When travelling in Sri Lanka as a foreigner you’ll no doubt be approached by men who try to appear as friendly citizens. They will attempt to coax you to somewhere, such as a “beautiful temple that you must go and see.” Watch as this man follows me through the streets, desperately trying to convince me to go see the (fake) “Tsunami Temple”, despite me showing zero interest in it.
These scammers and their cheap tricks are not representative of the genuine good people of Sri Lanka. Unfortunately, as foreigner, they will be seeking you out so it would be easy to think that every local is bad when in fact it’s a very small number of bad people.

SCAMMERS ARE IN EVERY COUNTRY BUT IT MATTERS HOW POLICE WORK IN THIS CASEπ
Everyone in comments saying sorry but if they saw u dale they would be just as bad
I wouldnβt be so nice to them.
A firm No usually works.
Dale, you entertain people like this too much. I would just tell them I'm not interested and keep it moving. If you entertain these people you could get robbed…
Tourists need be on the alert for scammers anywhere in the world.
no offense but, lots of Indian and Sri Lankan peeps are born to be scammers
Is this the same fellow that got charged double in the apoteka in Indonesia? Well left and didn't pay double
Still using the tsunami to scam people sicko!
Your biggest mistake is engaging with scammers.
You shouldnβt say one word and completely ignore them.
Bit of a yikes at the end when you just hoped that the scammer would literally die soon.
You got more patience than me, id be pepper spraying him like the annoying nat he is
But whats with that beggar at start?
It's hassling bro not a scam man you don't want to pay 10 dollars for a service man
Turn around and tell him in a hostile voice, β Get the f@@k out of my face before I judo chop you in the throat and kick you in your balls!β πππ
Stupid tourists? Didnt you get your pants pulled down on a beach with horse and camel rides, throwing money at the scammers?
The scam is the ride back.
Simpel do not going there
Amazing how you caught this makes me want to get a body camera
Harald Baldr have the same problem with them
