  Here’s the 💩-on-the-shoe scam <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iKJoMO0vJ5c">https://youtu.be/iKJoMO0vJ5c</a>.<br>🔞 A lot of sleazy dance bars have popped up in this area too, watch my undercover investigation &nbsp;<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mqewOH5mxNM">https://youtu.be/mqewOH5mxNM</a>.<br><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_uqgEJrCSrQ&amp;t=201">03:21</a> I&apos;ll report back if Manisha and I have twin boys. He couldn&apos;t tell me my mother or ex-girlfriend’s names either. Just remember, nothing is free on the streets. Beware of fake friendly strangers.

  It’s so sad that when all the scammers see Karl and just assume he is a foreigner but actually Karl lives in India

  Moral of the story: Never give money to someone who follows you or forces you to donate.

  Class one, I worked in India for a year, the beggars in the market are a true action to follow. This guy had no legs, someone donated some money, he said thanks. Within 15 mins, he got out of the hole with both legs.

  <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_uqgEJrCSrQ&amp;t=308">5:08</a> “You got to learn to say NO!” &nbsp; - The best advice!<br>I used to be very soft-hearted and people were taking advantage of me because of that including the so called “friends” back then. It took years for me to learn to say no. If someone is around you because of benefits only, you’ll realize the truth the first time you say no.

  I fell for the hotel tariff scam while working in Bengaluru. &nbsp;A man came up to me with a story of having to be in the City but he cannot afford the hotel bill (if I recall). I paid something, but less than he wanted. &nbsp;A month later (when I was more of a veteran to life in India), the same guy came to me with the same exact story when I was downtown around MG and Brigade. &nbsp;I lost it on him, and made a scene, as I was frustrated and to let others around know not to fall for the scam.

  Good job Karl showing us foreigners what to watch out for. I usually just say no and walk away.

  This is just one of my top 3 reasons why I&apos;d NEVER consider travelling to India. <br>1. Scammers <br>2. Extreme heat/humidity <br>3. Contracting the notorious &quot;Delhi belly&quot;
