1, fraudulent means

2, low-cost, free group attraction

Step 3 arrange shopping during the trip

4. Induce tourists to buy goods at high prices.

Criminals often take advantage of the enthusiasm and frugal habits of the elderly to go out to play, organize tourism activities at unreasonable low prices or even free of charge, and then arrange various shopping links during the tourism process to sell goods to the elderly at prices far higher than the market, so as to make profits.

The elderly should pay attention to the following points when traveling:

(1) Establish a positive view of tourism consumption, put an end to the idea of simply pursuing low-cost tourism, and advocate a tourism model based on safety, health, socializing and enjoying life.

(2) When traveling with a group, you must find a regular travel agency and arrange a certified tour guide. Regular tour groups will have more formal travel processes and personal and property safety precautions. Don't trust tour groups with the slogan of "low price and free" easily. You would rather spend more money and choose a safer way to travel, so as to reduce the risk of being cheated and ensure your personal safety and financial safety.

(3) If you find anything unusual during your trip, you must keep calm and avoid confrontation. Conditional to take video, photo and other ways to collect evidence, keep the notes and transfer records left by compulsory shopping, and report to the relevant departments in time afterwards to safeguard their legitimate rights and interests.
