate to this country and they always bragging about how they are preventing scammers, fixers etc. yet the first thing people encounter here is a big scam.
Even worse these guys wear their IDs around their necks which to a normal Person suggests trustworthiness and safety. The opposite is the case here! Also their official receipts they give you and even announce to make you feel even more safe are supposed to suggest the same.
It’s kinda sad that they can still operate there without consequences. I feel like everyone is trying to screw everyone in this country sometimes and it’s really kind of sad.
For anyone arriving now and taking a grab to avoid this shit: grab has new pickup spots now you need to walk past bay 14 inside the garage. They won’t pick you up at the bay anymore.
