Unofficial Taxi Drivers: Unlicensed drivers may approach you inside the terminal offering rides at seemingly good rates, but may overcharge or take unsafe routes. Avoid by only using official airport taxi services from designated stands or pre-booking through verified apps and services.

Currency Exchange Scams: Unofficial money changers may offer attractive rates but use sleight of hand, provide counterfeit bills, or short-change tourists unfamiliar with local currency. Avoid by using official airport exchange counters, ATMs inside the secure area, or waiting to exchange money at reputable banks in the city.

Fake Airport Officials: Individuals posing as airport staff or tourism officials may offer 'help' with luggage, transportation, or paperwork while requesting fees or tips. Avoid by politely declining unsolicited assistance, only engaging with uniformed staff at official desks, and never handing over documents or money to anyone who approaches you.
